I kept thinking in terms of 'lying' about something, saying untrue things, but now I see I should have been trying to look at something and appreciating another aspect of it. Nicely composed here, Gunnar. Can't wait for Tuesday now! I am chagrined that everyone did such fantastic things with this exercise, but I just couldn’t get inspired and wrote nothing.

Really nicely done, though. Today I discovered that: a) poo ain’t so bad; and, b) The word ‘bowel’ makes me uncomfortable’. Really nicely done, though.

It's worryingly purple. LOL Great piece! I think you would have sold me on the appeal of poo… except for the picture! It’s worryingly purple. LOL

As a gardener I appreciate how everything deposited on the soil impacts the ecosystem surrounding it and you gave a great example that explained the process clearly. I think it is interesting that the deposits that repel us the most are often the most valuable to the soil or surrounding plants and I applaud your willingness to politely point that out. But I really related to your description of the dog's personality. I had that dog. With that exact personality and I don't think I've ever met a happier or more generous soul in my life. You did a great job of 'thinking' like the dog. Very believable. Perhaps not a beautiful post but a very well written, very interesting one. Thanks!

But...still...a creative rendering of the assignment.

The ending was satisfying, it felt complete, nicely done. It was gross, the beginning anyway, kind of made me cringe but very well written. The ending was satisfying, it felt complete, nicely done.
