Got Poetry?
Jul. 6th, 2003 11:30 pmFinally wrote something new. Okay, so it steals heavily from Millay's "Ebb," but after four or five months of not writing anything remotely poetic, I'm taking what I can get. I'm about to start issuing challenges so someone will take up the topics I can't seem to get on paper tonight... Anyway, I'll call this a writing excercise and leave it at that.
"Drying"
Drying from the outside in,
my heart watches you
go out with the tide.
A tiny pool that shrinks steadily,
waiting for a wave
that will never come
and darken sand
with your footprints again.

You are an Intrepid-class Scout, Starfleet's
frontline sentry. You're a bit of an enigma.
Your grace and intelligence may go unnoticed,
but people rely on you for your insight and
ability.
Which Class of Federation Starship are you?

Cool. I always thought Voyager was pretty.

You are Tonks. You rock my mittens.
Which Chick from Order of the Phoenix Are You? (Spoilers)
brought to you by Quizilla
Yeah, Tonks!

Jonah and Thera. You just love those wonderfully
adorable head on shoulder moments, like this
one from Beneath the Serface. You love feeling
feelings!
What Sam and Jack moment are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
Awwww!

You are Sam! The Clever one, you always have a
plan!

Heh. This from the girl who's only seen the second half of the second season, the first half of the third, bits and pieces of the sixth, and the first four episodes of the seventh. Oh, and the pilot, too. Not bad, eh?

You like Sam centric episodes...
YAY YOU! You really have taste!! You love Sam's
centric episodes, such great episodes that they
are. (gotta love her)
What centric sg1 member episode do you prefer? (easy)

Is anyone surprised? Didn't think so. :)

Have idea for fluffy/angsty Sam/Jack Christmas fic. Sigh. When it actually gets to be December, watch me write Independence Day fic. (Which I also have a vauge idea for, BTW. Not fleshed-out enough in my mind to actually put anything on paper, though)
*
And finally, I just saw a commercial for CBS' new show, Cupid. *sighs* How quickly they forget... Even though I never saw an episode beyond some mpeg clips, I still liked reading fic for ABC's Cupid. Actually, I wrote a fic for that show...one that could be completed with a few sentences...but which will probably never see the light of day, because I still have some self-respect, and am not a complete fan-whore. Yet.
