Unfortunately Styx is unavailable this month, so I am your temporary host Cariad! o: Last month's winner was timexhasxgone with her beautiful poem A Saviour. The imagery created in her piece was amazing and she had a good use of repetition. Very well done :3 This month's theme is, of course, Hallowe'en. Your best attempt to spook us! Good luck, guys!
Ohmygoodness. Thankyou ;D Didn't expect to win. No lie. I might enter this month, ....I'm just surprised right now and I might need to take a nap to recover o:
NICE ONE timexhasxgone awesom poem again ^_^ Pointless running A gasp for breath, a cry for help. A scream as a hand grabs my arm. A quick increase in speed as a shout comes from behind. A glance behind, big, big mistake. A bump right into another zombie. A witches laugh from the shop ahead. A face-to-face encounter with a witch. A whole load of laughs while I scream. A sudden occurring though. A dumb person I am, how could i forget it's halloween? EDIT: Imade a better one is it ok to swap? hunting We sneek around hunting our prey. Lurking in the shadows watching in dismay. The others are taking what we need to survive. They don't need it we have to revive. We creep to the preys habitats and make a bang. We go to shadows and wait until thre bell rang. We move ahead and see they beat us to it. Why do they do this, we only want a bit. We hurry to the last habitat but the prey is gone. Damn those bullies they took the last bon-bon.
Christianity's End Christianity's End The moon shining wolves howling to the sky death is what they bring spirts flying by the water turning scarlet a burnt church your very fate is writ now every tree turns dark as birch bodies rising from the grave darkness shrouding your sight you are now satan's slave your future is now dark as night your now bond in chain God has been slain
Goodnight Goodnight. I would preach to you all, but you're too young to be told. You got me rolling round in an ecstasy of gold. So, put on your face. Slap on that smile. Praise to your god; I haven't seen him in a while. Watch the coffin being lowered, 6 feet under-ground. A body being buried, never to be found. Black crows flying, A solemn mood awaits, The sharp sting of depression strikes the human race. Satanic bells ringing, sending out a warning-call. Christian hearts beating, though god resents them all. So put on your face. Slap on that smile. Praise to your god, I haven't seen him in a while. Don't make me laugh with your jibber and your singing. This won't turn out pretty with satanic bells ringing. You know this will end, With suffering in the final hour, It's hard to comprehend; the world withering like a flower. Praise to your god. I'm staring at his face. Praise to your god. May he save the human race.
Well this feels pretty fucking weird, I don't think I have ever entered one of these. Not expecting to do that well, but what the heck, nothing to lose. Spoiler Trick or Treat Distracted by the sound Of children running ‘round Screaming in delight On this Halloween night Running from door to door Hands held open asking for Toffee apples and delicious treats Sugary chocolates and candy sweets Ding Dong Ding Dong Hear the ringing of the bell Welcome the little darlings into hell Smile at their wide, open eyes Frozen in fear and lost in surprise As they see The smile carved into place On such a pretty, pretty face Insides scooped clean Flesh perfect, pristine The pulpy mush So sticky and lush Smeared between my fingers The satisfaction lingers As I toss away the seeds Out amongst the weeds In my garden See their delighted smiles They think it is all a trick They don’t see the mess So bloody, so thick That covers the kitchen floor A flood of flesh and gore The stink of burning skin From the candle placed within The grinning head that overlooks the street A dying breath of Trick or Treat Now I just need to decide What am I going to do? With what is left of you
Here is my poem :) Death's Lullaby Let me lay so darkness can surround as i sleep, allow the pain to stay so i can keep. let my soul be traped as time goes by, let sin and despair by my keepers as i stay in my cage day by day, let the blood become acidic eating away my skin as i listen to the Lullaby, the tone is smoothing yet sinfull as i stay listening to the black angel's words, i listen till i sleep pray to death my soul to keep, as my time beats away slowly make me love the pain as i sleep, let my body burn as i weep allow my soul stay so Death can keep.
It's Time Again It's time again, so peer into the night It's once again time, let us creep past the moon eerie sounds, and dim orange lights they conspire against us, to drive us back to our cocoon So let us slip past, and let's do it right For it is that time, we know it so well It's time once more, we're ready to fight But still the ghosts will go, where the would never dwell But still fear not for it is only one night What happens we will not know, only time will tell It's time now, so let us bring our monstrous queen The time has come, let it not be done poorly Though you may be envious and painted green For this is our night, our time of glory This time we know as Halloween I tried a rhyming scheme this time, IDK if I like the rhythm of it so much though :/
The War of November's Eve Beneath a haze of white hot stars The impostors scurry about Their masks and wigs and robes galore Derive a great deal of doubt Their identities are known to none But their goals are as plain as the night These humans in demonic drag want sweets And are equally hungry for fright They range in size and shape Though some are just too strange To fit into any category No matter how deranged They approach each and every door Their bags rustling throughout With the spoils of war within them They knock and gleefully shout "Trick or treat!" is their battle cry Their anthem of holy war And powerful it must be indeed To make candy fly out each door By the end of this chaotic evening The people's supplies are diminished But they look to the bright side At least this pillaging is finished Exhausted, they tread through their homes But suddenly, they're gripped by fear At the sudden dreadful revelation that This will all be relived next year.
Frankie's First Night Away Hiya, i'm Freddy from round the lane, Sorry Jason's being such a pain, I hear you’re the new kid on the street, We thought you'd like to Trick or treat, Since we thought you could use the meet and greet!!! Ha! I know your bro Drake won't be pleased, But...hell, he shouldn't have teased, bout what happened on this very night, 10 years back there was a sight, In the old abandoned estate, The night that took our cousin Kate, Man - it wasn't cool ...Just in the pool, Her body floating Our pants soaking, We thought of running, But we were still stunning, ... How the hell could he be so cunning? The Reaper had come, And left none, Blood on the walls - he's coming back, Yet… I haven't kept track, Don't you live on an estate? Where we once knew Kate? Huh... Hope you parents aren’t home... Since...they won't be alone...
