Can it be in French, 'cause all I'm thinking of is French >.> (*is going native*) If so then here:

On ne t'oublieras jamais,
Feu follet dans la nuit.

(We will never forget you
Will-o'-the-wisp in the night
-translation, yech)

My cat is Booboo.

Alright, I've decided to pick my pony (err...kitty?), and it's actually not one I've submitted on YWS.

The sweetest fruit
shields cyanide seeds.

This is mine:

"PALINDROME"


Blacken; in black.
Closed eyes, I close
this world words kiss.
Fallen in all, dim draws past
broken, invoked things missed.

I lay to rest in the gap between
wake and dreams -- see the
ache of great lingerings
and swinging day.


(I wanna name my kiddie kitty Maximus Decimus Meridius )

INSOMNIACS

In darkness we see
what is not
and it is there that we dream


(Kitty-Crestlefarber)

To fit my theme, how about this....

Falling
Never can take us
the madness does break us
Insanity
One by one, the monkeys fall
the jack does black
the queen does draw
the blade
the blade
it shines so bright
then we say good night, goodnight, goodnight

I have no cat, so i shall say bob is a pretty kitty.

to sum up the evening:
you opened enough doors and
your eyes dried out.

something i already knew: i am
too diluted to be
your saline.


~~

Mi gata bonita… Jasmine!

Mines fluffy.

Okay here's my poem,

Look at me from far,
I have moved on
But the nearer you get,
You will see the scars and the bruises
Left by your ruthless deeds

And, I'd like my kitty to be named Unicorn.

I made up my mind I am going submit this as my shot for the contest.

Hungry Cat

Here's mine:

Spoiler

Human (n);
1. Blood
2. Bone
3. 'Accidental' schadenfreude
hiding killer instinct

I don't really like kitties, so can I have a ducky instead? I will name it Sarah.

My cat will be called Kat, and my story Cold

Are you dead? You should have announced the winners by now.

i just saw this now so this is what i wrote:
you told me he isn't your father
you told me that you are
yet why is he there when i need him and you are always far
please comment
