  Sorry- I tend to say 'a bit' quite often. It's something I'm working on, but alas, such things take time. Anyhoo, thanks!

  I fought I would contribute a more serious poem as opposed to the other one I posted here, it went a bit dark so you have been warned.

  The rising full moon a portent of my doom

  It's light awakening the beast within

  Restless to be released to the hunt

  Its hunger increasing with the moon's rise

  Who will it be this time who meets their demise

   

  Strengthened by the moon's light the beast began to emerge

  My body twisting and contorting as it fought to break free of its cage

   The beast breaking  through my skin as it escaped

  Free at last the beast howled out its victory

  Free to hunt with me caged inside in misery

   

  The best smelled prey beginning the hunt

  It stalked its prey from the shadows waiting to strike

  Jumping from the shadows when it could wait not longer

  The beast saw only its dinner

  From my cage inside I saw my sister

   

  With the moon's retreating light the beast began to weaken

  Its body twisting and contorting as it fought to remain free

  My body returning to me as it was forced back to its cage

  Chained to my knowledge the beast

  I was not free but bound forever in horror

  This is actually really saddening, but I like it a lot. Good job.

  I tend to be grumpy about grammar 'a bit' too - that's just one of my pet peeves

  Thanks! I've made it a proper blog post after the reaction it's gotten here- 'Bloodmoon Rising', under my Memoirs of Mundus collection. I'd appreciate any comments you have on the poem, of course-here or on the post. Thanks again!
