Going Nowhere

Going Nowhere Faster than Ever Before   
Technological and Social Stagnation in 21st-century America   
Imagine the pride 300 million people feel from living in one of the most technologically advanced nations in the world. Among those people and their ancestors are the great thinkers who blessed the world with the electric lamp, alternating current electricity, and many, many other devices. In fact, in this great nation, as well as several others, so many devices have been invented or improved in the past 50 years that it is easy for one to find themselves feeling as if the world has moved further in 50 years than it has

Revenge - Chapter 1Chapter 1:  Niam Tsinogatna paced back and forth. The news that his friend, Deyney, had almost killed another friend while out hunting, continued to bother him. What would the people think? He decided to ask his butler.   
“John,” he addressed his butler of twelve years.   
“That’s ‘Bon,’ sir,” Bon replied obsequiously.   
“Whatever, y’all got three letters in common anyway,” Niam retorted.   
“Actually, sir,” Bon started.   
“See, that’s the problem with you, lad. There’s three kinds ‘a peoples in this world. Those who can count, and those who can’t. Y’all got three letters in common.” & Revenge - Chapter 1

The StraightjacketThe red phone next to the glass rang only once before being picked up. On one end was a quirky-looking girl of a little less than average height, on the other end was a frazzled, exhausted, and unpredictable-looking woman of precisely five feet and six inches.  
 
“Hello, mother dear,” the young woman inside the cell said in a sincerely glad-to-see-you voice.

Perfection's FollyA lone archer stands on a hill top. Tall and slender, his every aspect complement the trade that he has so religiously perfected. Accompanied only by a great willow, this instrument of annihilation, an emissary created in the image of a reflection in the river styx, stands poised in a position all to familiar to him. A vantage more natural than sleeping.  
         To him breathing, and eating were efforts. But this, was perfection. He was at rest in his undertakings. Around him the heavens blaze, spiraling up and in as if the storm itself wished to experience the world from his eyes.

Excellent writing talent, as usual, Thomas.
I especially like your Satire deviation about Priscilla.
Keep up the creativity!

I really like that poem, for some reason. But you're welcome.

Just a correction...I think I'm not supposed to upload assignments, so they've been removed.

Thank you. I'll try to upload my finished assignments as deviations, with the bits and pieces in scraps. I'll also probably start working on a real novel, too, not one of those kid deals I just did for practice. I'll put up all the chapters for that as they're made.
