An adaption of Kenneth Grahame’s characters and continuation of their stories from “Wind in the Willows” Babbling sounds rise and echo around the small hollow. Rising from slumber, stretching outward, brushing the mud caked ceiling which had dried out ages ago, some of it came crumbling down on poor Rat’s head. Rolling out of bed…

FREESTYLE CREATIVE WRITTING (a beginning)
Stooping down by rolling river, rapid water splish splashing, reverbing off rock and ebbed soil. Little paw reaching in, fishing about for its afternoon tea.

BOXING WITH DEPRESSION
Melancholy hits harder than Mike Tyson on steroids taking pills disipates the useless musings that pit me against the world

“Death and life are forces of our world. They rise and ebb like the tide. Think on this, and you will no longer desire revenge, only peace.” Necromancer, Diablo III, Blizzard, Bastion’s Keep Stronghold, (Small Boy) What a powerful quote from a video game. Many believe video games are a waste of time and resources….
