Just to make my inaugural go-round as editor as painless as possible fer moi:
No theme. Whatever lines you think will float yer boat, sail yer plane, or power yer Prius.
Ready?
Set?
GO!!!
Remember, PM me your lines with LBL 46 as the email subject.
Unless I get possessed by the Ghost of Teaching Assistants Past [you may make prop bets on the side if you like], I'll assemble the lines as received and in the order received.
I'll also announce a cutoff date fer submissions fer this round sometime in the next month (or when the total lines received begin to resemble a modern adaptation of an ancient verse play in five acts, whichever comes first, of course, of course [grin]...)

Unless I get persuaded otherwise, I'm picking midnight EDT of May 28 for the deadline of this round.
[I'm also willing to entertain anyone's suggestions as to how frequently I should start new rounds -- monthly versus semimonthly versus based on phases of the moon (?)...]
Anyhoo, I've received a couple of lines so far this round from yawl, but it's still not even sonnet-length yet -- so we need more BRAAAAAAIIINNNNSSS!!!...errr, I mean LINES!!! [makes note to cut down on my zombie movie consumption...] -

Yawl now have *one week* left before I lock #46 down.
Remember: get yer lines in to me no later than May 28th midnight EDT (or be faced with the unspeakable horror of being 'rolled' into #47 -- oh, the humanity! [grin]...) -

Re: 46
Thu, May 22, 2008 - 11:40 PMoh. I was hoping you'd decide for me.
Not feeling like my contributions were very creative, so I guess I'll just wait.

Re: 46
Wed, May 28, 2008 - 9:06 PMoh I see, you are closing it off at midnight. Here I was camped out with my popcorn, hoping something would magestically pop up in front of me. Not your fault. I read what I wanted to see I guess. (I'm just chomping at the bit for this poem! chomp! chomp!)
I will go chill now and wind down for the night. Look forward to whenever it may arrive! -

Re: 46
Fri, May 30, 2008 - 12:59 PMPerformance anxiety? Maybe I misunderstood. You are editing? Or are you rewriting? Or are you recording the video of the first public reading at the Kennedy Center. Now *that* would be cool. -

Hey, even *editing* can be an anxiety-attack-producing endeavor when one's creative Type-A personality gets involuntarily reactivated... -
