This is a bit of a forum game, but at the same time it has the capacity to result in a bit of poetry, so it goes here. I'm going to supply a line of poetry, and the following poster is to create a poem using the line I gave as their first. Along with their poem, they supply a line for the next person to write poetry on. No restrictions on the type of line or poetry; just keep the line open ended.

Here's the first line:

A mountain pokes out awkward in the mist

It was now free, from its prison bed
after being locked away for years and years,
but they came,
and locked him away,
for the rest
of
eternity.

Roaring winds, cloudy skies,
I do not believe what is before my eyes,
for the storm is so great,
I believe that I might just faint.

The black dragon,
fierce and fiery,
lighting up the room.
His intentions are good,
but he really need food.


And through the mist

And through the mist,
I saw him,
Pale and dead as dust.

Through the mist,
I saw my boy,
Emerging from the rust.

In the darkness,
Caught him,
Light as skin and bones.

In the darkness,
Laid him,
Where he felt most at home.

This stanza tells you

This stanza tells you,
That I'm still hanging around,
On the fringes of the internet,
Dropping in when you least expect.

Hello is the beginning of goodbye.

Hello is the beginning of goodbye,
as life is the beginning of death,
might be doing suicide,
tomorrow I have a test.

"Get down here
and clean up your

the tornado came
destroying all in its path
everyone ran,
afraid of its wrath.
