Pets & Animals > Dogs (Other) Should restaurants allow dogs in with their owners?: 6 of 50

The reason I say no is not because I think it is wrong to have a meal with your best friend beside you, but because some dogs shed more than others, some people don't clean their dogs, and watching a big dog drool while you are trying to enjoy your soup can be a little disgusting for some people. No one in a restaurant is go...
Pets & Animals > Dog Training Are choke and prong collars useful or should they be banned?: 3 of 13

Choke and prong collars are not tools of abuse unless they are being used that way. Although I do prefer a prong collar over a choke collar due to the fact that choke chains tend to cut off a dogs airway if the dog or owner is pulling to hard. Prong collars on the other hand are a genius invention. When used properly they pe...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Shattered: 29 of 116

Here I stand so dark and alone Bleeding from my always broken heart Tortured and torn I am shattered Like fallen pieces of glass Pain pierces me Like so many knives Digging deep to my soul Tears stain my face Turning to ice as they fall to the ground Forsaken to the dark So far that none can touch me No light, no love Barren...
Pets & Animals > Dog Psychology Understanding a dog's protective nature of children: 1 of 4

Dogs, like people, are a pack animal. They work together, rest together, and play together. Just like people they have a driving need to protect their young from any harm that might befall them.

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Travel: 20 of 77

Walking Through Eternity She walks in the valley Between darkness and light A line in the sky of her life Between midnight and morning She comes to see the stars Wandering the brink of destruction Stuck in a half life Watching time go by An eternity of voices Echoing across the desert of time Her life drifts away Like the oc...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Nature's song: 8 of 30

Title: The Animal In the Dog I run The wind blowing through my fur The earth beneath my paws I feel the heart beat of the land As it matches my own I am free Roaming the wilds I call home I breathe The fresh air enters my lungs Bringing the scent of others The animal inside Brings forth a howl of joy I sleep My soul is at pe...
Creative Writing > Short Stories Short stories: Fate: 11 of 41

Kismet ran, her heart drumming out a fearful rhythm, her lungs laboring for air. They had found her again, the beasts in the night, the bloodsuckers with their wolves. Her eyes, the color of blood, glanced into any dark spot she passed as she ran down the icy streets of Ruidoso, New Mexico. The cold, night air stung her fles...
Pets & Animals > Dog Psychology Why dogs are more loyal than cats: 6 of 21

You may have noticed that your dog would rather hang out and have fun with you more than your cat. This is because in the wild dogs are essentially pack animals where cats are mostly solitary. I say mostly because lions travel in groups or prides. Dogs are born with the need to have companions, to travel in groups, and to ha...
Creative Writing > Short Stories Short stories: Guardian angels: 12 of 29

He didn't see or hear her approaching. He didn't even look up in his half drunken state. He sat there on the sidewalk, a weeks worth beard on his chin, black hair hanging to his shoulders. A bottle of whiskey sat next to him, the cap long forgotten. His eyes glittered with unshed tears. Even drunk he didn't like to cry, but ...
Arts & Humanities > Classical Lit & Mythology Portrayal of female power in mythology: 4 of 9

In Greek mythology women are sometimes portrayed as the hero, the villain, or the victim. In one story where woman is almost portrayed as the villain is when Zeus gave them to man as punishment for what Prometheus did. In another story, like the one of Cupid and Psyche, Psyche is portrayed as both hero and victim. She makes ...
