The Lonely Recluse

We have a Christmas cactus at home, I'm wondering if it's edible (well brewable actually), if any part is edible or has to be avoided for that matter.

My Dad's asked me to find a chemical reaction that can be done with easily available (i.e. buy off ebay at worst). The chemical reaction has to have a red (or reddish) solution added to a murky coloured solution and ending with a colourless solution. does anyone have any ideas, thanks.

For the past couple of days when I've tried to get onto deviantArt, either on my pc (on IE) or on my phone (Wifi) I haven't been able to get onto deviantArt. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions why I may be having this problem? Thank you.

I need to know what protective sports gum shields are made from for an assignment, any help would be great, also it would be helpful if you left a source as I am meant to quote my sources, thanks =D.

I once heard a poem that read both down and up (i.e. if you read it top to bottom there was one poem, if you read it from bottom to top there was another), does anyone know what this type of poetry is called? Also does anyone know the name of the poem I mean, it reads down as an atheist and then when you read it from the bottom up it becomes a christian poem, the whole poem is to illustrate repenting. Thanks in advance for the help =D

I have heard that a metronome is helpful for insomnia is this true?

I've modified a poem that people said was too short, please comment and critique (constructive criticism please no destructive criticism) (Its not as long as it looks)

Insomnia

Tick

Sleepless once again

Tock

Every night the same

Tick

Sitting awake for hours

Tock

My life it devours

Tick

Why can I not sleep

Tock

It near makes me weep

Tick

Tock

Goes the clock

Tick

The hours go past

Tock

The calm never to last

Tick

My mind it does race

Tock

Daft thoughts it does chase

Tick

I wish it would stop

Tock

To sleep I could drop

Tick

Tock

Goes the clock

Tick

My life it does drain

Tock

My mind it does pain

Tick

Rest is what I need

Tock

My soul it would feed

Tick

My body does waste

Tock

Sleep I need with haste

Tick

Tock

Goes the clock

Tick

Can it not give up

Tock

Let sleep fill my cup

Tick

Please let me survive

Tock

On sleep let me thrive

Tick

Let go of my life

Tock

Stop giving me strife

Tick

Tock

Goes the clock

Tick

Help the doctor can’t

Tock

Or could it be shan’t

Tick

Says there is no cure

Tock

Of that he is sure

Tick

Tablets he won’t give

Tock

To help let me live

Tick

Tock

Goes the clock

Tick

How did it begin

Tock

Can I ever win

Tick

Could it be a curse

Tock

To make me feel worse

Tick

Shall I just pretend

Tock

Can it ever end

Tick

Tock

Goes the clock

Please comment on this poem (constructively please =D), especially on how I could improve it.

The lonely recluse,

Where is his excuse?

How can it be such,

His load is too much?

If this is a noose,

Will he it deduce?

Why does he try clutch,

Something he can’t touch?

The lonely recluse,

He has no excuse.

Please comment on this poem, thanks CBoyy =D

A mask I do always wear

To hide my great despair

Long have I worn it thin and thick

Till on my face it did stick

Now remove it I cannot

I wish wear it I had not

Will I ever know or be

The truly maskless me?

Please comment on this poem, thanks CBoyy =D
