WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

The Softest Missile

I went to the door
Said I'll see you later
You came at me
With your toilet paper
Scented, padded, puppy soft
You screamed as you whirled it aloft
It wrapped around my neck and tightened
I have to admit I was a little bit frightened
Until I tugged and snapped the line
And left you shouting there behind
I should have run, but instead I strolled
And you attacked me with the rolls
Hurled head height with all your might
They cartwheeled swift and true in flight
And struck me with a muffled thud
The softest missile to draw blood.
