Today is my 200th Random Twitter Poem, and the 18 random words (in blue) inspired me to write a modern day mythical tale. Thanks to the followers below who participated today:
@cheth (zenith), @anefallarme (patience), @Jemfyr (oracle), @RemBeatZ (lamprophony), @TrinaMb (duchess), @santasdevil (flight), @GinosEastDfld (lunch), @CynLuscious (audacious), @LStephenCleary (malaprop), @rockalong (revile), @concisionflux (anniversary), @RobinJP (landmark), @nottern (twitter), @IntegralChaotic (equilibrium), @blusol (judicious), @elizasea (exaltation), @AnnEvanston (impossibilities), @summerbreeze80 (conundrum)

History of the Statues

What was to be a landmark anniversary
celebrating a judicious wedding this day
interrupted at its zenith unexpectedly
by a woman dressed in the robes of an oracle

An audacious woman, patience depleted
and like a spoiled royal duchess
deprived of her noon lunch
started spewing malaprop and revile

Her lamprophony echoed across the hall
suddenly impossibilities started occurring
flashes and fire exploded from her fingertips
crowds took flight as equilibrium went spinning

The mystical exaltation subsequently ended
with the witch casting one final spell
the celebrating couple petrified in plain sight
their love encased in eternal stone

The chaos and confusion creating a twitter storm
fact and fiction blurred when reaching the world
now people pay visit each and every day and listen
to the history and conundrum of the royal lover statues

What do you think of my 200th Twitter Poem, leave me some feedback. Honestly, myself I read the poem back to myself several times and don’t think its one of my better ones, but my wife liked it.

Rescue From The Witch

Feel the sun burn the night
A startled bird fixed in flight
Angry goblins within the woods
Hidden hunters in dark grey hoods

A girl is lost in a witches cave
Sentenced to be a broken slave
Hunters seek to restore her life
One still seeks her as his wife

But the goblin queen is well prepared
A wealth of traps, the hunters snared
A knife flashes in the dark
The hollow cries of a lark

One sole hunter cuts free
Faced with death, he does not flee
The hag descends and her fury dreaded
The hunter slashes, the witch beheaded

The young girl found, a shining pearl
He picks her up and spins a whirl
A thousand hugs and kisses found
As he carries her away without a sound

08 May 2009

Today’s random twitter poem is one of my common themes about being careful what you wish for, it is the story of a woman seeking a witch to brew her a potion to make your prettier, younger or healthier, only to find that it was a trick in the end. Thanks to the following twitter followers for the 12 random words today (in blue):

@coffeetablepoet (amazing), @DavidMercury (pleasure), @Rinari (dulcet), @Catherine1016 (disaster), @santasdevil (Spiderweb), @numbnuggets (funk), @DVDsnapshot (stew), @anefallarme (patience), @shemah (enterprise), @MeghnaK (fabulous), @ashchuan (polygamy), @Zorlone (veneer)

The Witches Brew

In a small hovel, a witches brew
Thick and chunky, though not a stew

Unusual dulcet aroma stimulates
Wondering what amazing creation awaits?

Gnarled old woman clothed like a monk
Stirs the mixture solemnly, as if in a funk

A witch, with no risk of marriage or polygamy
As she is the type who is quite unfriendly

Dirt and grime are to be found everywhere
Even a spiderweb covering a worn veneer chair

Hoping the potion shall bring you pleasure
The effects beyond anything you can measure

Patience now is surely required
Something not so easily acquired

The fabulous brew brought slowly to a simmer
Would you be young again, or maybe just slimmer

Profitable enterprise this witch could run
Just selling magical potions by the ton

Your portion is served and you drink in a hurry
At first nothing, then your vision becomes blurry

Disaster happens as your body starts to shake
Horribly transforming into a small coiled snake
