Contest Entries So Far Part Nine

This DREAMLAND

on A SWIFTLY TILTING PLANET

will ONE DAY

WITHER.

A WICKED

TRICKSTER'S CHOICE will

SPEAK to

MONSTERS OF MEN

who FALL FOR ANYTHING.

On the EDGES

of DELIRIUM

they're NUMB.

They're GOING TOO FAR.

Dying INSIDE OUT.

Already THE WALKING DEAD.

But THE THINGS THEY CARRIED

will LINGER

FOREVER,

and NEVER LET YOU GO.

Schipper 5:41

Northwest marine weather?

Fly now!

Toward the light!

It's nothing to be frightened of.

Leaving America,

It's a mammoth undertaking.

But farewell, my lovely.

No more holidays on ice for me.

Do travel writers go to hell?

I'll tell tales from the torrid zone!

The Disenchanting Truth

The Truth About ForeverIs that Bright And Shiny Morning(s)Are for the Lucky One(s).

At Second Glance,The Little Prince won't comeTo The Rescue, Which means She's Come Undone.

The Girl Who Played With Fire,Was found Running With Scissors,Saying, "Someday My Prince Will Come,"Unaware of The Slow Vanishing.

She'd FallenAnd become a Loose GirlWho live in The Glass CastleFull of Disenchantments and Stolen Innocence.

She was A Woman Betrayed.She wasn't Lucky.

Counting The Hours,She learnedCertain Girls aren't Those Who Save Us.

And That's How I Live Now.

Here THE CHOSENShuddering his SUMMONSFrom the bosom of DUSKAs the PALE FIRE dies awayTHE COLOR PURPLE bleedingInto the ragged soul of NIGHTHere no MAN FOR ALL SEASONSHere no SANCTUARYHere instead the LORD OF THE FLIESHis carrion throat WHISTLING IN THE DARKWeep, oh, CRY THE BELOVED COUNTRYTHE YEARS OF CHILDHOOD crumbling Here the INVISIBLE MANHere AN AMERICAN TRAGEDYAs in an INFERNO of MYSTERY AND IMAGINATIONTHE SUN ALSO RISES

Drama City It's the dark of the moon Or so it seems on this naked earth Where fools die And this I believe Is bait and switch The classic game change A common move for hustler days For surely its blasphemy To call it homicide It's more like the unholy ghost That's counting coup While stalking those still crying wolf In the cosmic landscape And in the end we are all livin' the blues Because you get so alone at times it just makes sense To continue the struggle in this nightmare town

TAKE JOY

in A CIRCLE OF QUIET,

THE SECRET GARDEN,

and ON THE BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA.

Yet when SHADES OF GRAY

in THE FALLING RAINDROP

and DARK WATER RISING

cause A WRINKLE IN TIME,

gather A SINGLE SHARD

and FEATHERS

ACROSS FIVE APRILS,

bringing LIGHT IN AUGUST...

...and REVOLUTION.

WHILE OTHER PEOPLE SLEEP, the FOOL and THE STOLEN CHILD meet in THE BROKEN PROMISE LAND to learn HOW TO BE GOOD.

"CHILD OF MY HEART," THE IDIOT cries, 'IF YOU COULD SEE WHAT I SEE, you'd SING DOWN THE MOON or DIE TRYING."

"CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET?" asks the child. "IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER I WOULD PICK MORE DAISIES. and I'd keep THE LAST DANCE for myself. NOBODY KNOWS THE DEVIL ALL THE TIME."

ODE TO BOOKS

the ORIGINS

timeless as the COSMOS

HUSH, HUSH (i'm reading)

i'll read FOREVER

the page, PASSION

i'll be DEAD TO THE WORLD

sit upon a THRONE OF FIRE

responsibilities my LAST SACRIFICE

I made a BLOOD PROMISE

to reach story's CRESCENDO

i SHIVER

we read because WE WANT FREEDOM

to grow NEW BONES

to make THE RIGHT MISTAKE

and WE ARE NOT SAVED

but we are BREATH, EYES, MEMORY

KINDRED in our stories

Felicia 8:58 pm

It was on the distant streets of "MANHATTAN, AS A SECOND LANGUAGE" they spoke gangster.

"WICKED PREY" stalked the streets searching...

Inside it was quiet, sweet and smooth; we called it "the HOUSE AT SUGAR BEACH," me and my sister Lilly

It was a way of escaping the "NUMB" hearts and souls we found on the way

"THE WAY OF STORY" coming from my grandmother's lips calmed us every night

My Daddy stayed out late, Momma had left long ago, but he had dreams, and he knew "HOW TO GET RICH"

"A MAN-CHILD IN THE PROMISED LAND", he dreams unreal that would cost him an arm, leg, and a life to steal

"NOW AND THEN" Lilly and I would hear life on the streets

"THE RISING AND THE RAIN... "the up and the down

"MERCY MERCY ME God loves me, Lilly and I had made up our own prayer to keep us safe from this lifestyle

We laid our heads on our pillows; suddenly we shared a "SPLIT IMAGE" of our worst nightmare.

The" OPENING SHOTS" weren't the worst, just shocking

Lilly escaped the room like a "LOST DOG as more gunshots struck the waiting town

I chased her around the corner, down the stairs, and to the doorway of my house

To find Lilly, now "BROKEN PREY", lying lifeless.

The life escaped 6 year old Lilly "LIKE VAPOR" while daddy looked on

She had been "THE ROSE THAT GREW FROM CONCRETE for so long

Lilly now took a road of her own

I Leaned over my sister's flush face, placed my lips on her cheek and gave her a soft "cinnamon kiss"

"A STRANGER IN PARADISE" shined a light, soothed my soul, and blessed my heart; I knew she would be safe.

Kirsten 9:04pm

Trapped

in the tempest

of the forgetting room,

betwixt

radiant shadows

and never, where

obedience became

the blade itself,

the emperor of Scent

was servant of the bones

to the elegant witch,

I was a spy in the house of love.

Promise not to tell.
