I read an interesting article in the newspaper yesterday about movie fans being able to change the endings of their favorite films using special software.
I would definitely have Leonardo Di Caprio toss Kate Winslet overboard right after saying “Do you trust me?” in Titanic. Yip that could definitely work. I’m seeing her washing up somewhere in Poland. Or being rescued by a fur seal. Or Vikings. Or having her toes nibbled off by surface feeders. The possibilities are endless.
And that’s what I like – the ability to exercise freedom of expression and get the creative juices flowing. So, in the true spirit of giving I thought Id hand over the reins to my devoted readers (I know you’re out there) to finish the ending of the story.
Post your one stanza comment, and let the story unfold.

There is a place, down on the coast
Where the sea and river meet
The days are hot, the winds blow cool
And the fragrant blossoms sweet.
One fine day, a traveler came
With the northern breeze
A long grey beard and walking cane
(To help his failing knees)
He wandered into the nearest inn
And leaned against the bar
His eyes glowed like winter storms
And his voice as thick as tar
“A pint good man” he paused a while
His voice now strangely soft
“20 years in shackles I bin
And missed the liquid oft”
He told his story of long ago
Of when he was a lad
How he became a prisoner
The adventures he had had…
