Give Me Rhyme or Give Me Death 4

Greetings everyone.

Thank you for checking out my contest, feel free to enter if you'd like and just have fun with it.

In the first contest I accepted any rhyming poetry, in the second it was only fresh writes, and the third was title prompts.

This time around I want you to give me rhyme AND give me death.
That means dark poetry only. It doesn't have to be about death, but anything in on the darker side.

To help spark your dark muse, you must select one of the eight pictures below.

Here are the rules:


- Rhyme only. (Any rhyming style is fine)
- No prewrites.
- Must be dark, or at least relating to your picture.
- One entry per person.
- You can reserve if you want to.
- Must use one of the eight images above as a prompt. (Please list it's source URL in your AN.)
- Shouldn't even have to say this, but no sticky caps, it's just annoying...
- I'm looking for actual poems too, not just a page with words that rhyme.

Thanks for checking out my contest. Enter if you want to, and try to have fun with it.

Poems may wonder as you ponder.

    Oh dude!! That fourth picture I have been looking for for months. I had it once and my HD went out and I lost all my images. I dug that one though. I'll see what I can do with it again. I wrote for it once long ago.
