so i got bored looking at my post. Its stagnation on the blog gave off a wretched odor that my blogging olfactory senses could no longer bear. The revitalization of NIMM will require chronic creativity, thus I offer PROJECT OTTER.
Now for a quick update on Idaho and I. Things are going better. I feel more useful to my coworkers which may be an idol of mine. Needing prayer that I starting attending a church. Haven't yet gone to one of the few churches here(our selection in includes Baptists, Episcopal, Assembly of God, Nazarene, United Methodist.) I've been tired from lack of sleep. But I'm also really excited for a 1970 road bike I bought from Ebay.
Back to PROJECT OTTER!! Here's what I'm asking of y'all, my talented brothers. Write one or two verses. Could be prose, poetry, stream-of-babbling, or if your like Michael random hyperbole. Post it in the comments. I'll post mine the comments by the end of the week, if y'all could too then we can start PHASE II of PROJECT OTTER!!
Love y'all
Nathan
PS An even better idea is for each of us to start a PROJECT. Be thinking
PPS Gals you can participate too. just don't destroy us
Dear Nathan, beginner of Project Otter,
ReplyDeleteYou really picked a very good starter.
Verses and rhymes are totally my thing
As long as you don't destroy me!
--------------------------------------
Destroy is a word used to pull us apart
So in a verse, prose or Hyperbole start
Me thinks we all want to keep tight
So, here's a small one to help us out of this blight.
Yours ever true and humble,
The bumble.E
Roses are red
ReplyDeleteViolets are blue
When I feel down
I think about you
And the cool water thru my fingers
How we talked without a care
We would run thru the graveyard
and disturb the occupants there
We left our worries at the top
as into the valley we drove.
Summer here we come!!
PS....I'm horrible at rhyming thus the crutch of the beginning lines...
DeletePPS....please don't think i'm incredibly sappy.... :D
speak back
ReplyDeletethough it just be gibberish
in silence we won't
ever heal
lean in
cause though i have
no remedy
we now have memories
that are already dear
oh my heart
speak up
aren't you weary of
silence, your thoughts
aren't too precious
to loose
PHASE FLAMINGO of PROJECT OTTER
will be coming after submissions are complete
PS thanks Ellie and Sarah for starting us off!!
I remember your jeans rolled up past your knees
ReplyDeleteSparks from the fire catching on your skin
We played cards until our eyes pull shut
And taste our salty lips as morning dawns
Ocean-foam memories warm my chest
And I don’t feel alone
I’ll take the things that I love best
Bury them deep inside my bones
It’s still snowing in the middle of June
Trapped inside my cardboard life
I tried my best to hold on to you
But only watched you fly away
I remember your jeans rolled up past your knees
