It is time for a challenge and since Halloween is just around the corner, I am challenging you to write in the theme of FEAR.
I am giving you until 10/31 to write a poem about fear. I know this is not much time, but I think we can still come up with some great stuff. Think about your fears and write what immediately comes to mind. As a fan of poetry shorter in length, I challenge you to write something short- but make sure it packs a punch!
To enter, post your poem in the comments of this blog and on November first I will pick and winner who will receive 100 points, and a feature in our group, and as one in 's personal journal.
Come on, do it. Give me your fears!

The caulking cracks like paper planes
In a headwind made by fire's sprint
Presented eyes as flashing gouts
Against the grey of rotten skull
Gating denizen cruelly flourish
Paired spectral rays of spearing sears
Have alignment on my back
Between hysteric floating cages
My feet in forest caught the blaze
God fearing can my senses whiff
The sweet gangling dreamcatcher
Come to whisk my soul
Cinder blocks have melted black
All walls obstruct be feathers felled
The tide growing like a sword
Pierce deeper my septum's beat
Have ivory keys that play off scale
From angles ignored surmount my loss
Recollection come late in pleas
Of pressing screams that echo long
Branch strike gashes on my cheek
Forearm bleeding from the frame
Embedded all that remains
Of precept protection duly slashed
Looking glass instead see red
Of moving tears coated and sick
My ocean dammed has creeks in folds
A hundred stones add up what was
White flash green in swirling skits
The mythic secret I must face
My bedtime fears scattered afar
Now that one chars my raised hairs
I feel heckling spirit's calm
The patient everliving fact
My pious freedom taken shape
To break the pillar I thought was high
Reaching binds soundly clasp
The air siphoned as I breathe
It seals my essence from the world
To better savour what I am
Doors leave parts into my flesh
Trenches slicked my breast and flanks
Have femur fractured now or fore
Mix scarlet to the mud and brick
The creature grinds my hourglass
Its molars make sand spectacles
Like thorny crown my faith made truth
Will dig a lash into its claim
It follows me into the night
A flightless hare followed by fang
With Phoenix feathers brightly lit
Resurrected from my ash
