Snatch

.

                     Ahhh
                   picture I
                     yesss 
             the one you know
                   and love
               late in the dark 
                cold wet night

                    SNATCH 

                      Ahhh
                     yessss
         as mine throat gurggles
and my dark dead green burly cloak
            consumes her sight

                      Ahhh
            who would imagine
               her warm flesh
               locked to mine
          and her without fright

                   Poor dear

It's still Valentine's with Frightnight twist...macabre love...(?) With just a few words, you've spun a gruesome tale, deadpan...It was fun! Seven. Waiting in suspense for what more are up your sleeve. Smiles from the land of thousand isles. :D Kim

Very dark - one might get a demented idea. The dark, dead, burly coat scares me. Reminds me of - here comes a candle to light you to bed, here comes a hatchet to chop off your head. Love, daver

Nice pen James! Don't know about this one, it sounds like creepy to me, a grave robber, body snatcher or something like that, anyway lots of great imagery and quite some suspenseful piece,my dear friend:) A 7 from me! I wish you a very wonderful day! In his light! God bless you! :) D.

hmmm, sounds like a vampire. Either that or a guy exposing himself in a very naughty way!!! Very entertaining read, my friend.

Well, not so sure about this one..I am wondering is this maybe Dracula or a zombie?..That is the popular theme these days..I am glad that I chose this one to read so that I have a question as to its interpertation..Sara
