Never leave start but still win a race.
Travel to Mars without entering space.
Spell lemonade but don't use an L.
Reveal a secret but also don't tell.
Eat chocolate cake but don't use your mouth.
Try to head north by just running south.
Win a chess match by losing your king. *ChessKingB*
You're gambling with preposterous things!

As Jenna watched her boyfriend's car burn in front of her, you would think that it was enough to even the tables in her mind. However her dark expression revealed this was far from over. Her revenge was just getting started.

You may think that I'm small
That I'd avoid a fight,
But do not be fooled
Cause I've got a sharp bite!

I'd avoid throwing hands
But don't say that I can't.
You'll find my spirit animal
Is the Great Fire Ant!

When I look in the mirror Tomorrow looks back.
I see the outcome of all that has occurred.
The planned and the unexpected, the good and the bad.
The future comes to me like raindrops in a hurricane.
There are moments when I wish I could use my knowledge to change what is for me but what could be for you.
Alas a message from me is like a postcard without a stamp left to be lost in the mail of time.
I often feel like I am staring at a photograph of the past haunted be what I cannot change.
But some outcomes shine above the rest as I see dream come to life and hopes fulfilled more beautifully than ever imagined.

Cows of Which I never saw.
Mountain Majesties galore.
Twilight's called the violet hour;
shares its name with certain flowers.
Harold's crayon make the list.
Prince's rain and amethyst.
Royals share this color craze.
It's all just a Purple Haze!

A discarded crumpled up piece of paper
colorful and coated with wax.
It flies in the breeze with no set destination...
Content to go wherever the wind carries it.

It's worthless now but once it was a guardian
protecting a sweet prize within.
Ensuring a moment of joy to the one who unwrapped it,
its purpose is now fulfilled.

Authors Note: I was picturing a Starburst wrapper when writing this. It is one of my favorite types of candies.

You'd have thought that the days of sailing were over when the last drop of water evaporated on Earth. Instead, the invention of the Sand Thruster gave rise to Desert Sailing where ships could race across the remnants of the dead planet at thousands of miles per hour. From that came the Pacific Regatta, an endurance boat race that proved to be one of the most deadly and cutthroat survivor sports of all time.

Look in my hands what could it be?
A simple hat for all to see.
The top extends and seems quite snazzy.
A classic look from eras jazzy.

But wait there's more if you watch quick,
You'll see the perfect magic trick
An ancient move yet done by habit.
I'll reach inside pull out a rabbit! *Rabbit*

Much lighter fare than Game of Thrones...
My show of choice Shadow and Bone.
The show closed out with quite a shock.
The team split up and 4 left dock.
A bloody coup left us distressed.
A friend in jail, one possessed.
But follow ups were not to be...
We failed to get season three.

A classic film of sci fi lore.
A space crew visits Altair Four.
A mystery is in that place...
The ruins of a high tech race.

A robot servant there they find
and doctor with a genius mind.
Alas their journey gets upset...
The planet holds a deadly threat!
