Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

I want you all to write poems using only nine words. Bend that rule where you can. The winner of the thread gets a blood-sucking imp and magical powers.

Nothing so formal
as wolves
will tear us apart
...
Fold, quick lick
tenderest press; behold!
into the letter-box

Measure the wingspan of desire
deny gravity
take flight
...
An untrusting glance
can kill, again
just ask Eurydice

Never tried poetry before

Snowstorm, workers' delight
Snug in comparison

Innocent lightning

Bulletproof heart;
sheets of ice

Not paradise

balerbower take N+1 purple points, wolvenreign gets himself twenty two blue points, while Lucedes takes up the rear with 1 yellow star and tapeslinger stays steady with one and a half fragments of the hobgoblin blade.
Kit think too hard
And break.
A distant choir beckons

Dancing haplessly in Abaddon

the best part of all
she was married!
But still love
The word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
With mouth open
Stench of decay surrounds me.
I am empty
I need to be filled
Braiiins!
Eyes closed forever
Do I die?
Eyes open forever

creep out like nightmares
Friggin' snow day.
why this can not
simply be.
yet perpetually attuned
the cycle continues.
Welcome to the world on this side.
And why am I sticky?
Big night,
"You just have to do it."
edit:
Sometimes, she said
You just have to do it.
Maybe it's better without quotation marks.
My gleeful face
Noms the lines
But first,
Gonna finish my tea.
the word terrabad.
Oh shit.
Holiday cheer

for our endless insanity
need to lay off
the coffee

stop being so empty.
Please?
is I can
never finish what...
Is that Angelic
Light ahead? No
just White Castle.
The pain recedes.
The memories linger.
Ball shots hurt.
A gentle breeze
unfelt by my skin
Microsoft Windows
The journey ended
The ring melted
40 more minutes
where have all
the cowboys gone
doo doo doo
Learn from the
Golden Child Vanhelsing
Drink Holy Water.
she said beads.
but all he
heard was bees.
the line between
madness & brilliance
