Welcome to Finley Experience

This website is dedicated to LGBT folks who are surviving in this crazy world.

New Helium Article

Alright folks, you've waited for it, and here it is, a non-poetry, non-fictional piece about the pros and cons of homesteading. Technically this title is a contest entry, however, I only entered one title, thus, I wont be able to recieve enough points for a contest win. Needless to say, I felt I should put my two cents into the topic.

The Promised Sequel: Helium.com Poetry Contest

Alright, I wrote as many of the Helium.com contest titles as I possibly could before the time limit passed. Unfortunately, my promise of nonpoetry entries in this particular contest has failed to come to fruition. Of the 20 "Opposites" creative writing titles, I submitted 14 (all poems). Fortunately, Helium is daily running contests and I shall have my name and musings smeared across their contest categories! It'll be fun! You should join me.

Links to the long awaited last seven titles I entered:

Poetry: Happy and Sad

Poetry: Hot and Cold

Poetry: Loud and Quiet

Poetry: On and Off

Poetry: Shout and Whisper

Poetry: Up and Down

Poetry: Wall and Run

(*Please Note: We the People of the United States of America are citizens of a Constitutional Republic, a.k.a. The Republic. We are not a direct democracy like some believe. By the Constitution, we are a Representative Democracy. We elect representation to defend the Constitution and the People. We placed our faith with government in the people, not in monarchs, not in career politicians, but in the People.

You want changes? Then, it is time for you to take an active interest in the good of the Republic. Do not leave governance to career politicians. Run for office. Vote for third, fourth, and fifth parties.)

This November vote them all out!
