The Dark Ring is a poem about a prostitution ring and from the point of view of a ring leader or pimp who runs such a business.It also includes a “phrase” submitted instead of a word by one twitter follower and I decided to include it for fun. Thanks to the 13 submissions today (in blue) from the following twitter players:
@DaneBlogger (The more I get lost), @GeB0i (sodomy), @weirdopoet (turgid), @PottyMouthCon (seminal), @libertytax13660 (taxes), @filigreegirl (numismatic), @AttilaBS (necromancer), @Blazing_Minds (Gourmet), @omgzam (SEO), @Williamm49 (posthumous), @Jan_Geronimo (Shackle), @SurfCityJay (reward), @pauldsimpson (extortion)The Dark Ring
The more I get lost in prostitution
new deals found through simple SEO
a twisted necromancer of extortion
lost in turgid gourmet sodomy
that ends in a seminal release
shackle of a numismatic exchange
bitter reward as painful as taxes
yet they all pay and come back for more
shame and dishonor is my posthumous legacy
but for now I reap the rewards of wealth-Poem by Dragon Blogger

01 Mar 2010
Manufacturing is a poem that depicts a factory or machine shop late at night where the parts it creates are becoming obsolete. Inspired by the 12 random words (in blue) provided by the following twitter players today:
@GeB0i (equanimity), @Williamm49 (bibliographic), @dreamon51 (glittery), @KathrynVercillo (worthless), @malenko10 (nightshift), @KookiesKrumble (succulent), @blusol (fruition), @anahbird (panda), @filigreegirl (sigh), @stevejclark (scion), @Jemfyr (mousse), @AttilaBS (cantankerous)Manufacturing
Cantankerous nightshift worker
slopping up succulent dessert mousse
like a panda on bamboo rampageMachinery groans a sigh of equanimity
as glittery steel and iron toil away
a bibliographic scene of manufacturingOnce the epitome of fruition and wealth
construction now wheezes on nearly worthless parts
scion of technology having outgrown the parentA bell rings signaling the breaks end
the fatigued man returns to hard labor
wondering how long until he is antiquated-Poem by Dragon Blogger

your final destination-Poem by Dragon Blogger

25 Feb 2010
Imprisoned was written while finding a theme in the provided words. I saw insanity and started writing around that word and some sort of mental asylum or prison was the theme that formed the basis of this poem. Today included 14 random words (in blue) provided by the twelve twitter players (yes, one person submitted 3 words):
@coffeetablepoet (ravenous, insanity, presumptuous), @Jemfyr (bucket), @wchingya (diversity), @malenko10 (slaughterhouse), @KathrynVercillo (precious), @shemah (visitation), @Williamm49 (positive), @R_Arblaster (inflexible), @HarleyQuinnAA (Lesson), @RyanHanzel (igloo), @filigreegirl (vagary), @AttilaBS (non sequitur)Imprisoned
Inflexible slaughterhouse of pain
filled with presumptuous ravenous insanity
bucket diversity of non sequitur behavior
giant igloo of deplorable depravityPrecious logical rationality is blocked
vagary denies even a temporary visitation
no positive lesson to be garnered here, ever
lest you find this escape an eternal temptation-Poem by Dragon Blogger

enthral of what nature itself inspiredPassive bucolic servant creation
insurance for the future of the nationRepairing roads and buildings with ease
with robots just larger than some fleas-Poem by Dragon Blogger
