Checking for line breaks.
edit: hmph. OK, how do you do line breaks? I checked the quick-edit.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Line breaks are made by hitting only one return at the end of a line, and putting < br > (w/o spaces) at the end of the line.
So this (w/o spaces in the brackets):
Here is < br >
how you < br >
do it.
Would look like this:
Here is
how you
do it.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Big news that may go nowhere! Circle of Confusion, the agents that sold "the Matrix", amongst others, havee asked to read my newest screenplay! Odds are nothing of note will happen, but it's still the biggest agent so far to respond to me!
There is much Snoopy dancing abounding.

Thanks sumi and Erikaj. I am very excited. It'll probably come to nothing, but it's a pretty big door to have gotten through. (:

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay, Victor!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Go Team Victor!!!
Sooo totally not writing anything at present. V. sad.
A teeny tiny unpolished poem from some 6 or 7 years ago. I apologise most profusely if it makes anyone bleed from the eyes, but I've never had anyone help me out with the poetry thing. Moderately tactful advice greeted with gratitude. I'm buggered if I know what to do with the punctuation for this. I know how it sounds, but the punctuation is hit and miss. Anyway:
Echoes
Delicate:
the brush of lashes against lips;
my breath upon your skin.
Tender:
the pressure of warm walls of flesh;
passion lying languid in a tangle of limbs.
