Would terrorists assisted by N.Korea,Pakistan, Iran and the president/Blair need to plant a small nuclear device at the Democratic national convention? Or would some other timing be more appropriate, like after the elections? Would we believe him if he said "I didn't know" again?

LIKE to the falling of a star,
Or as the flights of eagles are,
Or like the fresh spring's gaudy hue,
Or silver drops of morning dew,
Or like a wind that chafes the flood,
Or bubbles which on water stood:
Even such is man, whose borrowed light
Is straight called in, and paid to night.
The wind blows out, the bubble dies;
The spring entombed in autumn lies;
The dew dries up, the star is shot;
The flight is past, and man forgot.

Sic Vita by Henry King
One of my favourite poems. I was just wondering what other people think of it-does it appeal to you? What do you think he's trying to convey?

In the movie "Watership Down" How did the rabbit Holly end up in Efrafa before he found Hazel and the other rabbits. It seems impossible because Efrafa is way beyond Watership Down. Even though none of that is in the book. How did he get all the way over there?

"The Moon, she hangs like a cruel portrait
Soft winds whisper the bidding of trees
As this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart
And the Midnightmare trampling of dreams
But oh, no tears please
Fear and pain may accompany Death
But it is desire that shepherds it's certainty
As We shall see..."

She was divinity's creature
That kissed the cold mirrors
A Queen of Snow
Far beyond compare
Lips attuned to symmetry
Sought Her everywhere
Dark liqoured eyes
An Arabian nightmare...

She shone on watercolours
Of my pondlife as pearl
Until those who couldn't have Her
Cut Her free of this World

That fateful Eve when...
The trees stank of sunset and camphor
Their lanterns chased phantoms and threw
An inquisitive glance, like the shadows they cast
On my love picking rue by the light of the moon
Putting reason to flight
Or to death as their way
They crept through woods mesmerized
By the taffeta Ley
Of Her hips that held sway
Over all they surveyed

I am really into reading a good book and then watching the movie (I just finished reading The Cider Hous Rules and I can't wait to watch the movie tonight). Any suggestions for my next read? (Please no crap like The Firm or other crap - I'm looking for real literature please).

When I was young my parents pretty much let me read what I wanted, quite often on holiday I would read all my books then read all theirs -this never did me any harm... However, I have encountered parents who heavily control what their children read - personally I think this discourages reading and is unnecessary. What do you think? Did/do your parents control what you read?

Had a book published? If so, what was the basic process and about how much did it cost? I'm interested in looking into the publishing world, but know nothing about it. If anyone can shed some light on this, I would appreciate it. And also, if you HAVE had some sort of book published, could you include a link to the website about which company you used (if a site is available)? Lastly, is an agent really required? Or is it possible to bypass having one? Thank you!

Is this book just about a fictional character that has similarities to the author, or is it telling his own story?

I wanted to give my mother a book she can relate to, she has just gone through her second divorce, and actually had to move in with my grandmother. She's starting over and tends to jump into relationships quickly, and has now been dating a man for a few months (3-4) and they are already talking about marriage. I want to give her a book with a story about learning to love yourself, getting back on track after a divorce, and not to be afraid if you are alone.

I've written a couple of novels and queried a few agents. I've even been asked to submit chapters, etc., but alas, my books don't seem to mesh with what most agents want. I've thought about just giving my novel away on the internet, letting people read it, and if they like it, they can send me a dollar or five dollars, whatever they feel the book is worth. Do you think I'd just simply be giving my book away, or do you think readers would actually take the time to mail me a dollar for my troubles?

What do you think about it and how can I improve it?

A stream flows from the writer's mind
through pen unto his paper
thoughts pass steady as morning light
through obstructing branches
for something lost
hidden deep down in murkiness
he searches the heavenly clouds
and the deepest oceans
the exotic wilderness of the human mind
lush, rich and evergreen throughout winter

Beneath the bushes he scours,
to find many missing songs
the cloud rains its words
heart is drawn in letters
shakes, the tree, of its green and dying leaves
mountains turned to reveal its unpleasant side
but a perfumy scent marks an uplifting taste
he rids of his piercing thorns
and hundreds of blossoming flowers

Its feelings pour unto the paper,
washing it of its emptiness
All that was hidden has unveiled itself
paper drinks elixir from the writer's heart
Writer's soul manifests itself on a piece of paper
reincarnated, it lives
A dull paper is now the writer,
Fallen rose finally blooms
in a new horizon's sun
melting the ice,
heart emptied out
he hangs himself and dies.
