I love the title pun, Rain of Terror. I’ll be thinking about this one for a while, I can tell.

And what’s freaky, I just discovered Freecycle this week too! :O

Glad to hear about your bicycle, Calan. But if people plan to give stuff away, just beware that there are predators. There might not be much you can do about them, but at least you can keep an eye out.

I know someone who was giving away her stove. She got several immediate responses the same night, but the one she picked turned out to be a guy who just wanted to scrap the metal–boo! It was a nice working stove, and she had made it all clean and sparkly. That guy was not cool.

Keep pedaling Calan, with your little acorn cap!

thanks elizabeth. sounds like a cool short story. i love short stories and to read in general. lately though i listen to short stories on my ipod as i go to sleep. they have to be pretty short or i fall asleep and miss the ending.

the scarlet bird
vermillion in its nature
bleeds its feathers down

the warm liquid drip
dripping down the tree but oh
the red snowglobe land

this reminds me of “the scarlet ibis”, a short story about a sick boy, his brother, an exotic bird, and death.

beautiful art, today especially!

for every action
an equal and opposite
reaction appears

wondrous featherstorm
one death forestalls another
beauty from horror

useless bicycle
cluttering someone’s garage
or Calan’s new joy?

…oh, and yay freecycle! Quite a bit of my old stuff has been rescued from being prematurely entombed in a landfill that way by someone who actually had a good use for it. I save a trip to the dump, I get rid of junk I don’t want, I make someone’s day by giving them free stuff, and I get to feel “green” about it. How cool is that?

The feathers, are they
really red by their nature
or is it from blood?

Well done calan. ^_^ And awesome news about the bike!
