I read this earlier. Was affected by it ju B. My initial thought was 'too short', but there is something about it that drew me back. That is always something that should ring the 'quality' alarm bell. 10 words provoking a thought.... Well done.

Ju Be. Sorry if it was lost in the translation, when I said quality alarm bell I meant to say high quality alarm bell. I liked it. :-)

OK scratch- it read right, i took it as a compliment, thank you. but I'M disappointed with it. someone once described me as a "punch-in-the-stomach" writer. & that's what i want to do with the America thing, but it won't go right. i just got to find me an angle, i know. it's just so frustrating.

It's not my thing but have a look at delapruch's stuff you might find a kindred spirit?
