Phantom Dreams

The tangled torrid scenes of twisted pregnant fiends
among the muted yells where guilty conscience dwells...

Craig you're just amazing with these forms of poetry . You've really put a lot of study into it and it's paid off. Sigh, I can only wonder where you come up with these lines, but you're an incredible writer. A fave for me . Hugs

Thanks so much Maria but ironically I have to change this one because the rhymes must have more than one syllable per the judges requirements.

Never liked pregnant fiends. Probably never will, especially the yelling sort ;)

I really love how you’ve written this, i would like to learn this form too, you’ve done yours seamlessly as always. My favorite is the second line! So deep!

Thanks Inky - actually, I screwed up, because the rhymes are supposed to be polysyllabic and what I wrote is single - back to the drawing board. Anytime you wish help with meter (though this contest doesn't require it - mail me) This particular form is often requires iambic hexameter which I will edit it to.
