The picture above is called Forgotten Fairytales by zemotion on deviantArt. She represents Rapunzel. Please credit artist if you use this pic.
For this contest, I want fairytales. But I want them twisted, tasting like pollution, like cancer, yet beautiful the way nicotine lungs are beautiful.
I want to be able to recognize the fairytale that inspired you.
I want emotion. Expression.
- if entering a PW, it must pertain.
- DP and prose are allowed.
- Freeverse preferred over rhyme, but rhyme is greatly appreciated if tasteful.
- other than that, be creative. Be original, please.
- one entry per person. Add a comment if you MUST add another poem, and I'll consider it.
- I may not comment. I'm busy and lazy, but I will try. Just because I didn't comment on yours doesn't mean I don't like it, though.
- will add HM's if I get enough entries, and good entries.
Knock yourselves out.
