3... 2... 1... Wake Up!Three hours before

Beep beep… beep beep… beep beep… beep be-

Aaron's hand fell heavily on the small blue device sitting on the bedside. The clock paused the annoying sound coughing a flatly "cling". Without opening his eyes, the man turned sides and hid his face deeper in the pillow. He had no interest in getting up any time soon. He pulled the covers higher to his bed, almost covering his head and sighed exhausted. Seconds later he drifted again in a heavy sleep.

Two hours before

Beep beep… beep beep… bee-

Aaron's fist landed on the clock with a loud "bang". A crack was heard from the poor device and then a breaking sound. The man raise
ShortsA man walks into a bar with his dog, only to have the bartender see him and say, "I'm sorry sir, I'm going to have to ask you to leave, not pets allowed."
The man walks out dejectedly and sees another man about to walk in with his dog.
"The bartender just kicked me out for bringing my dog, he's going to kick you out, too."
The other man smiles and replies, "Watch this."
He walks in with his dog, and the bartender says something, pointing to the door.  The other man holds up his hands and says something, motioning to the dog.  The bartender shrugs and holds up his hands in apology.  The man with his dog stays and has a drink, then leaves.
Transylvania Express! Part OneAll alone rain dark night
Cold, wet, tired feeling fright
Distant noise rumbles, clatters
Eyes turn hopefully, silence shattered
Train out of nowhere appeared it seemed
Crossing bridge, nightmare of dreams.

Vampire express thunders through station
Train full of fury and hungry bites
Stay at home don't need vacation
Nothing would tempt me, fearsome sight.
Intrepid travellers ushered aboard
Transylvania, be assured.

Carriages race on track of steel
Thunderous noise, roar of wheel
Vampire passengers cocooned in style
Frenzy on hold, for short while
Looks are hungry in the cold
Dining tonight, all tickets sold.

A demons deathFlashes of crimson in the air
Blades of gory glory out for show
Dead eyes set in a stare
As death releases its red drawn bow

Dropped into the river Styx
Clawing hands pulling you down
Ignoring the hold on your crucifix
Uncaring and letting you drown

Bleeding from your outstretched hands
No one caring for sweet sacrifice
Sucked into unrelenting quick sand
Betting on fates thrown dice

They say life flashes before your eyes
In the last seconds of your breath
Guardian Angel really death in disguise
A single heart beat is all you have left

Then your corpse sinks to the floor
A puddle of crimson spreading out

The United Marionette
Eyes blind, and running in a direction unknown,
Oh what foolish pilgrimage has been chosen for us now?
All hail the way of conformity to the false prophets throne,
To the idolaters zealous fire do you march as you bow.

Forward you move, imploding and expanding simultaneously...
Rotting from within and denying your own flaws.
Changing your view and way so spontaneously!
Until even you do not understand what is your pathetic cause.

The philosophers in history say
that without conflict, can there be no progression...
And here and how, to your eyes is the cause of your delay...

Patient - Part 1The locker banged closed and she winced, taking a shallow breath.  Her head hurt worse today, a dull throbbing that reverberated in her skull like the ring of a pick striking stone in a vast cave.  The roar of conversation in the hall around her didn't help matters either.

She turned and made her way toward her next class as fast as she could to escape the deafening noise, holding her notebooks and textbooks clutched to her chest.  Breathing a sigh of relief once the door closed behind her, she chose a seat in the far back, where she could listen but not be distracted and – more importantly – not have to speak.

Not that speaking wasn't a go
Queen of Oblivion She tells them that
oblivion
is where she'd like to stay.

Weaving webs for those around her
to find
and tangle themselves in.
Webs of gossamer tears,
stitched in seams of
empty words
and shattered promises.

Playing God;
moving pieces in a game of
demonic chess.
Setting pawns for the fall
but ever-constant
in the protection of her
queen.

All-powerful but wary
of her own trappings,
she tiptoes
watching her plans
falling into place from
afar.

One Soul (Goodbye Annie)Two Souls, one tie.
Two souls enduring belligerence,
Two souls walk through dusk and gloom,
Two souls flogged with words of ignorance,
One soul accepting her doom.

Two souls cloaked with false bliss,
Two souls masked with shells and lies,
Two souls bound with a kiss,
One soul says her goodbyes.

Two souls torn by false might,
Two souls wallow in fears,
Two souls appalling to their sight,
One soul shedding endless tears.

So here I am, here's my goodbye,
Though do not heed my words, as they will never sever the tie.
My wounds are slowly healing, as my heart you still tame,
My wrists riddled with scarlet, all in your name

Haiku 1

:iconmistressofquills:

Eyes black and flinty,
He watches you in the night,
Stopping hearts with fright.

Where you don't expect,
Around every dark corner,
He waits to catch you.

Ghost who haunts your dreams,
Creature of whispered legend,
He is Slenderman.

Haiku 1by *MistressofQuills

I've only written a couple of haiku before, so I thought I'd give it another shot. I know, I know, Slenderman is such a cliche subject to write about, but it's an easy subject to start a new style with so don't judge me:tears: Anyway, tell me what you think!

The ending really surprised me, actually. Slenderman has been ALL over the place and so I too was a little disappointed -- however it doesnt' change that it's written well. It's funny how such few words can create an emotional reaction! Very spooky. I thought it was about a stalker or somesuch. Good job. :)

I've been turning to Haiku a lot recently since it's an easy and fun form of poetry to express yourself with. I have a few up in my gallery if you'd like to see them. :)

Ahaha!! I was thinking Slenderman all the way through the poem with a growing smile on my face, and when I saw "Slenderman" I laughed out loud. As great as this is, I can't take anything concerning Slenderman seriously anymore because of all the funny things I've mentally done with Slenderman. My friends and I decided he needs a girlfriend. XD

Oh, poor, lonely Slendy.
