I don't know about the lot of you, but I LOVE poetry! So I thought I'd start a little skirmish here over poetry!
Rules are simple:
#1 Any style is allowed
#2 Must be at least 15 words long
#3 Must be original
#4 Must be about stated subject
I hope to keep this a running competition. Every week I'll take applicants, just post your poem here, and the next week will be voting! Applicants can vote. After all votes are in, I will announce the winner and award 100 Fables to said winner, as well as post a new subject to write on! You can see past winners here.
This competition's theme will be:
Snow
Good luck to all!

Life
A cruel and twisted torment,
A honey-soaked bliss,
It never lies dormant,
And its plots carry twists.
To her I love and I hate,
I've never been decided,
For she provides and she takes,
On rare occasion, I find myself delighted.
On one hand she's quick,
Yet she drags on so long,
Like swimming through a brick,
Or singing a love song.
I just know that, in the end,
I'll look back and sigh,
Because I'll realize my friend,
I was born to die.

The story of my life(My First Shot at Poetry!)
Born in a land of love and bliss,
living 'rich' among the poor,
Wake up and wait for my morning kiss,
but pleasure seems to disappear,
'cause I see fellow citizens fight,
and that brings me down to tears,
Nothing ever seems to go allright,
and I live in fear
Lived 16 years in my land among a 100 million men,
where a majority can't get their bread, and sleep in the sand,
But the positives are too long to list and write off of my pen,
Always wipes the tears off your face, So I love this land,
Funny thing this life is, can leave you very confused,
I was pushed out of my mother's womb,
And the world really left me amused,
In a century or so, I'm pushed into my own tomb

In some countries the trains
chugg into the station
whether it hails or rains
and in others you'll shove
and tear through throngs
just to get in the car.
I prefer my magic carpet.

It
Starts
Slowly
But
Before
Long it
Begins to
Chug down
The Line
Unabated
Path defined
Gaining speed
And Momentum
Charging Forward
An unstoppable force
A marvel of technology
Locked into its course
Like a Marathon runner
Its on its way, to a destination
To be docked with the next day.
A station to drop its precious load
And gather another for more profits down the road
Though its been outdone in speed and agility, its might is still its capability.
Like a great career, or a budding government, a new relationship, or a hallowed covenant,
The train gains power as it goes, flexing and waxing as it grows, and as time goes on, everyone knows,
Locomotives still steal all the shows. Never will they be outdated, though they've been evolved and technologically updated.
They've captured the fascination of generations, filling the imaginations of millions with miniature landscapes complete with citizens.
When one sees our civilizations as a giant mind, connected by highways and byways in kind, we open our eyes to find, the core of our thoughts are defined, by the locomotive as it charges down the line.

Just for a little kick, I'll post one of my own poems!
Of times past, we write these tales
of heros and villans we remember
with these stories
these writings
we remember forever
these ones who write our histories
these ones who are of Legend
I picked a random subject, but rememebr, this week is 'Fate'

The ties that bind us pull us back
Everything of the present is ready to attack
But the future is a golden bird
Beckoning us, the call we heard
In what is to come we do elate
And this little bird, its name is Fate.

Okay, certainly not one of my best, as my muse is well and truly out-of-it right now. But I thought I'd give it a whirl anyway, all in the name of fun  . I don't think this really needs a warning, but I'll give one just in case. Ever so slightly dark and sad, but I don't think it's anything major.
Fate's Choice
Drowning his sorrows, in a back-alley bar,
The man, he sups his last, and bids the barkeep goodnight,
Stumbles out the door, into the cold,
And makes for his car, in the dim streetlight,
Lamenting all the while, the loss of his Maria, sweet Maria.
Taking his keys from his pocket, as he leans against the car,
He misses the lock, misses...misses...misses...
Eventually managing the task of unlocking the door,
All the while remembering the sweet kisses,
Of his Maria, beautiful Maria.
"Are you sure you should be doing that?"
A womans voice breaks through the night.
The man he turns, and sees the figure,
Deep in the shadows, near out of sight.
"What business is it of yours", he replies with scorn,
And turns back to unlocking the door.
"Maybe before you make your choice," the woman says,
"You'd like to know what fate has in store?"
Curiousity itching, he turns back towards her,
And finds that she has stepped into the streetlight's dim glow,
Though he's still unable to see her face,
For she is covered, in a hooded cloak, from head to toe.
"Who are you?" the man says warily, to which she replies
"I have been sent to give you a chance before it's too late,
For if you get into that car tonight, my good sir,
You will be making a great mistake. And my name is Fate."
"You have been blessed with an offer, sir,
To discover what fate has in store for you,
To know the outcome of each of your choices,
Before you decide which of them to do."
He ponders a moment, trying to decide,
If he really cares what the outcome might be,
But curiousity overcomes him, and he
Softly replies, "I wish to see."
She takes his hands, and in an instant,
The world around him is gone, then a new scene appears,
Here lights flash and sirens blare,
The piercing sound ringing in his ears.
The tattered shell of what once was a car,
Lies in the middle of a road, and nearby he can see,
A body, speadeagled, in the shadown of the car
"Oh my god!" he gasps, "It is me!"
"Yes," the woman replies, "It is you.
If you choose to drive home tonight
You will die this terrible death,
Do you think to choose this path is right?"
'But I will be with Maria,' he thinks to himself, 'my lovely Maria.'
"But think on this," the woman continues,"If you die,
The effect it will have on those you leave behind.
Your son and your daughter will be all alone,
And the world, to them, will not be kind."
She passes a hand in front of her,
And it seemed as if a home movie played before his eyes,
One showing the horrors his children would face,
At the point of his demise.
In the movie, his kids were passed,
From foster home to foster home, throughout their childhood years,
The later ones spattered with drink and drugs,
And other such devestating things, bringing him to tears.
"So you have seen," the woman said,
The repercussions of one of the choices you face,
If you decide against it, all will be well,
And our children's world will be a better place.
And with that, she pulled back her hood,
And the man exclaimed with a gasp, "Maria! It's you!"
She smiled, and replied "Yes, my love, it is I,
And I have a request and a plea to put to you."
"Please don't get yourself killed this night,
Stop this grieving, for I am happy and free,
Please get yourself home to our kids, my dear,
For they need you far more than me.
And with that she was gone, and he was back,
Stood by the car, keys in hand, and alone.
"Very well, my darling," he whispered to the night.
And he hailed a taxi to take him home.
"I'll take care of them Maria, my love, my one, Maria.

Love it Tika! You struggled with the rhyme and meter a bit (but so do I usually) but the story concept was pretty cool and nicely delivered overall.

Thanks TB! I know the rhyme and rhythm of the poem didn't flow consistantly throughout, but like I said, my muse is really off at the moment. I'm surprised I managed to even achieve what I have done . But I think it's good to try and push ones way through the mental blockages. Especially when done in such a 'no pressure' way, as, though this is a competition, it's also just for fun.

There was a great tiger from Kentucky,
Who caught a zookeeper, how unlucky.
"I'm not happy in here."
"I'm sorry to hear."
"Look at this place, its so mucky."

My 
Tiger
Lost in stripes, found in eyes
Weak yesteday, tomorrow we strive
Today is yellow between two blacks
Filling of the cracks in the mirage of the cat
Some stand right, strong and proud
Some fall down, and still too loud
Among the echoes, the silence is my prey
Even though I wander, still I never stray
Only water can show my true reflection
Nature hides my shape from any close inspection
Walking on two feet, different, you can see
But what you cannot see, you're quite like me...

Lovers
Tiger fights Dragon
in the dead of the night
He pounces, she thrashes
They grapple in tight
They dig in their claws
He jabs with his teeth
She rolls him across
and breathes in deep
Upwards he thrusts
To send her higher
Her wings she trusts
As she screams her fire
She clamps on with talons
Lifts him into the sky
He relies on his talents
To hang on as they fly
She screams in defiance
As he lets loose a roar
Her spine aligns in compliance
As he gouges her more
He flips her around
and chomps on her chest
she falls to the ground
at his violent behest
Wildly he scratches
and digs in his claws
Across his back she matches
Red blood she draws
She furiously screams
Her flame billows out
Her glowing eyes beam
In this final bout
He roars in his rage
His blood goes to boil
released from his cage
The war becomes toil
And in one last gasp
She claws him in tight
He slays her at last
with a final bite
His jaws opens heart
His tongue tastes her blood
They finally part
And lay in the mud
For the rest of the night
Resting under her wing
Recalling the fight
It makes his soul sing.
And she in her heavenly place
deep within
delights in herself as she tastes
the real win.

Thanks for keeping me in your thoughts, Thunder-B. I'm afraid I had forgotten about IF for a while, maybe a particular scent, taste, or mood brought me back, who knows.
And yes, it's a mixed compliment, because it evoked an emotion (fright) from me, which not every poem can do. On the one hand, your poem was vivid and full of action, and on the other hand, it was so violent! I get the feeling that at the same time all of this violence is going on, they might be making love (the whole dynamic of he/she). So that is what scares me. But I know you meant well, and that it isn't indicative of anything you would do personally.

The violence was allegorical entirely. Certainly not to be taken so literally. It is a good thing, though, that it came across so powerful as you say. For it was meant to convey a point in its comparison between passion and violence. Both being the most absorbing feelings one might experience. I was hoping that by the end, it becomes clear that the poem was not at all about a 'battle' except to say that love is one... of a sort.

| Make it something abstract rather than concrete. As in, Visions, rather than Cars. Gives the contestants more liberty.

My muse is on today it would seem (if i do say so myself)
Inner Warfare
Wars are waged
With artillery and guns
But there are sharper swords
That slaughter our sons
We all have the personal
Demons we fight
The decisions we make
About wrong and right
Pressure is evident
As you climb to the peaks
If we do not give in
We are classified as freaks
Everything seems fine
But it’s all a disguise
You can see the truth
If only you look into her eyes
Ends come over the counter
These days
There are so many chances
Let me be strong, he prays
Desperate to be a victor
Farther into the war a person delves
But how can we win
If we are battling ourselves?
The exterior does not
Always reveal what is within
So suddenly it seems
It is the end-Fin
Some of the worst wars
Are the ones that we hide
The battles we fight
On the inside

The Hell Where Youth and Laughter Go
All shall see them, and some may know,
But few will notice, where they go.
Their soulless faces, and forgotten eyes,
Forever stand, in one final guise.
And what have you, to say of this,
You who lie, and live in bliss?
Do you, with laughter, earn your wage,
Are you an actor, upon a stage.
I knew one once, both shy and bright,
Who had never even, been in a fight.
He wanted no more, than for you to see,
Why he fights, and why they flee.
But now he's gone, away to die,
To foreign lands, and a foreign sky.
Ever hungry, and full of dread,
Soon your hero, will be dead.
So as his brothers pass by, in sullen gloom,
Marching onward, to imminent doom,
And while you laugh, and sing, and play,
Remember this boy, remember this day.

Sanctum (Sank him)
Gone bad,
gone mad
The phone rings... "bring...bring"
Answering while crying.
Scream into the night,
into the abyss of madness... throat tight,
he fell off these planet's walls,
into the war calls.
Walk, run, jog from the barracks,
the people always throwing a ruckas,
with the guns poised for the army camen,
at the gates of the beaten.
Bated breath at the gate,
Breath in the air...stand close to your mate.
The force storms through the climatic ruin
into the dark abyss of death and brooding,
worrying about the last of the friends they'd see,
Please stand by me.
Throat tight,
Ended up beside right,
He fell onto the floor,
burried into the core...

Wow... tough crowd throwing in their bids this time around. BBS, nicely done! But yeah, some seriously good stuff all around.
But I'll throw one in anyhow... might help me to loosen up for a chapter writing
The Face of Modern War
Profit margins crank the gears of war,
People suffer and die, but what for?
Blood and oil on a foreign shore,
Feeding a society hungry for more.
Consume and pillage and rape and take,
Addict us all to the things we make,
Suck dry the wells and drain the lake,
And leave nothing untapped in our ravenous wake.
Feed the rich and make them strong,
Because might makes right and the rest of us wrong,
We've lost our voice now it won't be long,
Before the lords we approved of silence our song.
The war's on them you see,
They assaulted the land of the free,
They've attacked our dignity,
And we fall victim to the lies we weave.
So with thunderous applause and adoration,
We send our children to die in abandon,
And mothers cry when they hear of the wanton
Destruction we've brought to entire nations.
But we can't give up the fight,
We can't let terrorists rule the night,
They sneak around beneath our sight,
So our freedoms we abandon to the nation's might.
This won't end in victory, I'm afraid,
All we'll gain is another police raid,
Where the slightest of laws have been disobeyed,
A horrific future we have made.
So now we spiral to the end,
A brave new world for us both my friend,
Where nobody's voice is heard on the wind,
And we dream of what we can never have again.
But support your troops and back our cause,
While bailouts won't avoid homes lost,
So many out of work because
We need more troops to fuel our cars.

Hmmm....I feel an overwhelming sense of depression over the fact that none of these poems.....Well, I'll throw in my own example to explain. (This one is not for the competition)
Patriot
Suit up, ready for the fight
my love behind me
my goal before me
I go forward towards the enemy
my weapon in hand
my heart set firm
I will defend the ones I love
my only home
my love of freedom
With gun, or sword, or explosive fire
my faith wil be strong
my hand will remain firm
Family calls, tellng me they belive in me
my place in this war
my resolve to do right
I fight this war, so you don't have to
my head held high
my feet stand firm
You spit on me, although I'd give
my life for you
my joy for you
I am a soldier, scared by horrors so you may be innocent
my soul torn and broken
my tears dried up from over use
On my honor, and my life, I will go on
my love left alone
my family left crying
Can you ever understand why I do what I do
my loyalty to you
my love for our freedoms
Or will you always shun me, and leave me alone
my gun my salvation
my comrades my home
Will you ever understand how I hate this war, but know it's right
my gift to you
my burden to bare
Will you ever understand, that I am a Patriot
+++++
I don't know. I know very few share my oppinions on the matter, but I wish people would at least show the soldiers a little faith in that, they're doing, what they believe is right, and should not be hated for this.*Bows*

If you look in my old poem thread, I have said they do right, "Remember the war is our sin and crossing..." its called the Maypoles... or March...
In my poem I didn't say army men were bad! I wrote a poem starting with someone choking, or atleast feeling worse, the memories of the war that is to come, and so the death has befallen the one...

You must have misunderstood my poem then. And just so you know, I am in the Marine Corps, although I don't do too much fighting in my job.

I wasn't trying to say that no one shared my view, but all in all, all the poems seem more depressing than insperational, which is what I see in mine. *Grin* It's just a reoccuring theme that I see all to often. Gets me a little catty. *Bows* Sorry if I offended. They all just seem so against war, when I see it as a unfortunate necessity. Which doesn't mean it needs to focus on all the horrible and sad parts of being a soldier. Y'know?

Not offended. But I'd like to point out that I don't attack the soldier in my poem, just the policies behind the wars we wage. I felt quite patriotic before I became a soldier myself. There, I learned to much to remain patriotic. I once felt we were a 'good' nation. Now I know better.

What truly saddens me is when poetry is injected with ideology and is used to justify political aims.  It ceases to be as brilliant and universal as it should be.

Ah... well... for that I apologize. But then, writing poetry is about writing what is in the heart, no? Unfortunately, when considering 'war', what is in my heart is quite bitter... and rather political.
But I see your point.

No comment...
Poetry is from the heart, but this one I just made up... so don't feel sad about it. Plus if you feel so strongly about what my poem is all about, then I might as well write only on paper and leave it in my room. Plus if someone feel strong about poetry. I guess I can learn to be more than depressing....

I thought BBS's poem was most intriguing. There's more than meets the eye.

I felt all the entries were fantastic this time and it was a very hard choice between quite a few of them. I agree... BBS's was superb. But HEH got my vote - just impacted me a bit more than the rest was all.

Biz Bit: This was a wee bit tricky for me. Until I got the idea that you can't have the light without the dark. And the Dark is my specialty. Enjoy!
Your Light
You and I coexist as well,
As a twisted yin and yang.
I reside in the dark because
It's a safer place to stay.
Yet you try to bring in your light,
And shine my safety away.
You come and search all the dark depths
But I hide to your dismay.
You promise that you will save me
Because I refuse to pray.
You bring your light and walk about,
Try to purify my soul.
You try to lure me from my dark
And promise you'll make me whole.
But you won't pull me from the black,
I'll just stay and watch you stroll
As you try to lure me with talks
Of pure happiness and gold.
But with your promise comes a price,
And I will not pay your toll.
You walk straight out of my domain,
Defeated and all alone.
Where you will forever reside
Until you're placed under stone.
You'll stare into my precious dark
As you mumble and you moan.
You say that you really don't care,
I know that you envy my throne,
Because you know that my darkness
Came from the first light you shone

Yep, classic Bizzy at his best! Loved it!
hmm... Light... should be an inspiring subject for me. I'll have to ponder it for a bit before just posting whatever drivel comes to mind first.

Lean verses
Light are the scrolls
Of ancient wisdom;
Lithe the emotion
Surged from a caress;
Limber the sunrise
That dilutes the darkness.
Weightless is the motion
Of memories caught adrift,
Frothing in the twilight
Like foam upon a sea.
Slender are the stems
Of fluorescent ideation;
Sprightly the shadow
Of an unspoken dream;
Slight the white sinew
Which rolls clouds to meet.
Life at its finest
Is captured only
In lean verses.

ooooo... very profound D! I applaud you! I had been wondering if I should interpret 'light' as opposed to 'heavy'... now I'm going to have to go about this from a different approach as you already played the less likely interp card!

A New (New) World Order?
To those of you who deem it right
To bear the weight of the world
On your aching shoulders tonight
I have a new take on your plight
That goes against all wise word,
Of advice heard, a new insight
And though some say it isn't right
I raise my flag up unfurled,
To be heard by all, within sight
For if we all combine our might
The many weights of the world
Would be perceived as something light
Author note:
8,
7,
8.
playing with theory - some trouble with rythme though...

Nice job, TB. Does that syllable structure correspond with a certain kind of poem (e.g. sonnet, limerick, etc), or did you choose it?

Not intentionally, just playing with some numeric theory there, trying to add a new layer of art to the whole. 8/7/8 is a bit odd to read but it balances symmetry and asymmetry in a rather trippy manner when 4 stanzas are considered. See what I mean?

Yes, I see. I'm actually not as familiar with english poetry as with spanish poetry, but in spanish a poem with meter of 8 syllables is known as a Romance. In spanish as in english, there are a certain number of syllables that conform better to the language.
In spanish, 8 syllables works, as do 11 and 14. In english, 10 syllables is a good fit for a sonnet (at least this is the pattern Shakespeare used).
This might actually be worth investigating further.

Agreed - on principle I couldn't vote AGAINST myself but I could not attempt to get in the way of such a deserved win as well! You earned this one Bizzy!

My Craft
My eyes stare straight ahead
My thoughts move at the speed of light
Sweat rolls from my brow
I have to make sure that I do this right
I slip up so I go back, start again
Perfection is the only thing that can stand
Can not tolerate impurity
It must be right, true, great, never be bland
I move ahead, rolling like a tank
Mowing down everything that gets in my way
Here we go, I know I can do this
Yes, success is in the air, I shall seize it today
No, another mistake, back to the start
I'm getting nowhere like a dog after his tail
A devil shows upon my shoulder
He whispers to me that I'm destined to fail
Starting again, I know this is it
This time there will be no slowing me down
I race through, my mind focused
My labored, determined breathing my only sound
An hour later I finish and lean back
And banish the inner demon who had laughed
I rise up, and stroll from my keys
relaxing after completing another chapter of my craft

I really like that now that I've had a chance to properly give it a read, Bizzy... That's gonna be a tough act to follow being as you pinpointed something most of us here can so strongly relate to. So I'm not going to try. Instead, I'm going the first way I took the subject matter...
End of the Mundane
What can bring a sense of wonder,
To a life that's dull and bland?
What can tear the mundane asunder,
Fulfill our dreams across the land?
A pinch of this,
and a dab of that,
Ethereal mist,
and an eye of bat.
I'd trade away the normal life,
Let go of all reliable things,
Even though it might bring strife,
To cast a spell that gives me wings.
A pinch of this,
and a dab of that,
Boil root twists,
and a tail of rat.
To each the law would be our own,
With power to control our fate,
We'd only reap what we have sown,
Choose thee love or choose thee hate.
A pinch of this,
and a dab of that,
A dragon's fist,
the soul of a gnat.
Those who want for stable path,
Will rue the day I rise to power,
For ours would be the might of the Craft
In ignorance's final hour.

| I tried this a while back, but nothing hit me with toy. I'll continue to think about it though, and maybe inspiration will come.

~Virgin Snow~
Looking out at the vastness of white
Snow had fallen throughout the night
Footprints in the virgin snow
From whom they come I do not know
Winter it has come at last
Can’t even see one blade of grass
Ice it forms on the lake
But not thick enough to take ones weight
Soon the kids will be here
Sledes out and snow ball spheres
Making angels in the snow
And having fun wherever they go
The day goes and darkness comes
Kids gone home to there mums
The snow falls throughout the night
Erasing all that days snow fights
A clean sheet in the morning light
Ready for that days snow fight
Not my usual fortay but what the hell? I gave it a shot~

Snow
Peaceful slumber
Chilling straight through the marrow
dreams of brighter days
Dreams of brighter days
blanketed in soft darkness,
yet sun glows through it.

January's Musings
The cold and weary
seem so dreary
when winter's touch has come.
The flaking snow,
and winds that blow,
announce it like a drum.
But feel not weathered,
or somehow bettered,
as days are short and gray.
Enjoy the sight
of ice frozen night,
forever she won't stay.
