Dollpoem
Doh - here's a version with the pic!

Been in a horror writing mood lately and Lindseyd's Creepy Doll inspired me to write a poem for it!

In case you can't see the text on the image - here it is:

Tumbling ringlets, pale strung gold
Will draw you to her sweet, sharp cold.
Glassy eyed, she’ll grab your lungs
And steal your breath
And tie your tongue

Porcelain, her skin, like cream
Will brush your cheek in honeyed dreams
She’ll fill you up, then drain you dry
And break your will
And black your sky

Anemones
An odd poem to accompany casvellon's apocalyptic dream picture.

(Had to make it in Paint so here's the text in case you can't read it :)

Apocalyptic anemones
Futuristic enemies
A marine-urbane attack
An uncybernetic hack
Cement and concrete street
Now a sealess coral reef
Starry parasitic powers
Disassemble jenga towers
Dream dims, spine chills
Shake awake
Grown
GILLS!

Couldn't get MelonBerri's adorable little critter out of my head so I wrote him a poem!

At first, he liked the scener...

A tiny rhyme inspired by horrorshock666's brilliant drawing.

On sunny days it kept him safe in shade
but other days it rained on his parade.

For Bloemday's lovely remix

Grace is the ageless,
the unchanging,
delicate true beauty
not shaken by the passing clouds
not muddied by the petty
little problem...

The optimistic sisters called their new abode ‘bijou’

And if it grew stale in the belly of the whale,

They would stew a fragrant brew
