The Best Distraction
Dancing With Distraction - First try at free-verse
Diverted attention from the screen in front. Nature is calling
In its glory it bathes my mind and nourishes
Static electricity running upon my skin, as I see it sinking below the vast seen
To the world it waves goodbye in the flashiest of scenes… magnificent and glowing
Radiance unseen before, truly grand… the feeling envelopes the soul
Aloof presence, yet present in all life thriving
Causality of life beginning from its first rising
Towards its power we hunger, that is true, but hasn’t it given enough?
In our daily lives we’re thankful for its brief stay. Fusion of night and day, the role it plays
Onwards towards life we push as we catch a glimpse of it
Night approaches, and we head home as we lose sight of it.

The Whiskered War
A domestic drama; rather, you're witnessing a millennium-old conflict over the fate of the entire planet (and possibly just a smA titanic struggle between wits and strength has been raging in the shadows for millennia: The Great Nibble vs. The Purrsecution. The cats, the furry fighters, the fascists of the feline world, occupy one corner. In the other, mice make up the squeaky squad, the small militia. The reward? Domination over the entire world (and possibly an especially tasty cheese wheel).
