Janet Reid, aka The Query Shark is hosting a book-stack contest. An idea she admittedly stole from Tahereh Mafi, author of the up and coming "Shatter Me" (which has been in my TBR on goodreads for months).
Write a poem using books you have (any) and post a pic. Deadline is tomorrow (Sunday 9/18), noon (additional instructions on Janet's blog). I tried posting this earlier today but blog was being uncooperative about posting my picture in it's correct form *smacks blog* bad blog!
Below is my entry. Best of luck if you enter!
“The Blood of Angels”
Once THE LUCKY
ONE.
Now BANISHED
FOREVER,
BEYOND EXILE.
No longer a HOST
MATCHED
In an ANGELS
GAME
Of BEAUTIFUL
CREATURES
Living in a CITY
OF GLASS.
One drop of ELIXIR
And I am cast WITH
A VENGEANCE
From the TWILIGHT
Of my SPHERE.
My HALO
CATCHING FIRE
As I tear ACROSS
THE UNIVERSE.
Now DARK VISIONS
Of WILDEFIRE
LINGER
And ECLIPSE
The CRESCENDO
Of the BREAKING
DAWN.
I SHIVER
Under the HUSH-HUSH
Of the NEW MOON
as it casts its glow on a
CITY OF
BONES;
A DAY BY DAY ARMAGEDDON
From the BLOOD
OF ANGELS.
I like it and I like the blog.

Found you through Brenda Drake's blogfest, but was unable to leave a comment for your excerpt. I don't know why. ??? (And now I have Daydream Believer, the song, stuck in my head.) :0) Christy
I also tried to leave a comment for your excerpt for the contest, but couldn't. Hmmm? Your excerpt is great btw! :D
ReplyDeletesorry ladies ~ I guess when you start a new page the default setting is to not allow comments ~ I changed that so you should be able to leave comments now.
ReplyDeleteBrenda Thnx~ I just changed my first 250 ~ Now you have me wondering if I should go back??? EEK!
