The glass is empty now,
though it wasn't before.
Drained by the lips of an unseen spectre,
the glass is empty
just when i'm dying of thirst.
I can taste the ghost of wine,
left around the rim.
how sweet it would have been
aged under my watch.
now looking at the empty, fractured glass,
I hope, that for you,
it was bitter, flavorless and young.
Are you happy?
Have you drunk your fill?
Never return to this wine cellar.
The glass is empty
And so am I.
Not Half of anything,
This Glass is empty
And so am I.

I only have ONE writing prompt left!
it's promising, but... well, I'll have nothing to do after that. I'll have to hit up Mr. Hunt and the library for more. ALSO! the reason i picked "Empty Glass" for my writing prompt is...... ONE OF YOU JERKS IS STEALING FROM ME! allow me to elaborate. mom lost her keys a while back. "lost" is a term i use loosely seeing as they were pretty much definitely taken. since then, we have also "lost" a sheet of bus tickets, and...... *drumroll* MY ENTIRE FUCKING SAVINGS JAR, ASSHOLE. THANKS A LOT, I HOPE YOU DON'T ENJOY THAT $900 THAT SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN ME ANY NUMBER OF IMPORTANT THINGS, INCLUDING A LAPTOP OR TABLET, ALLOWED ME TO RE-DECORATE MY ROOM, OR GET MY FUCKING WISDOM TEETH OUT. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? GO DIE IN A PARTICULARLY UNPLEASANT HOLE. we filed a police report, and they're say is probably someone we know, because they didn't take anything immediately noticeable or big ticket, like, say, THE CAR, or ALAN'S LAPTOP, or MY TV. and also because it KEEPS HAPPENING. we're getting our locks changed, JERKFACE, so don't bother coming back. i mean seriously, i thought i made better judgment in my friends. i KNOW, i KNOW that 99% of you are SUPER FINE EXELLENT PEOPLE full of love and awesomeness and would never do this but.... well, it looks like one of you isn't. |

Ever look at the "submit" button on the deviation page, and wish you could dominate instead?

Oh, Elaine. I am so sorry this has happened. It's digusting and unfair. And I apologize for sleeping through most of it as well. I was being a lazy jerk.

Fuck, this seriously sucks.

If you want money help, I help. (Large lones of zero interest, and if you wait long enough, I may just forget about them.)

"Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one and the larger yours is the more likely the case is you've been to prison
Although, next time, please don't put the money in a jar. Maybe the bank?
