Freezer Mice - the Prequel

earliest ancestor was a creature very similar in both
size and appearance to a modern day shrew]

Mission Impossible - the Prequel
I bet they laughed, I bet they howled
I bet Winston Churchill growled
Where’d you get this loony from
He’s talking ’bout a bouncing bomb
All the drawings all the plans
All the notes and telegrams
Tell what happens when one slams
Barrels into concrete dams
Laden heavy for the flight
Nineteen bombers in the night
A secret plan too mad to warrant?
First

The Prequel
"The Prequel"
by: Eric L. Boddie
In my Life, I have come across so many people
And all of them are truly equal
Because we all must battle evil
And everyday, that is the sequel
And some don't agree with how I Chase The Steeple
Maybe it's because I am balder than the eagle
Or perhaps because instead of a brush, I

What a Mess We Made, the Prequel
love her for the ride
she loves to riot
write to her
right or wrong
she loved
and it lasted
tongue-tied
in tears and in longing
for simpler poem titles
in sweeter whispers
of nothing
in solidarity
in more of nothing
in a lover's soliloquy
or in simply - being
in love
would you dare
to love
the ride
or her
would you dare
make the mess we made

Prequel To the Fall
As a springtime fancy turns into love
And from a dandelion sprouts a rose
Her eyes so enticing, her smile so inviting
With every raindrop our love grows
In the meadow where we first made love
On your blanket out in a field
Temptation took hold, and our once unknowns
To each the other revealed
Now the smell of the honeysuckle
Adrift

How I Became An Immortal-A Prequel To An Immortal's Tale
It was the Roman times,
A high noble I was,
The city was under a rule of mimes,
Passed to control, were silent laws.
I travelled outside the city walls,
For a really important trade,
And suddenly my chariot stalls,
In front of us was a blockade.
The bandits swarmed over us,
All my companions fled,
So I was captured, thus,
To their place, I was

Prequel To the Horses By Edwin Muir
It was not a decision taken lightly
When we found that our free servitude
Unrequited was by our chosen masters
With their metal monsters they had fallen in love
Growling,roaring and spitting fumes
Our nostrils filling with the smell of burnt sugar
Until that became an acrid stench
Drowning all the sweet sounds and scents of nature
In the raw
Our fields they usurped
While

Lost - a Prequel
whatever would be
the point of intervention
what good would it do
i know where they are
i know right where i lost them
so then are they lost
the meaning of lost
seems to be ambiguous
what a sketchy word
you can't find your keys
and so therefore you lost them
i know where they are
so then are they lost
lost to you but not to

Voice of the Unheard Da Prequel
BY EZAR
HE WAS ONLY SIXTEEN WITH A FIT SICK CLEAN
FULL OF FOCUS ON LIFE DREAMS
STACKS OF CREAM NICE CARS WITH HIGH BEAMS
ADMIRING DBOYS WHO CONTROL THE BLOCK
AROUND THE CLOCK LIKE A MONOPOLY ON STOCKS
CASH FLOW SEEMED TO NEVER STOP
HALF A BRICK HE COPED
SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS TAUGHT HIM HOW TO CHOP
NOW HES

Sun's Shadow, Prequel
The Shadow of the Sun
Empty conversations full of
words with no point…
Happy statements that hide
what is real…
Long talks that betray nothing
of the past…
Days on end of words
exchanged…but no insight to
the truth...
Years of close contact…but
nothing has been revealed…
The truth is like a shadow…
hiding in the sun…
The shadow that shines in
darkness…that

Portraits of Evil/That Haunting Lavender Prequel Final Part
Years would pass
Families would come and go
Boys grew into men
And girls into women
Seasons would change
As Alexandra quietly roamed
The dark rooms of her castle of dreams
Now a dungeon of gloom
Silently biding her time
Waiting for the day
A handsome young man would arrive
To take up residence
In the summer of two ��"thousand
Sebastian and Sharon moved into the old

Portraits of Evil/That Haunting Lavender Prequel Part 2
II
The great depression of the twenties began,
Despite Darren’s extended work hours
The business’s revenue gradually began to decline
As Alexandra continued to paint
Aside from her sudden bout of illness
Seeping up on her
It became dismissed
As being contracted due to treacherous weather
The prolonged absence of Darren
Was accompanied with a nagging emptiness
Began to grow increasingly intolerable
Somewhere,
