Word of the Day Challenge #52-Untitled Poem

Come one come all

we have no age restrictions

there are rides here for everyone.

Games to delight the young ones

Tunnel of Love

for all the wicked ones.

Blood red heart

valentine cartoon shape

pierced through with barbed arrow

can you see

the blood oozing from the hole

rather graphic is it not?

Canvas creaks

ropes strain

wind creeps up whistling

clown faces loll

dressed in frowns

back away

turn and run.

Skip through the darkness

heart raging in your chest

panic rising

squeals caught in your throat

do not look back for you shall see

there is no escape

they are gaining on you.

Welcome new comer 

join our dance

the Circus of Horrors 

crowds into your thoughts.

Raging fear

eyes rolling back

thunder cracks

lightening rolls against darkened skies

torrential downpour

peppers your skin

hail the size of golf balls

next you know

the grass arises.

Awaken silver collar around

weak

salivating

smell dark blood

old blood around

canine teeth

deep growl

part of the Circus you have become.

Hello And Welcome

Good Morning All!

I have been a busy bee this morning.

I realized in looking over my blog, that I had way too many categories and duplicates of poetry, writings etc.

So this morning, since 6:30 a.m. (it is now 11:19 a.m. my time) I have been re-organizing and streamlining my categories. I have added more tags, but each item is categorized only once with the exception of my Fantasy-Poetry. It will still also appear in the Poetry Category.

I also in my infinite wisdom determined that I should clean up the images I have added and make more space for my own photos. Not that I have not enjoyed looking for and finding the perfect images to compliment my work, but I realized I have not been giving credit where credit is due. And that is so unfair to those whose works I have stolen without meaning too. I just really like the images.

Well, as I am going along and deleting, not reading what is on the screen, it finally hits my tiny little brain that there are more words than just ‘are you sure you want to delete?’ It actually reads when deleted it will be deleted across the board. Soooooooo I quickly pop over into my poetry and sure enough some of the images I had used are now gone. I will now have to go in and see if I can find any photos of my own to use or see if I was smart and did not delete off my computer.

For those who have been with me in my journey to those who have just joined in on the madness that is my poetry, my writing and my life. The humor and sometimes the sadness that I see, I hope that you will all enjoy.  And I hope that it will be easier for you to navigate through my blog. Looking for and finding pieces to enjoy.

Thank you everyone for helping me to realize my dream.
