The Moon High Dark

Another #TwistedNurseryRhyme, this time mimicking "Lavender's blue, dilly dilly"

Great Odin’s doom, 

bloody bloody, 

hast run amok

Angrboda’s grief, 

bloody bloody, 

looms Ragnarök

The fate of gods, 

bloody bloody, 

low, birthed the curse

A curse on men, 

bloody bloody, 

to no fate worse

Autumn moon bright, 

bloody bloody, 

wolfsbane in bloom

In th’moon high dark, 

bloody bloody, 

pure hearts swoon

Neath th’wolf willow, 

bloody bloody, 

find Finrir loosed

In th’hearts of men, 

bloody bloody, 

fanged lust transmutes

Men become beasts, 

bloody bloody, 

horror and plague

Become demons, 

bloody bloody, 

unto the grave

The curse will own, 

bloody bloody, 

your bloodied heart

In feral smiles of, 

bloody bloody, 

the moon high dark

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Very wicked and ominous. A very cool poem

[MomzillaNC]

Thanks so much!

Oh yes you are a morbid soul indeed I think I may have met my match in Halloween love here

[MomzillaNC]

LOL -- I'm really not a morbid person. Honestly, I'm pretty positive most of the time. I just like that Halloween feeling every year! Thanks.

this should be read to trick or treaters before they go out on Halloween Night...would add to the excitement...or not...they may be too scared to go out...
bloody fun here.

Awwww… couldn't you make an exception for this one? I'm hoping to get enough participation to curate the entries into an anthology for publication. Contestants may enter up to five submissions -- and all the submissions will be curated for the anthology.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

sorry, just don't do them...

[MomzillaNC]

[sigh] Okay. 😎
