Premium Member Steampunk Mouse MacIntire
Steampunk mouse had a suit of gears and copper to admire A fine specimen, great soldier, he had been the king’s squire But now he was a stylish gentle-mouse, dare he attempt to go higher? I could become general, he thought, the consequences dire. Not that, said his mother, to her firstborn son, MacIntire. I want you to be safe,...

In the copper-clad cradle of time where gears whir fugues to forgotten dreams..... the fog—a somnolent specter—drifts..... veiling the calculus of progress a manuscript etched by steam and soot. Hark The hiss of pistons proclaims a triumph—or perhaps a dirge— for we have harnessed Hephaestus’ fire yet grasped not his wisdom. Verne's visions chart the oceans of steam while Shelley weeps for monsters born in...

Clockwork Girl
In cogs and gears, her heart does beat, A clockwork girl, both strange and sweet. Her eyes, like polished brass, aglow, Reflect the time, the world below. With gears that click and springs that chime, She measures moments, day and time. A copper bodice, sleek and tight, Holds secrets in the fading light. Her hands, of bronze, a delicate dance, Point to the hours,...

Steampunk Santa had a little gear wheel in his step. He moves so happily he has so much lovely pep! We watched him silently and noted his steampunk ways. He endeared himself to the convention these winter days. What does he do that others do not, someone asked. Not sure, but he is marvelous showing off each inventive task. Steampunk Santa...

Premium Member Tee the Steampunk Inventor
The steampunk inventor named Tee had a glorious rep. We waited for him gladly on the top institute step. A pretty girl walked by dressed in steampunk gear. With the kind of beauty most scientists fear. We knew not to whistle, that is frowned on today. She greeted us with a smile, she had a soft way. I am Tee she...

Premium Member Steampunk Beetle
Steampunk beetle knew how to dress. He was always immaculate, never a mess. I liked his monocle too, I must confess. I visited him often in the home of my grandma Bess. The one thing that he did of which I could not agree…. He replaced body parts with metal, first an arm, then a knee. Why do you do this?...

Premium Member stare of steampunk Max
such an intense brown-eyed stare from a young guy steampunk max, I supposed, from his loud sigh I had heard of him, and his dangerous all-knowing eyes His gears, coppers and whistles were not a surprise He gave me a look of dismissal and brevity too I wondered if he had heard of me, but had no clue in an instant,...

Premium Member Steampunk Faerie
Steampunk faerie sat on the vintage car Peering long and hard, and way too far She could see past the horizon to her father’s house Where a kitten was toying with a tiny mouse How are your eyes this great? Someone asked. I am not sure, she said, they are gold, not masked. The asker looked into steampunk faerie’s eyes. Her corneas...

Premium Member Meeting Steampunk Tiger
Loud guttural roar filled Steamboat Convention Hall Stovetop hats rose up higher, and most were already tall. The tiger made his entry with a loud snarl and a pounce. Watch out! Someone yelled. I think this creature can bounce. We ran out of the way, as fast as heavily-dressed convention goers can. Tiger made a bounding leap and soon was...

Premium Member Dapper Steampunk Cat
Steampunk cat gentleman was dressed up at nine. Dapper, distinguished, handsome, in every way fine. You would make a fine date for any feline. Said my aunt Tootsie, who lived in the Rhine. Fifty years ago, she told him, I would have made you mine. He jumped up and ran off, without a whimper or whine. You scared him! Said her...
