      @jess Whoa! That’s amazing. Yeah, it does it for me when I post poems too. Can you tell me how to do one? What are the steps? What makes you choose what to put next?

        @bluejay, from the wonderful google: A diamante poem is a poem that makes the shape of a diamond. The poem can be used in two ways, either comparing and contrasting two different subjects, or naming synonyms at the beginning of the poem and then antonyms for the second half for a subject. In the poems, the subject is named in one word in the first line.
        Line 1: Beginning subject

        Line 2: Two describing words about line 1

        Line 3: four doing words about line 1

        Line 4: two nouns for each subject line separated with asterisk

        Line 5: four doing words about line 7

        Line 6: Two describing words about line 7

        Line 7: End subject

                  @daeus I won’t be able to write tonight either. I’ve got stuff I need to do. Sorry. 🙁

                  You’re Deaus’s only hope.

                    *hangs head in shame* it seems I have failed you, Lord Daeus, please forgive me. (I have had a bad case of eyestrain and needed to give myself a break; sorry)

                      @jess No doubt the format will muck this up, but here is my poem for the dare that you gave me. 🙂 Enjoy.

                        @kate-flournoy Somehow I’ve managed to evade seeing if you’re writing today, but if so I really need to join you. I’m having commitment block and need accountability. I’ll probably take a break here, but I can write pretty much any time of the day.

                          Ha, I’m having a bit of the same problem @Daeus. Yes, I’m writing. I will be writing until 10:55, and then probably from 12:30 to 2:00 after that, then from 2:30 to 4:00, assuming nothing unexpected comes up. Tag me whenever you need to.

                                I’ll join you two! I didn’t feel like waiting five minutes to write, so I’m getting a head start. Warming up, you could call it.
