Feature Love

Perhaps you all have seen ^garrit's Be a Gallery Director for one day ... journal; then you will know that we are going to be doing the same thing, for writing! Here's what we want:

            Pick the BEST writing piece (Prose, Poetry or Visual Poetry) that you have found on dA and note us with deviation link. Also, the piece does NOT have to be from a member of writersdA!
            The number of favourite's or views on the piece does not matter.
            This will be running for two weeks! Make sure you get it in by then.
            It can't be your own piece. Suggest anyone, and any piece you would like. There is no limits except by these rules.

One of the most striking things about her poetry is how varied it is - with haikus, stream of consciousness, poems that experiment with form, fixed poetry and poetry that verges on prose. She is the kind of writer who has the ability to bring something fresh to well-worn ideas and images. Her prose has a conversational tone that draws you in, making it easy to read (even off a computer screen) and she is a master at dialogue.
