Ok, time to be picky!

My last contest had an awesome turn out.

But now, I 'm gonna be a little pickier. I'm keeping it short, sweet and simple, because I almost had 100 poems to judge last time.

Ok, here are you're options:
1. Give me dark. I'm having a tough time and this stuff usually helps me through it.
2. Nature, it's all around us and it can inspire.
3. Anything with vampires, werewolves, ect.
4. Angels and demons. I love that stuff.

Rules:
1. I didn't accept erotica last time, but I'll except it this time.
2. No 1337. I can't read it.
3. No sticky caps
4. No crappy rhyming poems. If you can rhyme and it sounds good, then go for it.
5. I'm allowing prewrites.

Alright, give it to me!
