For Flight (Free verse) by <~>
Turn me, craftsman, tender as if I were to fit Here gainst your stubbled cheek vanely caught and tense with purpose Eyes closed, in these imaginings I stretch you forever across my length singly focused and intent tuned between present and then Nocked and drawn taut I wait patiently for that release trusting nothing but the surety of vision And freed, bittersweet I speed to the mark unseen

Up the ladder: Colony
Down the ladder: The Abyss of myself

If in the nude ye truly be, answer ye these questions three:

1. I walk on three legs in the morning, two legs in the evening, and four legs at night. What am I?
2. Uncles and nephews I have none, but this man's grandfather is my dad's uncle's son. Who is in the picture?
3. (A)bort, (R)etry, (F)ail?

Those answers were about 10 times as good as the ones I had in mind. Actually I didn't have any in mind. HAVE A GOLD STAR OF SOME SORT.

a throwing star? could it be bronze, inscribed with the words 'love thy neighbor' on one side, and ''ass thyself' on the other, and could i have picked it up at a discount chain for next to nothing, due to the alleged typo, and might i imbed in in the forehead of one of the up-and-comings on the site? pretty please?

Well, being as how you answered the questions three, I suppose that one thing I could grant to thee...
