Okay, so, I lied...

... but this is almost as good as therapy ;). Here's my daily dose of magnetic poetry, and bonus- it's a haiku!.......
www.magneticpoetry.com/play.html

Now I *really* need to stop!

yes, this is another magnetic poetry posting. don't read it if you're tired of it!
this is sort of liberating, though, because I NEVER write poetry like this when i only have my own words to choose from. being forced to make poetry out of a limited amount of words isn't as constrictive as you would think...i've found it to be more freeing of my faculties of creativity! okay, last two for the night (i promise *crosses fingers just in case*)...
