BITING_BEYOND

   Starting with the "biter bit",
   where do you go from there?       BITER_BIT

   I think the form has largely
   gone out of favor (though it
   could be it survives in an
   area I'm not familiar with,
   such as modern horror movies).

   You might try "updating" the
   form... there are many different
   kinds of biters out there, and
   one might very well enjoy seeing
   them come to bad ends.                E.g. watching Karl Rove flame-out,
                                         waiting for a fix that never comes in.

       We might try
       various inversions:

         o  the angelic receive
            their just rewards

         o  the biter is not bitten



       What if the justice involved
       is not cosmic justice, but
       rather engineered by a human        REVENGE
       actor?  Then there *is* a
       hero in the story, but the
       pov is the villain.


       You might try exploring
       different notions of              You could add another layer
       "cosmic justice": evil            of irony, and use the form
       considered as a weak              to make fun of someone
       strategy that's likely to         else's notion of justice:
       fail in the long run.             the divine right of
                                         Republicans, the depraved
                                         ends that await all perl
                                         programmers, etc.
