Fall to the floor,
Needed no more,
Bounce away,
Under the table,
Under the bed,
In the closet,
In the hall.
Useless and sore,
It screams and is ignored,
You walk away,
No crime to pay.
Alone forevermore,
Nothing to be done,
No war to be won,
No heroes rise,
There are only cries.
Cries of lost,
Cries of hate,
What a waste.
Nothing lost,
Nothing gained.
You go on with your day,
No dismay,
You don’t even notice,
The missing and forgotten,
Even as they fall to your feet and weep.
For that button that fell to the floor,
Serves its purpose no more,
And you have no care in the world.

Chapter 7 “From Story to Art” – Section 4 “Diversity”
With Links to Supplementary Material
Diversity—it almost seems a trap word meant for snaring unwitting people into a political debate. But why is it important to writing? Many will argue that it is a means of political correctness, popularity, and seeming hip to all your liberal friends at the coffee shop. While coffee shop creds are pretty important, the real reason for creating a diversity of religion, nationality, culture, ethnicity, philosophy, sexual orientation, gender, econom

Things You Need to Know About Introverts
“You’re so quiet and shy.”
I have heard this pass through the lips of many peers in my life, and I am sure others have as well. In this world, there are two kinds of people: introverts and extroverts, the latter being the vast majority of the global population. We introverts exist in an extrovert’s world and are thus expected to live as such; we are a minority.
Extroverts are people who are generally talkative, enthusiastic, and are driven by exterior stimulation. They enjoy the company of many others, whether it is via parties, social events, business or community meetings, and they are often at a loss for what t

Mythological Couples: Hades and Persephone
Were his eyes playing tricks on him? What was Hades doing in his palace?
“Long time no see, dear brother.” Zeus greeted him. “What brings you here?”
“It’s been quite long, yes.” Hades agreed. “Listen, I’ve wanted to talk to you about something.”
“I am all ears then.” Zeus replied, his curiosity peaked. Whatever the matter, it must be quite important, if Hades was willing to leave his palace.
