It's BACK!!!

HarlotsBeast · 01-18-2006, 07:35 PM

I gotta try this once again... it's been awhile since I've done this but hey.. all good things come to those that wait and well, I've been waiting a long time now...
So let's post something here ppl.

Here's how it goes... For those of you that don't know this...

Ten to twenty lines, use all the words in the list, you must use the line I provide as the final line in your poem.

So, without further adieu...

Your list of words:
ravenous, myriad, shadow, dank, insane, blank, vague, dream

your last line is: The Harvest Moon kept me company.

After a few posts or two days, I'll post my own.

Thanks for your time and I hope to read some interesting things.

A new chapter, a blank page, turning point.
Vague outlines, a story to be told.
A myriad of directions, which way to choose?
Shadows of the past, their stories last.
I dream to impress myself upon the world
Like ravenous beasts they swallow anything I write.
The insanity of it all, what I write is never right.
In this dank little world one thought gives me hope.
A glowing muse in the sky, a friend to me.
The Harvest Moon kept me company.

It's not my best work but it's been awhile. It's good to see you back and have these to look forward to again. It's always fun and a challenge to my creativity, thanks Topher.

a dream once was
now but a mere shell
picked bare by the ravenous thoughts
of a mind once full of hope
but those hopes so vague now
resting in the dank shadows
of the truths of old
the mind slowly fades
into the myriad sea of regret
guided by the insane
why can't life return to a blank page?
why can't it start over?

it sucks... but hey. haven't written in a while

Like my namesake, thanks Topher for bringing this back.

n' good read Brandon!

Hey, thanks guys. Lovin the posts. I thought this would have taken a little longer to get any responses.
It's good to be back. I'll post something a little later today. Just woke up and I need some food and coffee before I think.

stina · 01-19-2006, 10:51 AM

i'll have to take some time with this, but its totally an awesome idea!! just wanted to let you know

HarlotsBeast · 01-20-2006, 02:21 AM

I used to do this sort of thing quite often a while back. Once in a while I would get a rather good response to it, other times, it's like the thread was never seen.

Once I get two more responses/posts in here I'll fire out something quick and easy.

stina · 01-20-2006, 05:10 PM

i wasnt here back then, but it sounds awesome!

HarlotsBeast · 01-22-2006, 02:42 PM

Alright, I"m going to attempt this again. I had almost a full poem typed up when my browser crashed on me last night. If I can think of something today I'll post it. **working on it right after I post this...**

HarlotsBeast · 01-22-2006, 02:50 PM

Myriad shadows danced around my room
vague thoughts of you
a ravenous appetite for your touch
tore me apart
Laying down in this cold, dank abyss
my dreams turned eerie
My expressions became blank
as I slowly became insane
I died here, alone
as the harvest moon kept me company.

Gilgar · 01-22-2006, 09:12 PM

Nice visuals.

HarlotsBeast · 01-23-2006, 06:35 PM

Thanks. It's not quite what I had started earlier but I think it's better.. It's been a while since I've done any spur of the moment writing also...

silencer69 · 01-23-2006, 06:42 PM

I have the weirdest mental block with writing...as I drive around, or get bored, or anything that "zones" my mind out, things come to me all day long...song lyrics, poems, etc.......

but if I even think about "I think I'll write something" I get nothing. zero. zip. zilch. nada.

*sigh*

-Teresa- · 01-23-2006, 08:33 PM

Alright let the hating begin, Yes I know this is a poem, however, its a game type poem process, so these go in the game room. I mentioned this when these were being made last time.

You can get upset all you want, but you will do so by pm'ing me, yet these will be moved to the game room regardless.

Thank you

when it comes to songs i write to sing or put music to, i'm the same way. but i can usually make up just about anything if i have to
