"Paperclips" VERSION 1Title: Paperclip Ad/ I really dunno!
Oh, the glory of a paperclip!
They’re full of so much potential and usefulness!
It’s just the right office supply to hold all your things together,
And its simplistic design makes them easy to use!
Just clip to multiple sheets of paper and presto!
They hold all of your loose papers together with ease.
That’s right! -no need to worry about your papers scattering anymore!
Yet their design also makes them easy to detach when necessary
Moreover, they’re extremely durable for you to use again and again!
But wait- you can also bend them, stretch them, mold them…
Why, you can shape them into whatever your liking!
This revolutionary product dates all the way back to the late 1800’s,
Making thousands of office workers happy for over a century!
And their affordability continues to make them a beloved favorite.
Plus they come in a variety of sizes to satisfy all your needs.
Made from steel or plastic, they are extremely sturdy,
And now they come in a pack of assorted colors!
They’re also light and very resilient, oh but don’t worry;
With up to 500 per pack, they are also easily replaceable!
You heard it! So in case something should happen,
Paperclips are exceptionally disposable!
NOTE: I think that helps to kinda gather prospective. I even did a little shout out for you/us- just for old times sake! Anyway! Here's the final (think kinda... umm, oh! Like the opening title sequence in Monty Python almost):

Ok, I think I have it. I may want to tweak it and some Paperclip lines I thought it would have been great to get your input or change, but oh well. I meant to call you this weekend to see about starting up our community. I was trying to think of a cool name for it like.... Poem Productiveness Inc or Project Poems or something nifty and creative but slightly professional even.
But ok! Topic being Paperclips! I don't really have a good title for it so I just slapped down anything. BUT. The reason why this one took SOOOOO long to compile, was because I had to work it in sections. Plus, I even did research. So when I went to type it out, I had to make sure I had one part solid enough before I could make up the rest of the dialogue. I'll show you, this is first part:
(Inserted both versions of the Project Poem topics)
So there you have it!
Your next assignment shall be about or include.....
A fountain! (Poki's previous owner made her a home-made submersed water pump in a huge tuberware of water to help circulate water flow since she's a picky cat and I can hear it tinkle right next to me) I think that has great potential for some thing sweet or poetic or sad or maybe very myyyystical! ;-)
Anyway, if you're busy then maybe I can get online tomorrow and we can discuss what to do about our online poem thing! Yay!
