Something Smells Delicious!

The next contest has me giddy with excitement! As many of you know from how I go on about it in the chat rooms I am an avid cook and love trying new recipes.

That brings us to our next contest. I will be asking you to send a recipe including photos during the process, as well as the masterpiece itself.

I am not sure the prize, or how many will be awarded, or any of the other rules yet, but as always keep an eye on the blog for updates.

I will try to recreate as many of the recipes as I can, so feel it's only fair to warn you that if you use some nuts (walnuts and hazelnuts (also knowns as filberts)) or kiwi fruit in your recipes I will have to sub them out, as I am allergic.

Ok dicers
Let's get cooking! 
One, two, three....  GO!

Second, Third, and Honorable Mention

A close second


The Painter 

"What is done in love is done well." - Vincent Van Gogh

The sink stains blue as murky water drains

through five faux-horsehair brushes.
They fall on fading terrycloth,
thickest to finest, soldiers lying prone.



As water spills from tap to plastic cup
I glance back on the portrait still undone.
A seam of swelling sweat breaks my skin
from seizing seas within my chest.
The cup, empty, quells no storm.



I add passion and a hint of yellow
to my palette, adopted other hand.
The bare wood floor holds folds of red,
the heaps of cloth I've traced to last.



A crimson slash born of my trembling hand
becomes a curl of silk dress-ribbon.
A figure emerges. The brushes bloom.
I look up from my growing canvas world:



You wait in the shadows, poised as clay,
your red gown burning in your blush.
I carry your image into a canvassed heart
with the secret softness of every stroke.


The previous author prefers to remain anonymous, so name will not be published and prize will be awarded privately. I promise you though that this was written by a well known and loved dicer!


A very respectable third:

*Dear Traveller*

When will I find the one that knows me?
Are they in Nepal, on the mount?
Guide me to you.

Do they watch the water spin down the chasm of Lake Victoria?
Among the reptiles, maws open,
In muddy waters I would crawl to you.
Darest any dragon defy me?

Tell me of the Tundra
There is no cold I have not known.
Without you, lover, I cannot grow.
Every ray of sunlight is a betrayal.

Dear traveler, will I ever find you?
Would I know if I saw you?
Would you know me?
Do you know me?

I am here, awaiting the skip of a heart.
The light of the eye.

I want to thank our esteemed judge, who shall remain nameless, for taking time to review all of these poems for us! :)

Winner Winner!!

And the winner is...


Last Bus Out

It’s cold around our feet.
Florescent, irascible light
On my irritated eyes
Angry and uncomfortable
And hungry
With a burning something
that empties the stomach
and hollows out the soul.
Bus jolts and we wiggle
Jostled like almonds in a tin box

The ennui
Of going round and round the faces of a clock
A bell at every stop
With only the shadows moving
Across the floor of the bus
Like repetitious laughter.

They’re oblivious
Because they’re in love
Squeezed together
With only a tenuous hold on slender.
Metal bars, endangering the rest of us
When the driver throws on the breaks
And their reality is shaken apart for a second,
Pushing them against gravity
Before they can refocus on each other’s eyes.

They’ll come down later.



This poem was written by JessicaDoge, and I owe Jessica my apologies as only part of her poem got published the first time around. I am very pleased that her poem won, so that we can enjoy the rest of it! Congratulations Jessica! :)

Who's it Going to Be?

Ok, I think I have them all. If I have missed your poem my most sincere apologies, and please email me with details, and I'll be sure to get it up.

Our esteemed judge will be working hard to come up with winners over the next few days, and we should be ready to announce early next week.

Good luck, and may I just say "WOW"! Some of you are so incredibly talented. Who'd have thunk it?





Wow!

roll hi! roll hi! roll hi!
digits, variance - just nice 

roll lo! roll lo! roll lo!
no more reds, god damn, nо more!

climbing, falling, H! L! H!
f#cking close to zero stage

crossing fingers, stop the breath
rolling numbers lucky green!!

that nice, my dice, just nice!
honey, shure - it's last dice!

roll hi! roll lo! roll hi! roll lo! roll lo!
no more.. no more.. no more!! 

ouch! unbelieveble! boom-crunch!
honey, on our valentine we've got no lunch... (





Kiss me, dear, here and near,
throw away your silent fear.
listen to this shaped sound -
it’s a song of sleeping town - 
it’s a music of the wind 
in the everlasting spring.

Do not mind of the thunder hummer -
it’s a sign of coming summer,
let the lightening shine your eyes
for my feelings to arise,
Let the wind blow up your hair
for the mighty smells of air.

Do not leave me - I’m alone,
it’s so easy - turn me on,
do not let me fall in dreams - 
we should cross their angry streams.
Then we’ll fly through dark and light
to control the dawn and night...




 Time's away, again today.
 Back tomorrow, will it stay?
 Sullin sorrow, to pull astray?
 Lonely 'morrow, fades to grey.
 
 A flash of light, it dies by night.
 Pales thy face, to leave it white.
 Takes thy place, and thought it might.
 But leaves no trace, of thee in sight.
 
 The end is drawn, so carry on.
 And leave no mark of "we" apon.
 'cuz now the loth'd "he" is gone.
 Time can be with "she" till dawn.
 
 Time's a fray, in many way
 Back tomorrow? who's to say?
 Abandoned sorrow, lead astray
 Leaving 'morrow, another day

Poems are Fun!

The wordthief

As the crow's caw, the pine's rough-scraping bark,
These unsure hands, this stumbling tongue of mine;
So I must steal another's lamp to shine
Light on the faithful contours of this heart.

Soft word, glad glance, bright storm of angered grace;
Each turning image, turning each day anew,
Till I am laid beneath the reaching yew,
Keeps in a plain man's heart its cherished place.

Take down this book, and in the flames' last glow,
Smile at these hobbling lines and understand
You held as true a heart within your hand
As Maud, or Ronsard's Helen, long ago.

- Written on the flyleaf of an old Yeats anthology.



This is corny but honest. I'm a very lucky person, at least in love. Anyway here's my entry, I hope you enjoy it if nothing else. I would rather remain anonymous. Thanks for reading it. :)

Not much is known about the martyr St Valentine
Sacrifice doesn't feel all that romantic
Yet I know for you I'd put it all on the line
Playful arguments reveal I'm pedantic
Silly soliloquies shared with you and cheap wine

I wonder if the Saint would approve of our tryst
Reading Chaucer under a waxing moon
Cuddle for warmth and so waxes our lust
I wonder what made such a goddess fall for a loon
Holding nothing back I embrace you in complete trust
Strange emotions overwhelm and I fall to swoon

You reduce a man to a boy
I am your listless toy
For you I'd give all
And welcome the fall
The overture
Was Rapture

Saint Valentine may have been a fool
Yet I admire the spirit of this martyr
Love-addled I lose lucidity 
I've taken on St Valentine's charter
I am in your hands, I shall be your tool
Let us shape something beautiful in all this

The bliss of your kiss
Is too much to bear
What a king amongst men must I be
To share the riches of your love
I did not believe in a Heaven
Yet you must be from above

In you I've found purpose
In you I find meaning
The mysteries seem trite
When under your light

Strewn blankets and disheveled hair
Within our secret love lair
Ours has been the sweetest affair

My Hesperus, Venus
I adore you so
In your faults I find perfection
How blessed am I to be your selection
I forget my woe
Because you are mine, my sublime Valentine


*Dear Traveller*

When will I find the one that knows me?
Are they in Nepal, on the mount?
Guide me to you.

Do they watch the water spin down the chasm of Lake Victoria?
Among the reptiles, maws open,
In muddy waters I would crawl to you.
Darest any dragon defy me?

Tell me of the Tundra
There is no cold I have not known.
Without you, lover, I cannot grow.
Every ray of sunlight is a betrayal.

Dear traveler, will I ever find you?
Would I know if I saw you?
Would you know me?
Do you know me?

I am here, awaiting the skip of a heart.
The light of the eye.

How much is that DOGE at the Exchanger?




How much is that DOGE at the Exchanger?
(in the tune of "How much is that doggie in the window")

How much is that DOGE at the Exchanger?
The one with much wow for a tail!

How much is that DOGE at the Exchanger?
I do hope that DOGE is for sale!

My BAC must take a trip to California!

And leave his poor Bitcoin alone!

If he had some Doge he won't be lonesome!

And the Doge will have a good home!

I read in the forums there are scammers!
With sob stories that crack up the chat!
A Dicer needs more DOGE to protect him!
And scare trolls away with one /mute!

I don't want a CATcoin or a KITTEH!
I don't want a crypto that sucks!
I don't want a bowl of gay fisticks!
‘cause I can't take a COINYE for a walk!

How much is that DOGE in the Exchanger?
The one with amaze such profit!
How much is that DOGE in the Exchanger?
I do hope that DOGE is for sale!

Finally Some Romance!


First, some notes about the poem and its structure: seven stanzas representing the lucky number 7; each stanza is made of two lines representing a monogamous couple; there are fourteen lines total, one for each day through Feb. 14.  Also, this poem is dedicated to both the JD team and to the JD user <Veronica>.


"Martingale My Heart"
by (176670) <penny>



Our love is like a martingale,
this tiny flame brightly burning, licks at our heels only to consumes us.



It starts as a seedling, filled with our hopes and dreams,
And grows into a massive oak that withstands the kisses of the lumberjack's axe.



What begins as a sweet and gentle rain, mana from heaven,
becomes a mighty stormcloud, booming loudly as it marches across the sky, raging with thunderous fury.



Our passions run wild, out of control and upredictable,
taking us to the apogee of our excesses, our desires fulfilled.



The mathematicians seek to circumscribe us,
with equations replete with the ruins of ancient dead civilizations. But what is this language we speak?



Our love is infinite, boundless, timeless and uncountable,
It weathers the wins and the losses, the ups and the downs.



Our love is like a martingale,
So come take my hand and roll the dice with me.







" I may not have perfume
To linger in the air
Instead I am here with you,
To show how much I really care.



I may not have candy hearts
and boxes of delights
But even if you go blind
I`ll always be your sight.



I may not have a pretty card
with Fancy shades of red
Instead I have my love for you
Even surpassed when I am dead.



I mat not have a teddy bear
That whimpers, "please be mine"
Instead I gave my heart to you
You wear it all the time. "


"now lets fuck with our sexual parts "

Ere the 14th of February, 
All the Dicers, strange and varied:
do rejoice and pray be merry!
For tis sure that Deb be ferried,
by her beau Doog, yet unmarried,
bearing chocolate and strawberry
onto bed of lustful parry.
And so whales may swim unharried,
for no death switch here be buried!

a twist, a turn
a win, a burn
a loss, a gain
alone, afraid

But then a light releases chance
I forget to know, what is this "can't"?
posibility beyond belief, what was trapped is now released 

A new beggining could it be,
with just those words, you set me free,
what are these words?
must you ask
Those simple words firmly grasp,
my heart and soul
and my being 
I can't believe 
what I'm seeing
