and I will tell no lies.
What am I?
A sphinx, a phoenix, a centaur
or one of a million myths,
and all of them,
but newer,
and none.

Abit of this, some of that...
- Typewriter
- Once upon a time there was a girl who liked writing poetry. One day, she wanted to share a short poem with a friend and did so in the quickest way she knew how; via a text message. Immediately this created a tangible form that had to be followed by function. Character limit and the universal language of SMS with the line breaks and lack of font-freedom threatened to quash originality. However, she persevered, and here today you can see some of those results. Her name is Rosie, and she would be glad to hear of your opinions and thoughts on her short poems. Maybe, if you send her an email with a phone number, you might get your very own one day.
Abit of something else:
Literary-slanted others!

• I’m Chato Mamet Treviño. I’m a Boston Terrier. I was born like 6 or 7 years ago. In October I think. I remember seeing a bunch of kids in costumes. Woof!...
Abit of inspiration...
- Large expanses of glittering, frosty ground.
- A sunrise walk not taken, every day until the right one.
- People I've met, and people I haven't. 'A world in a grain of sand'.
- Any large body of water.
- Taylor Mali on 'What do Teachers really make?' - "Definitely beautiful".
- Cold wind slithering between my hood and my head while walking.
- Blue Car - 'rust and gravity', Meg's first version of Blue Car.
- 'She tore through her sentences, as though speed alone would generate sense...' - Ian McEwan from On Chisel Beach.

You're so cryptic, Rosie! ;-) I've had to tell you about this before...
Cryptic and terrible at proofreading, apparently, judging by the previously missing 'k' of 'ask'! Oops. Let me know if you think you have solved it!
Far be it from me to solve the mystery of Rosie! Like a philologer picking through the Codex Exoniensis or the Poetic Edda, I must be content to wonder at the half-glimpsed fragments of a great and wonderful mythology... (he said flamboyantly).
