• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

By the strict definition of the word, even. I don't know, the first sentence just dropped into my mind and I went from there. And I want to actually show people what I wrote for once, so, here you go.

I painted in the dark.

I painted in the dark, and the dark painted with me. The dark painted with me, and so all I painted was the dark.

I painted the dark.

I painted the dark in the dark, and so I painted nothing unless the lights came on.

The lights did not come on, and so I painted nothing.

I painted nothing in the dark.

But when the lights come on –

When the lights come on –

The painted will be nothing, because I painted in the dark.

The lights do not come on. I paint in the dark.
