Shameless attempt at attention-whoring, ask me anything
Edited on Thu Nov-02-06 12:06 PM by reyd reid reed
Two of my newest short-shorts went up yesterday:


http://www.hissquarterly.com/

Edited because I'm an idiot and the link doesn't link directly to my work. Under the "Front View" section, fifth name down.

Sheesh. Some attention-whore I am.

4. Now you do whatever you feel like doing.
And if anyone asks, tell them I said you could. So there.




Thanks.

12. That part I've got figured out. I just can't remember how I hurt it.
And I haven't gone on a bender lately so no drunken black outs to offer up a partial explanation. Personally, I suspect it might be my body's way of telling me to take a day off from house work and play on DU instead.

What's a good, preferably mean-spirited prank that I can pull on my roommates?

15. Give 'em a twelve-pack of cheap beer and then
after they've passed out, put their clean underwear in the freezer and their fingers in warm water.

An oldie but a goodie.

Not mean-spirited enough though, I'm out for blood.

22. You see this?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x5796516

Talk about mean-spirited. You wouldn't resort to something like this, would you? I don't want you in trouble...so don't. try. this. at. home.

26. Progressions, and Shades of Gray.
Both poems seem to stem from some dark deeply emotional well. I don't know if I could tap that kind of a source. I bury my hurts deep and let them rest.. I think it's a "guy-thing". Both poem are beautiful, and unsettling at the same time.

28. Oh.
Thank you...one of them was raw when I wrote it and I thought it would be cathartic.

It wasn't.

The other one came from -- I honestly don't know. I'm really not a dark, depressed soul. I just play one on paper.

35. I got "The document contains no data" when I clicked on the link.
I'd really like to read your writing, and hope you can fix the link.

38. When I clicked it, it worked...
Otherwise, you can try putting hissquarterly.com in your browser thingie.

Mine are under "Front View"

If it still doesn't work, let me know and I can try either PMing or e-mailing or something. I'll copy and paste.

I ain't shy.

39. Hey, I'll always pay attention to you, even if nobody else will.
But I suspect that "nobody else will" will not ever be the case.

Don't sell yourself short, kiddo.
