This first one is a poem that I wrote for a poetry contest/game on another forum. My inspiration was a drawing of a female bassist. This poem was a little annoying to write because there was a 50 word limit in the rules. I'm satisfied with how it turned out though.

The Low End Girl

Body, thin, lithe,
Smooth skin

One eye, golden, hidden
Beneath explosive, messy hair
One eye, half closed, a light
Seen through a slit

Frets sigh in ecstasy,
As her nimble fingers
Dance across them

From the instrument,
A deep tune resonates

Her head tilts back,
She smiles with pleasure

This second one I wrote a while back, it's sort've Inheritance themed.


Lazy Eye

Ocean raging below us
Waves white capped throw
drops, furious, skyward

The sky above us, gray,
Forks of cold fire
flash the world into
being, a gelatinous monster,
Blue, the ocean

His scales, green,
Reflect ocean and
Lightning in a vast rainbow

His wings beat a
sonorous taboo, crushing
The air into submission,
forcing it to keep him aloft

He is mighty, but
For me, he is only
Love, play

The rain, wind, whips
My long hair, stings
My smooth cheeks,
But I care not

I pull close to his
Scaly body, diamond bright,
and feel the
Beating of his massive heart
and soak up the
Fiery warmth of his scales

He looks back
at my touch
He bears his fangs, a
fearsome grin, love

His lazy lizard’s eye,
ocean in color,
Tosses me back a
scaly wink, emerald, sapphire

A gout of purest crimson flame
Explodes from his maw
The rain becomes steam
The chill disappears

In our cloud, we
Savor the moment
Cherish the sky,

My dragon and I
