:thumb200487904:    ShopkeeperI want to bottle this feeling up
And sell it to myself in the morning
Grossly overpriced with no family discount.
For the status symbol it implies.
I want to be selfish enough to buy it.
With the delusion that if it works
Everything will be better.
Buying it will make all the doubt,
Self-loathing, disgust and mistrust disappear......
I want to bottle this feeling up
And sell it to myself in the morning....
When I'm too stingy to cough up the cash.
   Sleeplessshe spends those sleepless nights
caught in her little worlds,
cursed by the moonlight, dying in the twilight –
and the darken figure within her dreams
enslaves her,
and the stories she spins of courageous men
end only in tragedies
       (melodies are lost).
but the little bird which rests in her hands
awakens her from within,
hope fills her lungs, her heart, her soul –
and maybe,
when the time arrives and her bird sings
the softest tune,
she will become imprisoned
by sleep.


Love, AndromedaI’m sorry, Cissa. I had to leave you – I just couldn’t stay anymore. I’m sure by now you’ve heard Mother and Father screaming about betrayal, while Bellatrix agrees with them. Sirius has probably popped up to celebrate another family member who found the right ideas.
And he’s right that I no longer believe everything I used to. But it’s not because I believe in everything Dumbledore does, either.
You know how you’ve dreamed of falling in love for years, and the way we’d chatter at night, hoping that one day we’d both have that?
I found that. His name is Ted and I love him deeply.
I’m sorry to leave you, but he’s that dream we both have.
I hope you find it one day, whether it’s with a rich pureblood (which would be better for you, because you wouldn’t have to leave our family behind) or you fall in love like I did.
Love,
Andromeda
   Curious Coffee Break             I’m still not sure how magic came into the conversation over our coffee break, but it managed somehow. It wasn’t so much an unexpected guest brashly deciding to drag a third wicker chair into the middle of our morning; rather, magic entered as an overly-attentive waiter who was clearly aiming for a 20% tip. Little amenities became ours at the tilt of a brow, at the turn of a minute desire. Jonathon’s Frappuccino (butterbeer, with lots of cream) came frothing back up to the brim every time he emptied it—there was never any less cream, either. As for me, my muffin was making faces at the napkin; I was snickering and waiting for the two to kiss and make up.
            “Tell me,” Jonathon remarked as his strudel hovered expectantly near his left ear and whispered, Bite me, bad boy, in breathy falsetto. “How did it

Discussion


Do you ever experiment with point of view (POV) in your writing? Do you have a preferred POV? Have you tried writing in one of the less popular POVs (2nd person, omniscient, etc), and to what effect?
