What is madness to you?
MarkMyWords

Madness is hairy-chested aps with magical comunication devices, able to build empires to last by scribling on papers. It's piss turned to clean drinking water and goddamned metalic beasts with round, rubber thingies that spin and propel them forward, what the hell.

Challenge
Write about dancing and tapping your toes
Poetry or prose, any genre.

Floors don’t dance, people do

I don't dance much — but I knew a girl who did, and she was beautiful. The passion in her eyes and the hunger of her spirit were something unusual to the semi-conscious zombies of society, that mope around with eyes tethered to their electronic captors. It was like she loved something, and I loved that. She wasn't good with words, always stuttered and tumbled over herself while trying to speak, but she could dance, she could silhouette the wall will the excellence and beauty of a princess. So every time she fell over her feet trying to speak, it was a cute and welcomed contrast.

Challenge
Write a short love poem. The catch is that the first sentence must have seven words, and the following sentences should countdown until you have only one word for the last sentence. Basically 7 words, then 6, then 5, etc.
Love comes in numbers.

Fingers and Hearts

Blood robs the mind of true love

Throbbing, pounding and piercing my thoughts

Where exists extasy in life

Life kills freedom rightly

Intertwine and mingle

Fingers and

Hearts

Heaven is place on Earth. Tell me where it's more likely to be located. Leave out the longitude and latitude and tell me why it is where is.

Heaven is a Place in The Stars

Heaven is a place in the stars. I do not look up and see God because I do not believe in Him. I look up and see the priceless luster of the stars and I believe in the universe. The stars explode in a glorious death and spill their guts into the universe to be used to make something new. In the stars lays both the beauty of life and the beauty of dying and making subsequent offspring. I believe the heavens rest in the stars because I know no greater beauty.

False Pillars That Rule Your Play

You wear a mask to hides what's underneath. Lifting this mask would cause shock; would cause the pillars holding up your world to collapse into the abyss of chaos, destruction, darkness, and the unknown. Every pillar you put up now isn't even helping to hold up the world, it's just dying lies that will crumple into the darkness. You know who you are, but you lie to others and to yourself. Because, if they knew it would be unbearable.— It's all for them, every motion and gesture—every act is just for them, your play is written by those around you, and your final act will be of defiance.

Challenge
Anger
Describe vividly how you feel the emotion 'Anger'. Does it spread like wildfire in your body or does it start with the slow increase of your heartbeat. Does it urge you to create chaos or do you push your demon down back into its cage. I'd like to read all responses :)

Another Word

Another word — another word — another meaningless word. Saying and doing are not the same thing; you cannot tell me one thing then do the other. Cutting open fragile boxes that hold the whole of your words, carving into them a shiloutted shadow of what I wish was true.— just stop talking, your words are sharp, sharper than the pain of lossing one I loved — becuase I'm lossing one that I hated—: myself. How can I love you when you create so much chaos;—it's over—and don't call me again.
