Take Me to the Dark Side

Yes, I'm feeling dark and weird this Halloween season. Too much personal stuff going on. Let your writes take me further into the dark side. Imagery and metaphors will take you far in this one! Use one of the pictures as your prompt and don't forget to credit the artist in your AN.

NO prewrites allowed. Multiple entries ARE allowed! HM's will be added as I fall in love with your penned beauties.

This is the first time I've tried to enter multiple pictures in a contest. I hope it works! And so here we go:

Any type of writing is welcome here! Forms, erotica, you name it.....

Rules:

1. NO WRITING IN ALL CAPS.
2. No WrItInG lIkE tHiS oR i WiLl KiCk U.
3. Be kind and courteous to other poets and to me.
4. Try to respond to at least one other person's poem. It's common courtesy.
