24 Hours, Minus the Love Shack
« on: July 25, 2005, 05:01:35 PM »
Alright, so tomorrow starting at 3 p.m. I'll be joining my friend in a 24 hour poetry marathon. Now, this is a call for those who enjoy doing insane things to join me in this rush of adrenaline as we cascade our minds through hours of poetry as written by our own hands and minds.

Hurry though, and make up your own start time, but remember that you'll have to either go the full 24 hours or have 24 poems written before the final minutes and seconds.

You're a nut.

Oh wait, is this the "Insult the person above you" thread?

Wonderful thought, but I don't think I'm up to it.

Who's ready for a BBQ? Let's toast the bread, light or dark? Wooo! Here comes 3 o'clock.

Ok, so yeah. You may be wondering how this turned out. If you're Tage, you know. But me and my friend ended up doing this, he started a good 12 hours before me. He also made it all 24 hours.

I on the other hand made about 10 hours. I'm proud of all ten, or at least happy with them. If you'd like to gander, here.

I hope you've all learned your lesson. Anything done in 24 hours can be some incredibly long sentence going from topic to topic withuot being interrupted.

I liked this one. Simple and yet profound.

IV. Spin the couch,
turn the window,
find yourself a new
direction.

Maybe also because it reminded me of feng shui.  :)
