Poem Collab 2010-02-01 23:44:52 Reply

A lot of people seem to like to write poetry, or want an opportunity to. This Poem Collab is essentially the writing forum's response to flash collabs. Simply right a quatrain that continues the thought of the previous quatrain. Format, theme, and content can be whatever you'd like. The objective is simply to progress the poem, while providing your own unique flare.

The only rule is, try not to double post, or post with a single post buffer. At least two (2) people need to have posted between your two posts. Also, when you post, just post your quatrain, don't copy the previous ones. If you have to say something aside from the quatrain, please do so after the quatrain, and grey it out to make the quatrain more prominent.

------------------------

Mystical marvels and potent potions,
littered the lair of Norton McMere.
When, from outside, there came a commotion,
and through the air peeled, a scream of fear.

Upon the ground lay the piper!
He had been pipping, when down came a wiper.
"A wiper, here?" said he.
"Why here would this be?"

"Mr. Wiper!" cried he (The piper, I mean).
"I've been attacked by a monster, quite large and lean!"
And the wiper, at his side, could not help but stare.
And all this outside the lair of Norton McMere.

The monster's obscene!
He's wrinkled and green!
And has ten inch long pointed fangs!

He's wearing a skirt
and a cute little shirt
with lipstick that matches his bangs.

But do not be fooled,
it is the nature of the beast
to nurture it's sadistic ways.

Never may the eye draw closed.

Addicted To Love

by Denis Stranjak

Every single day,
She's my reason to go on,
My last thought before dusk,
And my first after dawn.

She holds a place in my heart,
A place in my soul,
Without her in my life,
I'd never feel whole.

I long for her touch,
Every minute of every hour,
In the driest desert,
She's my glowing flower.

I don't need an answer,
From anyone up above,
I admit to myself,
I'm addicted to love.

Thanks for reading the first post, Duego.

A beast so sinister, I've never seen,
To have done this foul deed;
The piper never hurt a buzzing fly,
To be wiped so cruélly.


If you don't like my poetry, scroll down the page a bit. It gets better.

As such the piper yelled in pain,
the creature enjoying its sadisitc ways,
and as skin was ripped of his face,
the piper felt saved,
for there came a great man with a mace.


"I am the devil, and I have come to do the devil's work."

Here I am bellowed Norton McMere,
as he waved his weapon to and fro.
With magic words, his buddy appeared,
Darnell with a gigantic afro.

The monster looked up to see such a sight
an afro glowing with a most holy light
the piper quietly wet himself
seized as he was with this terrible fright.
