Forum creative space

I thought it might be nice to share our creativity.

Anything really, photography, art, writing etc etc.

Thanks to Steven for partly inspiring this thread.

Please include a visual description with any images to aid those of us with sight impairment.

Thank you.

I'll start:

  • Guess I'll share a poem I wrote. Don't mind the dark mood of it. Just a Lovecraft fan.

    The Mare

    Once upon a moonlit night
    Where wonders turn to dreams
    My tired mind succumbs to sleep
    And splits upon the seams

    I venture into foreign worlds
    A fresco painted by a fraud
    A plagiarist reading from a book
    Written by a drunken sod

    I dare not look behind me
    For what follows seems too bleak
    A horror stalks behind me
    It makes my spirit meek

    It has a horrid speed
    It bounds on legs of three
    It pleads to let it feed
    It comes, it comes for me

    I ran upon the banks
    I ran upon the shore
    I ran upon the cliffs
    I fell
    I ran no more

  • Yeah, I liked that. 

    Word to the wise, Tripods, like three wheeled vehicles don't deal with lateral forces very well at all.

    Try zig zagging a bit more next time it chases you, maybe it'll fall over and make the horror become comedy?  

  • Thank you Oran G Utan. I thank that was really good.
