    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    I've been working on a piece of poetry all month, but I haven't gotten past the line


    "There once was a man from Nantucket..."


    I just don't know where to go from there.

    mine so far, ive set up a serene scene and i just cant bring myself to making it decay

    The Day Life Vanished


    Amongst the cobalt of an aquatic surf silver scaled Capelin fish relish and splash in a crimson burnt sun. Fossilized shell occupies the under bank of some shallow waters accompanied with vibrant vitalized lily pads. Marshland surrounds the gentle sea with cotton grass dancing in a violent gust, while sparse rabbits hop tentatively and patiently while adapting to manoeuvre in the passive ground beneath them. The marsh is saturated with age more primarily than liquid. But soon everything hides and waits for reincarnation after sunset cloaks the vast terrain and a seemingly perfect scenery evaporates into the essence of heinous darkness.

    Vitality was assumed to continue as it always did, only no light came on the next subsequent day, vegetation shrivelled

    Then some crazy, psycho, ******* came along and nuked said serene local. And before long zombie and creepy **** started appearing everywhere eating the survivors and consuming all living things. Then a Crazed Rabbit came along with some nutty friends and pulled the hero trick by killing them all and saving the world... only to find out that he himself was infected. He would later come back ala Kerrigan style.

    You can also add in a love story or something to make it more dramatic.

    The next person to suggest something like this is getting their writing license revoked! Love stories don't need to be shoveled into everything!
