Anyways, rules are as follows, write a poem in any style using the five words that I give you. Write it in one sitting or in under an hour (only to quash your inner editor, rules are loose there). Add it here, OR link in a comment so we can enjoy each other’s' poems. The words can be in any plurality or tense. Today’s words are: creature, fright, monster, night, dance Mine is as follows: Monsters are as monsters do, Dancing through the night. Darkness and fog their purview, While giving off a fright. Jobs they have from times untold Creatures thick and thin are they, Terrifying to behold, Until the light of day. **yeah missed a word! fixed, my bad, lol

and I might have to hold onto it and make it longer, and get a friend to illustrate it, with halloween like coloring pages!

My right and left feet have never welcomed the dance and yet I am a creature of the trail not finding fright in shadow and vining brambles the desert dry sojourn my monster it being night there and sun-scape beneath the firs towering grandfatherly smoke.

@Jessicalynnt You either. I am very tired from my drive yesterday. I managed to crank out another poem on my site. Your words help me work it.
