OK, EW, you said you like to write poetry. And, I know meredith is gifted in that area. And jabber, too. I've played around with it some. How 'bout we play a poem writing game, four words to start. Next person creates a four line poem, using the four words, then leaves four new words on the table for the next poet, who repeats the two steps:
1. Writing a four line poem with the four words left by the prior
2. Leaving four new words.

Example:
four words on table:
man, than, scared, fun

1. write poem:

What is more fun
Than a man on the run
Scared by a lass
With more than one a**

2. Leave four new words on the table:

sock, drag, why, boy

Anyone wanna give it a try? Or, is this too silly/stupid? It's sometimes harder than one might think.
