I've been ficcing and getting ideas but not actually...finishing things. Or even getting them down on virtual paper. There are a couple of Tales of the Abyss fics on the way (one Anise and Dist-centric, another for the young Keterburg crew), but for now, have the results of a writing exercise I did.

The writing exercise in question was, basically, I had to create a poem out of those magnetic words--you know, the ones you stick on the fridge and make dumb statements of incomprehensibility out of. Or at least I do. I don't know about the rest of the world.

Anyway, I was surprised at how I was actually able to make a pretty good poem out of it--almost as though I wasn't limited to a certain number of words.

Well, enjoy. Mind the sex, now. Yes, I wrote a poem about sex. Using magnets. I think I win something for that.
