bk's Creative Writing Kiosk & Mis-Matched Screw Bin: "Dinosaur Steak"

Change can be subtle or

Change may be great

a Dinosaur Steak

Moments imperceptible

or Nail to the Door

A rock in a river

Worn down by the war

A reef's up on Everest

With one loud voice, or

Perhaps Dillinger's Biograph

Movie Night choice?

The wheel on the Auto-car

or the Velocipede

A heart the motor

Many Lakes... Trash Talk: The Results are in!!!

After a humiliating fumble and classic, not-to-be-soon-forgotten 500-point robbery just after the starting gun, bk managed to regroup and retain his championship status as Bag Footsie Champ with a dazzling 2000 points and the final, epic, off-trail snare of a full-size garbage bag!!! What a way to blast-off the 2012 Spring Bag Footsie season!

Was the math and Earned Snag Averages miscalculated in my initial boast? Yes. Is this an historic sport in the throes if its infancy? Of course!…
