Little Orange Troll

Wispy hair blew as he lied and took stands
Carried his giant ego through all the lands
This little orange troll
Hauled all of that bull
How did he hold on with such tiny hands?

Premium Member a horrible troll

she rebuffed his advances
he was more determined now
a horrible troll, a stalker, a misogamist
who thought what he wanted was of utmost importance
no matter who he had to violate, hurt, or abuse.

Visions Troll

Subject and Object,
who builds the bridge
From either perspective,
to laud or forgive

First person invective,
third person retort
The toll for each crossing
  —forever deports

Premium Member You Are the Troll

A troll

A startling encounter

With a mysterious

Personage merged in

A natural setting..

You as a troll merged

With  rocks and sky

And a slight smile

A knowing smile

Of the unknowing of

What seems coming 

And going...

Premium Member Slathering and Slithering

slathering and slithering
     sharp tiny teeth, 
     short and squat
              troll

You smile and he glares
  trying to look fierce

You laugh and he bites
         your foot

 sneaky as a snake
 and twice as mean

The only garden
   danger that 
   makes my
 blood run cold.


Premium Member Humiliated by a Troll

gnarly snarly wharly harly barley troll
when we use his path, he demands a toll
When we protest, he hangs us upside down
The villagers come by and call us clown

gnarly snarly wharly harly barley troll
Humiliating us kids is his ultimate goal
He is good at it, an expert in fact; I know.
He has hung me twice by my largest toe.

Troll Me Once

Troll me Once
Fool me
Troll me Twice
Pity the Fool
Where you bullied at School
Such is your worth
Is yours to curse
What you ain't 
You cannot paint
Nor write
For jealousy and spite
Your bark is worse than your bite
Goodnight 
Aspire to better erudite 
I call your bluff
Your words are not tough 
Hope thief consumed by grief

Premium Member Internet Troll

A vicious kind of beast,
Upon the vulnerable they feast,
Evil in everything they say
To ruin everybody’s day.

Cowardice is their type
As they feed on all the hype,
These sadistic vultures type away 
To ruin everybody’s day.

The lowest of the low,
No lower can you go,
Than the trolls who stalk their prey
To ruin everybody’s day!!

Premium Member Clay Troll

My life is a sculpture made of clay,
Molded of the trials and triumphs of the day. 
Break of dawn, shake the shingles and free,
Come dusk I'm cut into this statue and sleep. 

Sunlight hits and clay cracks open,
Breathing the sounds and light seeps in. 
Sunset, dusk is here - back in the mold.
No more light, frozen in time - the opposite troll.

Premium Member My Good Luck Troll

He is my good luck troll my grandma said.
If you want good luck, just rub his head.
She’s lost three sisters and a brother.
No thank you said my wise young mother.

Go on and give him a rub, grandma said.
He will like it, look, he’s leaning his little head.
She had been through eight disasters, plenty.
With luck like that, I do not want any.

Premium Member The Troll Who Did Not Care

The troll did not care
He was miserable
And glad of it
It had become his normal

His misery fed off of itself
Worms of destruction tried to shake him
He would not relent
He was comfortable in his stymied state

No one tried to speak to him
They left him in the forest
Where he petrified
Terrorizing those who stumbled upon him in the dark

Beauty of the Troll

He is despised by many
But he seeks the love of any
He sits pleading for a penny
But she does not help no,not Amy

He is mocked for his features
But he paints better pictures
He loves the wrong in all creatures
As he nullifies war's fixtures

He soars above the rest
As he builds love's nest
In his world no one is a pest
As this beauty is put to test

Premium Member Scared by a Graveyard Troll

in the graveyard on Halloween night
you are apt to see a scary sight
this evening a graveyard troll came by
he walked right past me and gave a “hi”.

It’s not Halloween, I thought, not feeling brave.
Where had he come from? was it that grave?
I said hi, he said, giving me a weird lopsided evil look.
I screamed, ran down the hill and fell into a cold wet brook.

Premium Member Copenhagen Legend of Tree Troll

Legend of Copenhagen says tree troll is a tale.
He is a wooden giant who drank way too much ale
This tall tale was fed to me by gullible cousin Gale.
Who also heard that tree troll devoured greens and kale.
We searched for this rascal over many hills and dale,
His infectious story was spreading fast without fail
Every version that came back to me was fun, never stale.

The Moses Toe

Pricklescoff sits at a Moses Toe
where two rivers meet
where two rivers flow
with one from his left 
and one from his right
as he, a troll, sits at the point
where two rivers meet
on into the night
and see all the fish
stickleback, minnow
swim as he sits
at the Moses Toe



Based on the novella Where Two Rivers Meet, A Dark Romance Fantasy by Clive Culverhouse

The Troll

The wee little troll 
He licked my arm
I really don't think 
He meant any harm 

Vulgar and disgusting
In his piggish ways
He moves very slowly
And begins to play

In his pointy shoes
He runs and frolics
Falls on his face
Wrinkles his nose

Decides to sit down
And begin to show
How he can behave 
To receive his treat

Which is a nice rub
To his wee, little, feet

Premium Member elk troll man

Elk troll man slithers out of the crevices of the cave
the evening feels his emotions and responds accordingly
Slinking along the corridor of red canyon’s edges
We wise ones ignore him, for it is his fervent wish to be invisible
Sure, we see him but none of us speak of it, our tongues silent
Respecting his wishes, and fearing Elk troll man’s wrath
his lightning reflexes to be feared

Premium Member Welcome To Troll Head House

Troll head house with her flower decorated hair
looks like a place you would enter on a dare.
It is a troll; her name is Miss Claire.
You’ll drop into a tunnel in her sweet little lair.

It will be fun; there is Charley, a nice polar bear.
His wife is Charlene, she will give you a dare.
Do not be provoked or tricked into teasing Miss Claire.
She is ready to turn the next person into a grizzly bear.

The Troll

Hunchbacked in a room, typing electric spells of doom,
breathing out fire, an alchemy of pain, suffering and desire.

Filtered beauty but oh, beneath, lies green skin and poisonous teeth,
with claws replaced by keyboard, where online posts replicate sword.

Eyes glassy, red with ire and fatigue; hate is sport, pole position in the league:
a troll swallowing prey in gigabytes whole; their innocence lost, our youth stole.

Depression Is a Spirit Troll

The worst part is waking up
With wispy, fleeting, figments of anxious dream
Looking at the clock and realizing
It doesn’t matter what time it is anymore
Then there’s the coffee
It tastes so good, but no longer has allure
Then mindless counsel with my laptop
To free my mind and replace the sad fog
That doesn’t leave, but dances, taunting
Into deep dark corners
Where it can continue throughout the day
To bug even the simple code

Premium Member Furzy the Forest Troll

Furzy the forest troll was stealthy, steady and shy
No one knew much about this stay-to-myself guy
His trips to the forest were made if no humans were around
Hours later his enormous footprints might be sometimes found

Furzy did not speak with the birds, fish, mammals or fey
If he sensed another large creature, he stayed away
His shyness was an asset that helped him to move without sound
Sometimes he pretends he is a bush, rolled up on the ground.

Troll

I can’t reveal what I really feel
as I troll through Goodreads and Book!
Here’s a nice face, in this social space,
but smarts is much better than look.
Not ready for any, and there are so many,
and I enjoy speculating and dream,
that an older bookworm, with a heart warm
will think I’m as nice as I seem.
I seldom reach out, so filled with deep doubt,
to any potential cute reader,
though once in a while, a comment I’ll style,
but I’ll hide before I ever meet her.
