"If there's justice in this world or a god in the next you'll get your eggs before me. I know what's coming. I do. Brave to read the signs. I can survive on kale and goat cheese I've been practicing. Stick with me and I promise that you will be able to live in what's left of New York for next to nothing." | If there's justice in this world or a god in the next one you'll get your eggs before me and sit here in prophecy as the endings change. I'm going back to Halifax to hear my sister shake hearts with a mezzo range. No one will ever believe what a shy child she was once. |

i think this is a good challenge you've set yourself - actually i have a series of year long challenges for myself, too - i was thinking today i needed a calendar on which to mark successful days. perhaps i need a blog.
Aw, you put me in a poem! I'm touched.
Ah ha! I fixed the HTML, now it/they can be read both ways.
