In brief:
1) I take the topic as given in last week's final entry, write a Fib and give a new topic.
2) Your reply to the topic is in the form of a Fib in the comment section.
3) You then supply the next topic.
4) The next visitor replies with a Fib on the newly given topic and then provides a new topic and so on...
A Fib is a six line, twenty syllable poem with a syllable count by line of 1/1/2/3/5/8. The only restriction on a Fib is that the syllable count follow the Fibonacci sequence. An example of a classic fib:
One
Small,
Precise,
Poetic,
Spiraling mixture:
Math plus poetry yields the Fib.

In death -
There is life!
Abortions will end
With the gnashing of croc's teeth. Balls!

a sentence that has never been constructed in the history of time
Hi!
I'm
George Bush.
I was wrong.
War is very bad.
And I support gay marriage, too!
(OK, that's technically FIVE sentences, or one salutation followed by five sentences. But I would argue that that speaker has never constructed the final three sentences in the history of time.)
