Dear Myra (Poem by Mark Borne)

Author's Note: I...have no idea where to credit this poem, honestly. One of my best friends and I collaborated on this poem in last night's dream. I have no idea if I should give credit to that friend, who has no idea this blog ever existed, to credit God for giving me this dream, or to credit someone who, in this case and this case only, is a third-wheel friend who accidentally inspired the poem's creation.

Dear Myra, my long lost friend,
To the one I hid who I was.
I'd give anything for another day with you.

Dear Myra, who once lost me,
To the one I never got to say goodbye,
Now do I give you the final farewell, goodbye.

Each blank has a part of speech labeling it, and that blank needs something that fits the part of speech. For example: Adjective: ________ --> Adjective: Explosive In the end, we usually have a hilarious end result that makes no sense whatsoever. One example is this (which is a real result I got once with my siblings): "Another way to help you fall asleep faster is drinking a nuclear glass of warm vinegar ." First, let's go over some rules. Obviously, keep it family friendly. This still goes for all blog content. Do not submit two words in a row. Submit one, and when someone else does one, you may do another. Submit through comments. That'll make it easier for me to assemble the final result. The category is Medieval Heroes . Here are the blanks: Adjective: Constipated (Kyra) Per

Q/A With Shaly

This was bound to happen, like so much that the one that is probably next is I don't know... The Poet of Steel or Spitfire or Lady Knight, or just some other crazy. Plus, you guys know the drill. Mark's Addition : So...well...yeah, if anyone else wants to do one, let me know. Apparently, this is the thing to do on my blog right now, though I admit, I have no clue why.
