Writing 101, Day Five: Hook ’em with a quote

A blank page can be intimidating. Sometimes it’s helpful to use someone else’s words to give you a boost. Today, use a quote or passage from something you’ve read to introduce your post.
The type of quote you choose is up to you. Maybe the passage is something you’d like to comment on, or is one of your favorite quotes. Or maybe you read a great essay the other day, and one of its lines made you think.

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken” Oscar Wilde

I am who I am

I am
What I am
Simply
Just
Because
I want to be

I am a closet writer
I am also intensely hyper
I am some kind of photographer
I am also a videographer
I am fifty year old lady with an attitude
But not without much gratitude

So what if I wear my hair short
So what if I sometimes snort
So what if I wear pink at my age
So what if I feel comfortable on a stage
So what if I wear a shorter than short skirt
So what if I’m a bit of a flirt

“It’s worked so far but we’re not off yet!” Leonard McCoy

La Gun

Just call the Gun
When you need things done
She’ll run
Be there, faster than
The speed of light travel can
Put out, all the fire
Get you out, from the dire

After all
She is doll
La Gun, with the fastest bullets

And the pun was intended!

Throwback Thursday: Gun Roswell

“Childhood means simplicity. Look at the world with the child’s eye – it is very beautiful” Kailash Satyarthi

Throwback Thursday: Gun Roswell

The year was nineteen sixty eight
Life still at stage wait
I must have been no more
Than three years of age

Little Red Riding Hood
Yes, I knew I could
In the borrowed red elf’s hat
Cutest thing you ever saw
Prettiest princess of them all
How could I ever top that!

Now, forty seven years later
Oh life, you’re such a traitor!
I still love red of course
Now I wear it with horns
In the mighty stiletto heels
Life is as good as it feels

In memory of my dear departed brother Jan-Erik

Shadow play

“A man is whole only when he takes into account his shadow” Djuna Barnes

Shadow play

Playing hide and seek
With the part of me
That is truly unique
If you want to complete
The whole picture
Then look closely
In the image of ghostly
There might be a fracture
Which reveals all

SL-WEEK 1: Selfie

Posted on July 8, 2015 by Gun Roswell

Challenge by SYLVAIN LANDRY

“But first, lemme take a selfie!”

Selfie

Strike a pose
Make sure it shows
Put on your face
Oddest of expressions
Trying doing it with grace
And leaving an impression
Click, click and click
Don’t forget the selfie stick
Camera at arm’s length
Can be a feat of strength
Save, crop send
To the social media trend
Sitting and waiting
For likes
How long is it taking?
I wasn’t faking
But yikes
And holy sh-t!
They really liked it!
