FC #7

It's bedtime. Our team made the save

With the sign we saw Anthro engrave.

   Mandrakk's spiked by the rings;

   Kal-El wishes and sings.

Farewell, Monitors. ...Bats in the cave!

So I know I've been away for the past week or so...

Thing is, I had committed to writing a poem every day, and I stopped last Wednesday, but lemme show you what I've been working on since then:

It's been, er...definitely a project that I work on daily, though I haven't been posting the day-by-day results.

His name is Zephyr Maximilian Tyka, he arrived on Thursday Nov. 8 at 3:40am, and he is completely irresistible.

So when I started this blog seven or eight weeks ago, I committed to writing a poem every day until the baby came, and now he has. I don't imagine I'll be contributing daily any more for a little while, given that I'm busy with the whole new-mommy thing, but I do intend to use this as a landing pad for further output--it'll just be more sporadic. Thanks so much to all of you who joined me for some of the time in making daily work! It was inspiring to me to do this alongside you, and I don't think I could have kept it up if I didn't have some kind of audience & fellow artist community. If you like playing this game, please keep going! I'll join you again when I have brainspace to write daily.

Love love love!
XOXOXO

Red skies always mean chaos. The gist:

Libra's baldies rebel; shapes resist;

   Batman "gotchas" Darkseid,

   Who Omegas his hide;

Kal is back from the future and pissed.

Batman #683

Awful flashbacks, from Jason to Bane,

Melt the cloned minds of waxing Bruce Wayne.

   Could this be his last case?

   The White Glove confers grace

On this master of channeling pain.

Batman #682

In Command "D," he's Lumped-up and drooly,

And Mokkari is cloning him cruelly--

   What's with (alternate) Bruce?

   Alfred helps him deduce,

While he's dreaming of Kathy and Julie.

FC #5

Milton quotes (Frankenstein on a bike)!

Lanterns fly! Checkmate? Darkseid's Fifth Reich!

   Luthor masks his intention!

   Nix ups his dimension!

It's frenzied, but what's not to like?

FC #4

The Furies spread Darkseid's disease.

Ollie falls with the Hall; Dinah flees.

   Can the second-tier powers

   Defend the Watchtowers?

(Omegas turn 90 degrees.)
