You give me that look that's like laughing
With liquid in your mouth
Like you're choosing bits of rain, choking
And spitting it all out
Like you're trying to fight gravity on a planet that
insists
That love is like falling, and falling is like this
--"Falling Is Like This" By Ani Difranco

On
Plagarism:
Garnering
inspiration from other works is one thing, but stealing someone else's
thoughts is another. Don't cheapen the writing experience.
Everyone that writes knows how much work is put into a story. Find your
own voice.
About This Fiction:
"Falling Is Like This", is
yet another fiction that began with one page of spouting nonsense.
Like "Situations",
this fiction began with no intention and no direction. And somehow
down the road, it took a life of its own. Garnering inspiration from
our last collaboration, this story was written by three authors with the
same purpose: Writing without a constraining outline...
The Premise of This Series:
An introspective guide of
being in love with your brother's best friend.
You know love wouldn't be
so hard if the object of your affection would just notice you.
