I do not write prose, I am a poet. However I would never write poetry based on fictional characters I have only one genre where as I can write about anyone other than myself and that is acrostic; better suited to sappy yet, if I do say so myself, well written greeting cards. For example:

Spellbound

Sparkling dust from stars in the sky

Petals from roses so red you could cry

Eternity sifted from sands in the tide

Lifted from roots that have grown far and wide

Love is emerging; I feel it down deep

Breaking down walls that I carefully keep

Once I had seen you they all fell away

Under your spell my heart you would sway

Now that I have you I feel no rergret

Dreams all came true the day that we met

My more serious poetry tends to be quite a bit darker, I'll post an example in the near future as soon as I locate my flash drives.

And as I promised you here is one of my Angst ridden darker poems which is aptly entitled Dance With The Dark

Dance With The Dark

None but I seem to hear it,
it's one thing that's only for me.
Sorrowful strains of violins fit,
and I wear like a glove minor G.

Notes like the wind sadly blow,
while saxophones moan their lament
The piano's vibrations are low,
as the score to my life finds its bent.

From deep inside of my heart
flow these haunting and sad melodies.
they complement my dance with the dark,
each song composed in all minor keys.

Head filling up with the sound,
on a lonely and starless night.
Dressed in a velvet, crimson red gown,
cold arms of darkness holding me tight.

Like notes in the wind I spin,
trapped in this unholy romance.
Dark holding tighter, my breath grows thin,
though I'm sickened inside, still I dance.

I am addicted to Fictions written about Final Fantasy VII, when I first started reading I was IN LOVE with Reno Sinclair and I will tell you all right here and now that any other last name associated to him REALLY JERKS MY CHAIN! I pointedly avoided ALL things YAOi...BUT at present It is ALL I read and the more graphic the better. I am completely enamored with the Cloud and Sephiroth Pairing but I like Seph with Zack as well. If this world of drop dead SEXY AS HELL men really exsisted I would like to be reincarnated as Sephiroth and Cloud's Kitty Cat 'cause then I could snuggle in their laps , they would lavish me with love, rubbin, and attention, plus I could sleep on the bed and watch them having steamy sex any time I wanted! I'd be the only pussy they had in their life! Hee Hee

Listen All you talented writers out there, I realize I am not a prose writer but I have a little piece of advice for you. Before you begin posting a story have a clear Idea of how the story is going to END I think far too often people get an idea for a story plot and have the impression that it's conclusion will just "come to them" as they see where the story leads itself. WRONG! Of course there will be areas of your story where new ideas will pop up and lead you in a new direction ,but this should only be true concerning specific characters and their reactions to situations and the results of those reactions. In the end it should have very little if any bearing on the story as a whole. It certainly should not be so major as to cause your planned conclusion rendered useless and leave you floundering as to how you will wrap things up. You should always have a rough outline that includes the beginning , the middle , and the ending of a story. I honestly believe if that were the case we would have far less incomplete stories that haven't seen an update in like four years. As a reader of these stories it is my opinion that the expectation of the writer for their story to be read and reviewed derives an equally if not more important expectation by the reader that the story will reach its rightful conclusion. If you are a crappy writer Don't stress...Chances are I stopped reading right in the middle of a chapter and would not finish the story even if it was complete. But all of you unimaginably talented writers out there (fish review recipients) need to understand that although we readers know you are in no way compensated for your efforts and that you all have lives both personal and professional that do and should take presedence over the writting of these stories, we have, through your imagination, imagery and words, become deeply involved in the stories you spin and we deserve to have our involvment rewarded with an ending, we desire closure with regards to the situations endured by characters we have come to love almost as much as we do for situations in our own lives. Just...think about it. And hey, you've got to be DAMN good at what you do to inspire such neediness in your readers yeah? Could you think of a better compliment?

You know you live in 2009 when...

1.) You accidentally enter your password on a microwave.

2.) You haven't played solitare with real cards for years

3.) The reason for not staying in touch with your friends is they don't have a screenname or my space

4.) You'd rather look all over the house for the remote instead of just pushing the buttons on the TV

6.) Your boss doesn't even have the ability to do your job.

7.) As you read this list you keep nodding and smiling.

8.) As you read this list you think about sending it to all your friends.

9.) And you were too busy to notice number 5.

10.) You scrolled back up to see if there was a number 5.

11.) Now you are laughing at yourself stupidly.

12.) Put this in your profile if you fell for that, and you know you did

Many writers don't know the difference between 'your' and 'you're.' If you do understand it, copy and paste this into your profile.

Many writers don't know the difference between 'their', 'there' and 'they're.' If you do understand it, copy and paste this into your profile.

If you've ever copied and pasted something into your profile, copy and paste this into your profile.

Admitting you are weird means you are normal. Saying that your are normal is odd. If you admit that you are weird and like it, copy this into your profile.

If you've ever wondered what you are like in another dimension, copy and paste this in your profile.

There's nothing wrong with arguing with yourself. It's when you argue with yourself and LOSE when it's weird. If you agree, copy this and put it in your profile.

Copy and paste this bunny into your profile to help it achieve world domination. Come to the dark side (we have cookies.)

Racism is wrong and can often times destroy people's self confidence. It's a horrible and cruel way to treat people. To prove that we are all alike, try this simple experiment: Hold your hand up to a light of some kind. You'll see a shadow cast nearby. Now, have someone of a different race hold their hand up too. You'll see, essentially, the same image. Five fingers and a palm. Skin color doesn't matter when you get right down to it. If you are against racism, copy this message and my symbol for equality to your profile.

If you are odd and proud of it put this on your profile.

EMBRACE THE WEIRDNESS! If you embrace the weirdness, then copy and paste this on to your profile and add your name to the list. Emy Em Em, Lady Sakura of the Fated, Animefangirlforever, Rethira,

If you've been on the computer for hours on end, reading numerous fanfictions, copy this onto your profile, and add your name to this list: danyan, Zutara Lover, Archangel's Requiem, Lady Sakura of the Fated, Animefangirlforever, Rethira, Wintersheart

(¸.•´ (¸.•´~pass the ribbon around if you know someone that has survived, DIED, or is living with cancer.

(For that bit it's died. My dad died from brain cancer when I was eight. My brother was six. If you look at that bit below this about gay marriages then glance at number nine. My mum hasn't remmarried. And I turned out alright. Then my first cat - and yes I know, she was just a cat - was pretty much diagnosed with some form of cancer. I spent the last day of her life with her. She couldn't even stand up to use the litter tray and I had to carry her to it. She couldn't eat. She just slept the day away. I had to call my mum to come home so we could have her put down - I couldn't bear to leave her like that, and if you had heard the crys she had made while she struggled to stand, you would agree with me.)

PLEASE READ WHAT'S UNDER THIS!!

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.

The Top Ten Reasons Why Anti-Gay Marriage People Are Stupid:

1) Being gay is not natural. We all always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, liposuction and air conditioning.

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in the world.

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children. And why we force widows or widowers to remarry if they have children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans...
