[WP] Write God's suicide note, and Satan's eulogy. | To whoever finds this, not that it matters
I'm done. I just can't handle it anymore. I tried to steer humanity on the right path. I created a whole universe, full of laws, elements, properties, and so much more. I wanted people to experiment. I wanted people to discover. I wanted people to adapt. *I wanted people to l... | 1 | 0 | 24 | 34,873 |

[WP] Write God's suicide note, and Satan's eulogy. | I'm gonna start this off with a story. I heard someone say once that good eulogies should be mostly stories, because that's what it's really about, right? Someone dies, all his friends and relatives gather, and more than anything, it's nice to be remembered. Well, no worries about that, I guess. Heh.

[WP] Write God's suicide note, and Satan's eulogy. | My beloved servants,
I tried to hold out, waiting for humans to get it right. We all know the truth. No matter how long you have, you cannot reach perfection. Do not worry, it is not your fault. You tried your best and you failed. Don't take it to hard, I knew ahead of time. This is here to let you know that you don't ... | 1 | 0 | 24 | 34,878 |

[WP] Two mortal enemies standing waist-deep in gasoline; one with three matches, one with five. | "You got a match-box?"
The question stunned him. He blinked slowly.
"Uh, no. No, I don't."

[WP] Two mortal enemies standing waist-deep in gasoline; one with three matches, one with five. | "How did we end up here? Not just in this pool of gasoline, but *here*? Is it worth our own lives to ensure the death of the other? It started as just a friendly rivalry, why does it have to end in flames?"

[WP] Two mortal enemies standing waist-deep in gasoline; one with three matches, one with five. | We both held our matches out in front of us. He had five, I had only three. But only one of the precious matches was needed to ignite the pool of gasoline we found ourselves waist deep in.

Write a story that includes domestic violence [WP] | My own version:
He lay baptised in a cocktail of plasma, cells and DNA convincing himself this was the only way. His saviour, a simple kitchen knife gleamed in the setting sun’s cooling rays.

[WP] The Last clown. | The Great Terror began ten years ago. A senator's son - a fat, ugly child with mean, beady eyes - shot up his fancy boarding school.

No one seems to notice me anymore. Truth be told, I've been trying to hide in the shadows and I rather like it this way. I see the looks on their faces; the disinterested, dispassionate vacancy in their eyes is especially telling. People, or at least what I think are people, just don't care.

[CW] Online Etymology Dictionary Poetry Challenge! | My word was flower.
Here is my poem:
The flower blooms under the right conditions
Somehow deep within itself it knows when the time is right

Is it an amaranth flower, a bloom everlasting?

Grinding an ax to a perfect sharpness is
