I was your pidgeon
A new discovery
A handy one
Usefull even
You discoverd that
I could help you
Make life easier
Prettier
Until there came a new discovery
A handy one
Usefull even but better
Prettier
Now i am a pidgeon
They used to think i was their most precious discovery
Now i get treated like dirt
A flying rat is my nickname
I am no longer your favourite belonging
But i still am out here on the streets
I am still me
I still fly
I am still beautiful
Just not to you

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

Instructions Included Challenge Winners
For the Instructions Included challenge, we asked writers to tell a story through instructions and to trust the form to carry what could not be said outright. Across the top entries, that trust paid off in many different ways.
