Poem

Twisted by the fateless,

I flip into the shadows,

Coarsing with hidden hatred,

The mist calls for me,

 

Looking for those to calm,

Awaken when for broken,

I rest on your shoulders,

Protecting you,

 

Beckoning if I must,

Luring the Strong,

Away from your call,

I seize,

 

Shatter into a million,

Remaining among the fallen,

I will miss you,

Even when I return.

[b]Poem:[/b]
Do not stand at my grave.
I am not dead.
I am the light that guides you.
I am the one who loves you.

Do not put that rose you hold, upon my grave.
I am not dead.
I am who i am, that is all i can be.
You will remember me, not grieve for me.

I will not be forgotten.
For I am the light unto your feet.
I will not be mourned
For I am the one who makes you laugh.

Who brings that smile upon your face.
Who is the kindle to your fire.
Do not cry at my grave.
I am not dead.

[align=center]Ode of the Zombie Hunter

 

I woke up like any other day

Was late for work, again

As I drove, I saw children play

Soon all that would end

 

For on the news we heard did report

Of undead creatures, in the farm land

The farmers killed them for sport

But the zombies were in fact quite out of hand

 

I can’t say that I hate this new world scheme

We do as we please

There’s no political theme

But I have been bitten, I have the disease

 

But I never plan to join the leagion of undead

So just do as I said, put a shot through my head

I guess I shall never see the day

When the children do once again play[/align]

some people just don't appreciate a good sonnet, but hey it was only good enough for Shakespeare

Is it alright if the last stanza of the poem has five lines instead of four?

 

If so entry reserved

 

free verse i know but wouldnt that be pushing it? a good poem can limit itself :D

This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by removing from play 1 LIGHT and 1 DARK monster in your Graveyard. This card is also treated as a LIGHT Monster. All LIGHT or DARK "Femme Fatale" monsters on your side of the field are now both LIGHT and DARK Attributes. Once per turn, you can send 2 DARK monsters from your Hand or the field to the Graveyard to Special Summon 1 LIGHT monster from the Graveyard, or you can send 2 LIGHT monsters from your Hand or the field to the Graveyard to Special Summon 1 DARK monster from the Graveyard.

 

 

 

NOW FOR THE CRAPPIEST POEM EVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

Yin-FiRaven

 

There on THE hill is a GIRL

A GIRL eluding Her vexing life

As the sun rises; Darkness engulfs THE hill

And THE Darkness engulfs the GIRL

 

Her WISHES . . . Her HOPES . . . Her DREAMS . . .

All composed of THE Darkness

All TARGETING the sun Light

Her Darkness STRIVING to become Light

 

 

SHE is there dwelling on . . . WEEPING,

An endearing, abysmal Letter at Her knee

Shivering in Her camisole, SHE reads it again

THE Paper illustrates Her Cursed Blessing

 

A GIRL Light at heart; Dark in mind

This GIRL leaves THE hill; on the Road

As THE Darkness creeps closer; Light engulfs the Road

And The Light engulfs the GIRL

As Her Darkness becomes her GUIDING Light

 

Now you must hate me for posting such an awful poem

EDIT: I do not own the artwork for this card. I found it on one of the threads where this picture, along with others, was posted and taken from deviantart. As far as I know, I'm free to use this art.

 

[align=center]--The Serpents in the Shadows--

When the whistle sounded

Each man shipped off for war

One by one they set out

Until there were no more

 

The crowded naval city

Slowly became a town

And slowly and consistently

Death chipped at its crown

 

The sailors in their uniforms

Were the only force they'd grown

They'd sail over the horizon

But never sail home

 

The militia's might was tiring

And couldn't overtake

The might of that dreaded killer

The Airborne Shadow Snake[/align]

Sea-Serpent / DARK / Level 8 / ATK 1800 / DEF 0

 

When your opponent Normal Summons a monster, place 1 counter (max. 1) onto this card. Remove 1 counter from this card when this monster declares an attack. This card is unaffected by your opponent's card effects while no counter exists on it and cannot be destroyed as a result of battle while 1 counter exists on it. When this card is attacked, destroy the attacking monster at the end of the Damage Step and increase this monster's ATK by 300.

Sorry for the triple post, but I really want more people to join this, I probably won't be online very much for the next few days, starting this afternoon. I have to go get my friend a birthday present (it's Bioshock, don't tell him, lol) Then hang with one of my other friends and spend the night, then in the morning on Saturday, me and my friend that I spent the night with will go down to the Birthday Boy's party, and have an enormous amount of fun. Oh, and Rachel isn't coming with us, she didn't want to, and I'm getting off topic now....

 

So, anyway...Bump of the morning.
