Life is full of one-liners but it's the spaces inbetween that matter most


For this contest I'd like ONE LINE. Just one it's very simple don't make it difficult.

Topic Suggestions:
-freedom/peace
-gay rights
-life
-reality
-love
-disasters
-poetry itself

[only suggestions]

*Make it mean something deep but not so deep I have no idea what you are talking about and it MUST be your own. If I have heard it somewhere else you will be instantly DQ'd!
* just DONT make it rhyme within itself, it wont win.
* don't let it be longer than ONE line, duh.
