I was floored to find that I won the Writers Offering Our Finest (WOOF) contest in 1st place this week. There were some excellent writing and poems by other contributors, and I didn’t even think that my dark and grim poem about Burning Alive would make the top 5.  Congrats to the other winners who all had excellent literary pieces this week.
Poetry
Dragon Blogger – “Burning Alive†– A dark poem about burning alive.
Roy – “I cried again…†– Crying for no reason at all… but later, I found out why.
Zorlone – “Unafraid to Love†– A dialogue between extraordinary characters about love, sacrifice, and loyalty.
Creative Non-Fiction / About Writing
Holly Jahangiri – “Interview: Thoughts on Blogging†– I decided to throw a relaxed little virtual get-together with some of my “Jedi Blogger†friends, just to have a chat about blogging… So although we live oceans apart, imagine us gabbing at a little table in an open-air café, enjoying a beer, a cup of tea, or maybe sharing a great big bowl of Bulalo.
Fiction
H. Benjamin Petrie – “The New House†– A boy meets a girl he knows in town and shows her his new house.

Burning Alive
Survival crumbles in disillusion
submerged in fire and black smoke
blasphemous flames beckon
burned, charred analogue
smelling of rotten compost
malfunctioning lungs cease
drawing breath any longer
life summarized in a final
smoldering frontispiece-Poem by Dragon Blogger
