A second attempt at "Give It 100!" , since the first one ("100" ) turned out pretty well even though I didn't complete it within 100 days.
These are just rough sketches and ideas that are barely a little more rounded-out...they're not perfect but they're gonna be good enough to share here at least. Your comments, support, and words of encouragement will be greatly appreciated!
Ooh, I feel like this is full of potential, but somehow unfinished. I really like the first half, up to 'with an all-knowing smirk'. After that it loses me a little I think.
God's America...
I was sitting by the fountain
in the park, reading on a typically
glorious summer afternoon when I
became startled by the ringing
of church bells from the neighboring
property. They sang annoyance to
the tune of "Yankee Doodle Dandy",
as if my day- no, my life- would
be incomplete without it. I offer
no allegiance to either, and
only to the moment, barely, but
mostly to myself and the time I
was losing in the interruption.
If I'm not fit for independence, then
who am I?
