Weku feels sorry for the #inconvenience

Weku is out of the air at the moment for... well we do not know for how long. This is the message you get if you try: Sorry for the inconvenience, but we are performing maintenance at the moment. Before able to open witness to public, we need to verify some witness features. Especially features related to witness syncing and consistency. We will be back online soon. -- Weku Team At least we know what is going on. Although I do wonder what will happen to my content. The thing is I never found any of what I did post over there back on the world wide web. It made and makes me think (well that first tag already did). It can be annoying for some people they are "out of the air" if you are for example joining writing contests, but I do believe it is a good idea to run tests first without subscribers feeling annoyed about all these options not operating plus the new bugs buzzing around. Many other organisations, including banks and the government, do the same, mainly at ...

#Charlesadventures - part 3 by #enriquedutch

Charles' adventures are originally Dutch and have been translated. The parts are written in turn by EnriqueDutch and wakeupkitty (KittyWU). This part was written by Enrique Dutch. See for part 1  HERE  and part 2  HERE Tuesday morning As Charles woke up on Tuesday morning he thought about the disaster named Easter. He walked through the bathroom door. There it was, his yellow underpants with egg allover in the laundry basket. The overwhelming smell of rotten eggs mixed up with the aroma of his underpants turned his stomach up side down, made him gag and run to the toilet. At the same moment he arrived the gagging stopped. Where is the cat, he asked himself. Usually Magda was always in the hallway. Charles walked to his wardrobe for some clean underpants. His clothes and towels were sorted by colour. To his opinion it was his right to take a bath, after the mandatory Sundays, again. He pulled the closet door open and there she was. Magda tried, in vain, to hid...

Charles' adventures - part 2. Who's that guy?

What can I tell you about Charles? He is created, a daddy exactly with anxiety and more. Might be we all recognize something in him, might be he lives in a #dreamworld (or if it comes to him) scary world. A world he doesn't understand . My writing partner #EnriqueDutch and I decided to write about Charles' life in turn. He started part 1 of Charles' adventures before Easter 2017 , I wrote the next part. Simply started where his story did end. Charles' adventures are originally Dutch and been translated. A part of the stories of this series of 18 were entrees for #writingcontests as well. Each part is a #turbotale. The search for eggs "Great yellow colour", Charles thought. The cat glazed at him. Her eyes were yellow. "You stay" , Charles said, "you fit in to Easter." "You're wearing your underpants insid e out", the cat meowed. She looked at the yellow underpants with disgust. "Time to search for th...

A poem about commitment

Image
I joined a poetry contest at weku. I just found out about it and gave it a chance. The whole idea is to write a poem and keep writing (daily so 365 a year). This time there was a picture showed you had to write a poem about. I choose to write an "eleven" (in Dutch: Elf). This poem only counts 11 words, so you need to pick out the right words with care. 365 days of poetry challenge Commitment. Long road. It will end. No way to turn. Endless.

Buzzing love song

Image
I've never seen a lazy sun, it's always busy, at work. It's the same with all those bugs, dying to give me hugs. How dearly is that mosquito, buzzing love songs in my ear. She makes me hit her... rhytm, she's all that I do hear. Barking dogs. Locust plague and roaking frogs causing stress. I've had it, I'm so mad, sleeping naked is not that bad. The poem above is a madrigal. This one is written in lines of seven syllables and is comprised of three tercets.

A flaw

Crashed? Damned thing! An exploit within? Doing again an other scan, using the next viruskiller then. An exploit takes advantage of me, a big crime and scam it is, really! I do  NOT  pay ransom is that clear! To exploit others makes you feel complete? I dont pay, but... delete! My entree for the #fiftywordsfriday #writingcontest at #weku If you like to join have a look here .

Charles' adventures - part 1 He is a daddy exactly and so much more!

Charles' adventures - part 1: Easter 2018 (De Nederlandse versie van "De avonturen van Kees" kun je hier lezen.) Wednesday evening Charles went into the tub. Ready for Holy Thursday whatever that may be. Since Charles is a daddy exactly he decided to search for holy stuff on Thursday. He dressed up in white. I look spooky, he thought, but the sugar is white. It was the same for the kitchenfloor and the tablecloth. The clouds outside were white, they did not look like sheep, but like little ghosts. They were completely white. Now he knew. Holy Thursday was named after a spirit, a ghost and ghosts are white. Good Friday Charles spent searching for good. The weather was fine, it did not rain and it was not cold outside. So that was good. He checked out his bank ballance which turned out to be good too. Easter everything should be yellow. Charles was not only a daddy exactly but also grubby. The white underpants he wear at Holy Thursday was yellow by now. E...
