More on May's Theme
Current mood: energetic

Remember, May's theme is bite!  Here's some more ways to think about bite:

To cut, grip, or tear with or as if with the teeth.
To pierce the skin of with the teeth, fangs, or mouthparts.
To sting with a stinger.
To cut into with or as if with a sharp instrument: The ax bit the log
deeply.
To grip, grab, or seize: bald treads that couldn't bite the icy road; bitten
by a sudden desire to travel.
To eat into; corrode.
To cause to sting or be painful: cold that bites the skin; a conscience
bitten by remorse.

Please send submissions to: submissions@losangelesjournal.com
