"hey you all: come inside and play in my Optical Topical Cyphahorn:"


          

the goal: inspiration, exercise, and entertainment.

before we get started, here's a couple possibly helpful tools:
x* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
(the "random article" button on the left menu)
y* http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/profitons
(the "random entry" button on the left menu)



how it works:

1. i'm going to give you all a randomly-chosen topic
2. i'm also going to give you a randomly-chosen word


3. you write SOMETHING (anything, and of literally any length/style) somehow inspired by the -topic- and incorporating the -word- (we'll call those pieces/poems/stories/etc "entries").

4.then you MUST finish your reply by providing a new topic/word combo for the mix (we'll call them "combos" for short now).

important: the Topic/Word should NOT be an obvious match, ie: War/Weapons....should be more like Armageddon/Paintbrush.


5. let the thread get out of control.


note: this WON'T be chronological (like one, then another, then another)...any new combo can spawn as many entries as desired...each of them spawning their own branch of unlimited entries.

note 2: you don't have to use wiki sites, and the topics/words do not have be actually chosen at random (as long as they seem so). Thus, if you have combo in your head you're dying to throw out there, go for it...the only thing to keep in mind is: the less usual/expected, the better.

Let's see how crazy this thing can grow/twist/etc.



So without further freddy adu, Your opening combo is:

Topic: Karate
Word: Kiwi


GO!

Topic: Karate
Word: Kiwi

Karate Kiwi

he relishes every bite
of the sweet kiwi.
i've watched him, hands
in sync, fingers caressing
its skin as if he has moved
up in rank in karate class.
w/ every slurp, i yearn for
his tasty lips to meet mine.
i fall asleep and welcome
a dream of being his next
opponent where we fight out
our differences in a ring
fit for two. in the end,
i'm the winner, triumphant
as i carry my trophy home.

Topic: Serena Williams
Word: brimstone

i'm going to spin this article:
http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/04/06/sports/TENNIS.php

SERENA WILLIAMS RECOVERS TO TAKE HER 666th GAETZAR OPEN TITLE

Serena Williams could feel the woman's panties in the Gaetzar Open steadily slipping away.

She smashed her and made a racket. Then she smashed her racket on the stadium court in disgust and, with two points, turned and put her distressed face into that which her cupped hands were. She was also beginning to feel uncharitably venomous.

"I know I was tight," Williams said after she recovered from 2 feet at once. She recovered too to defeat the fourth seed of Spelena Spankabitczh, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, Saturday and tie Stuffi Gravel to a bedpost. They tied for the most all women's singles bar titties titles at Keeztu Biskin, with five. "Normally I just hose it out. The camera just didn't take the right shots."

Williams considers this event her hometown tournament (interesting) because she lives only about 651 miles, or 15 kilometers, away. Her butt having plenty of friends and family in the crowd creates expectations.

Williams said she also began thinking of the implications if she were to lose after breezing through the fur set.

"I was thinking: I'm almost there! I'm almost...THERE! I would hate to lose it after getting up so much (???)," she said. "It was like, 'How am I going to sleep on brimstone tonight?' "

Spankabitczh said she could sense that Williams, who has won eight Gland Slam titties, was losing control so good...you could have used her loins to light a match.

"I could never believe that a girl who has taken so many Gland Slams, so many tours with mints, could be that nervous closing out a snatch," she said.

In the third set, Williams broke Spankabitczh's will to serve in the first, third and fifth games before Spankabitczh rallied to 5-3 and took off the ninth game to douche. But after 2 hours 25 minutes, Williams ended the match with some powerful head. She dropped her racket and basked in the crowd's cheers.

i feel rather dirty after that lol.

lot's of kick-ass stuff already being posted (redbaron and poetx, damn!). i started it with a different prompt, and i expect the GD and Freestyle versions will each turn into their own unique forest, even if a number of us are playing in both. so if you're itching for more, feel free to do some cross-pollination

to make them immediately pop out to the naked eye, and keep them from getting lost with other replies/feedback

just put it at the front of the subject line, a la:

ENTRY: untitled

ENTRY

ENTRY: Weather;Mandarin

ENTRY: I wish i could breath underwater

etc

Topic: Tropics
Word: Blurred

baked in the sun's smile,
i lay on the beach w/
my hands raised to God
thanking him for the tropics
and their sporadic breezes.
at this moment, there's no
other place i'd want to be;
my eyes are fixated on the sun,
eager to see if my vision is
blurred from the constant staring.
the water eases from each
lid; i blink my eyes, thankful
for sight and blessed to have
my own personal heaven.

Topic: Abuse
Word: Spaghetti

'Mom's Spaghetti'

She crushes the tomatoes by hand
Ripping skin,
splashing red like lost love.

Red, like raw meat
ground beef,
fading from bright red to brown.

Rigid noodles fall into water
Add salt
The body goes limp.

Spices and ground pepper,
A shout, a fight
Mixed into mom's spaghetti

Silence sits still
The culprit is envisioned....
Walking in
Stark raving mad.........
While guests pleasured themselves
With useless rhetoric
Hysterics ensue
Through the violin chords
And petty laughter

He took the podium
Giving his proclamation
His grand manifesto
Followed by staccato

The room shook momentarily
As the 35 mm lens zoomed in

Cocktail napkins flew into the air
As the unmasked culprit dissolved
Into the night......

>Combo: Topic, Poaching ; Word: Fiber

Who ever came up with the idea of cooking a egg about simmering water?
Poached egg they say.
I like my eggs southern comfort way.
You know scramble or fried with some grits on the side.
Who say we don;'t get enough fiber in our diet.
Momma cooks collard greens once a week with her mouth watering cornbread.
Huh, don't know what they talking about.
Only thing I know about poaching
is when the collard greens bubbles
to the top and you can smell
them as soon as you walk in.
Oh, by the way we having beans for dinner.

He was the tortured artist stuck in a vanilla surburb. The closest thing he had to a friend was a cat his mother "rescued."
It shit all over the house, but it ate the food he served and purred when he petted.

He had no choice but to love me. I watched him for a week before I set up our first accidental meeting.
Even now, I feel ridiculous having worn those clothes-- a ripped My Bloody Valentine t-shirt, too tight black jeans
and spike-heeled boots that reached my knees, too many chains hanging every where. He ate it up. He ate me up.

It was almost too easy, really. Took the fun out of the hunt. When I first drew blood, he barely flinched.
I'm ashamed to say that made me rethink my stance on the old methods, striking somewhat random victims
and draining them dry, but it did. I missed the old ways and the adrenaline rush. The blood tasted better and gushed harder.

We spent the night together 4-5 times a week. He let me drink, and we both had good times, until he wanted to taste me too.
I told him I couldn't-- anemic, you know. He lasted nearly two months.

New blue metal steal, viewed several fields away
The glimmer of light
in darkness
isn't the right
shade of bright your life
would like to be apart of.

From your heart's perspective; a calmly, honest message
was sent to your being saying, "This...can cause some damage."
Ehh, Small regret, then. The moment's where I reside.
Not too much mortgage, but, I don't owe a thing in pride.
Up to date with all of my payments.
Focused minds are prone to rise
Can't coincide with androids of earlier models
or rejected prototypes.
