OctPoWriMo 2023: Facing Our Fears

Fear of Monsters: Use a traditional Halloween monster in a metaphor. For example, “The world is a vampire,” the great opening line of The Smashing Pumpkins song “Bullet With Butterfly Wings.” Open your poem with your metaphor and develop it throughout your poem.

Anyone up to the challenge of trying The ‘Lewis Carroll’ Square Poem ? It’s a bit of a monster poetry form.

Today’s image prompt is “Design Committee” by Aaron Jasinski. Is this an actual monster or a delusion? Are those all its hands, or the horror of others manipulating its structure?

Today’s prompt “Monster” can be any kind of monster. You may think of the classic movie monsters, or the evil that lurks in humans turning us into monsters. So many fun possibilities.

Please link to your creations in the comments. I can’t wait to see what you come up with.
