fact or fiction
Is it fact or merely fiction? Fact or Fiction explores the myths and beliefs we hold about what makes a good poem and the poetry rules that were made to be broken.

Thaddeus watched the world, standing in a perspective that sees us humans in nature, seeming to make our problems, living out of the realms and expectations that were put on us by nature and the creator as we have grown from the logic already set in stone.

Clouds of smoke in the air. A bird with a stare. A leaf on the ground. Take a step, mon frere. Don't let trouble weigh you down; heavy is a frown. What weighs heavier than gold? False reason. Be proud. What lasts in the day doesn't last in a year; false perception between your ears.
James GreenPublished 4 months ago in PoetsWomen's Hair Now 90% Argan Oil
In a surprising finding from a study just published in the Journal of Hair Chemistry (JHC 20:17, 104–108) it was shown that on average women’s hair globally is now composed of approximately 90% argan Oil. Researcher Takashi Yakamota who led the Japanese team that spearheaded the groundbreaking work said “It has been known for some time that argan oil based hair care products were hugely popular and widely used by women worldwide, but until this data was collected, the true scope of the issue was not appreciated. These products have become so prevalent that they have actually supplanted keratin (the fibrous structural proteins that is or was formerly the key structural material making up hair) as hair’s most important component. What this might mean for the future of hair is an open question. The only thing we know for sure is that it will be shiny, lustrous, and less prone to breakage, but beyond that no one can say.” The tiny country of Morocco’s (currently the worlds largest source of argan oil) minister of culture was said to have wept when he heard the news.
