Writing Submission:

Morning to night. Night to day. Day into evening and back again. I'm told my life is short not long. Within the walls that make up this shell, some thing is going to come out.
She says it's a good thing.
A thing to look forward to.
But all I see is the darkness beyond. Beyond the light at the end of the tunnel--which is all they see.
"Who did you give birth to?" I want to scream.
But I have no mouth. No beak. No mouth to scream with. No beak to chirp with. And that thing does.
One more month they say. That's all I have.
One more month before this shell of an existence fades away--cracks, they say.
Caring so warmly. But not for the egg. But the living being inside. The "living" being inside.
Who ever said eggs weren't live?
I peer over the edge of the nest. A snake beckons me with its widening jaws.
So easy, to just fall...fall...fall...
But I stop because. This life is not my own.
A month they say.
Just a month. A month.

Feathers flock, a cackling croak,
slimy it slipped down the rack.
Alas, the chickens efforts were for lack,
this egg was born to be broke,
and cooked for my morning snack!

Hello Law stopping by to say hey.

[Chloe]

The life of an egg.. haha.. well, if I wanted to be a jackass, I think most eggs probably spend that time being sat on by Mama's big butt but I guess I could see one getting into adventures.

Can't see myself writing anything through, I have to work on writing a game development thing up and I'm already drawing blanks. haha.

Anyway, good to see you still around, Law.

[Cazzidy]

I'm not really a writer, I suck at these type of things... but just dropped by to say hi to you Law and goodluck with your thread! :)

[Lawtan]

:) Thanks all.
(Sorry for the late reply - Law got sick.)

[Cazzidy]

Sick? what happened to you? are you feeling better now?

[Lawtan]

Started breaking out/swelling a few days ago. Been on heavy Benadryl and trying not to scratch my skin off xD

[Cazzidy]

Woah! Have you checked with the doctor already? Is it something serious?

[SparX]

That sounds terrible law!
Also I plan on participating but I'm having trouble coming up with things XD

May help...IDK xD

And it is finally going down, I just have to stay out of the heat. :)

[Cazzidy]

Ah true! The heat these days is quite a torture... XD

[NikkoGallarado]
