Without You was AMAZING. That is exactly the way I feel.  It makes me feel better to know I'm not the only  one out there trying to wade through my feelings and confusion, and find peace. Keep up the good work!

Seems like it's been a while since we had a challenge...Anyone game? I'm getting in that Halloween mood--so how about a deathless love contest?<BR>
<BR>
Any form---any length---<BR>
but written to a famous movie monster, tongue in cheek?<BR>
You can also pick a non celuloid creepy---but the same rules apply...<BR>
<BR>
If you want to participate, make sure you mark your poem as an entry...<BR>
<BR>
one tiny codicil...Dracula SUCKS has been done to death...but if you come up with something more toothsome...<BR>
<BR>
Hehehehehehehe.

I was gonna do a werewolf poem 'cause werewolves are the scariest monsters. But I can't top yours so I'll have to think of another monster. Would the ghost of Jim Morrison qualify?

misti- I really liked Freedy aint got a steady. It made me laugh, because I know it was for Gala's contest. However it also showed real emotion, I imagine everyone has been made to feel that way in affairs of the heart. Good write.<BR>

Believe not the illusion so shallowly sold by Cosmo and the like: that great moments of passion can be conjured by twelve-step articles avaiable at any newstand.  They may be conjured or chided or scared off or coaxed, but the truly great ones, the moments of Passion, always descend unnanounced, gift like.  And in "A Little Gift of Me," thy art is the gift itself, descended.  <BR>

Bridget O: <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2002.09.13.19.02.18829">Tale Of Two Bloodlines</a> I don't usually like the dark vampire stories or poems but this one is well done<BR>
