• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Favourite poems, poems of your own?

Twitter goes in for flash poetry using various hashtags. They post prompts and you whip up a poem in less than 140 characters. Just a bit of fun.

A theme this week was the Unbounded Imagination

Memories of stars & stones
Bubbled, not constrained by skies
Seeming rooted, flesh & bone.
Send birds out seeking, freely fly.



Words of a true poet :

Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. ― Leonard Cohen

Knopfler is a poet (I bought the download)

So Far From The Clyde

'Bravely she rises to meet with the land.'

The breakers 'too poor to be wasteful with pity or time.'
