eek! a challenge!

[phineasjones]

ok, here's the deal. i've never done this but i'm going to do it now. i am currently completely obsessed with the poem i like my body when it is with your body by e.e. cummings. if you will write a fic based on that poem in some way - whatever way, whatever pairing- i will give you something. that something being, specifically, a book. made by me. blank or text - up to you. if you want one, that is. you don't have to have one, of course. but this is my offer.


i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite a new thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body. i like what it does,
i like its hows. i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones,and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like,slowly stroking the,shocking fuzz
of your electric fur,and what-is-it comes
over parting flesh....And eyes big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill

of under me you so quite new



::wonders if anyone will bite::

eta: do you need incentive? anney says: and phinny makes beautiful books, folks. works of art. if i were ever going to be brave enough to write anything, surely this would be the offer that would draw me in.

no one's looked at yet

if you would like me to beta for you, i'd be happy to.

i read it through and i think it's perfect for this challenge and generally fabulous. i tend not to care for ginny too much (well, more now after ootp) but ginny who's got it bad for hermione is another story. this is incredibly sweet in the best way. i can' wait to spread the word.

i feel the same way about ginny. i'm not even a huge fan over hermione/ginny. it just seemed, well, good for the poem.

if you would like me to beta for you, i'd be happy to.

oh, please do. it was written so quickly (within an hour) i cringe to think of what could be wrong with it because i just wrote, so yesyesyes. anything you'd have to say would be so appreciated. retired_Ego@livejournal, if you please.

thank you for the kind words, you make me ears turn pink. :)
