For Tourmaline .’s Halloween Challenge, creature, I experimented with an effect I noticed when I started to play with bokeh in the mirror: it’s possible to take a photo of a filter both right side up and upside down. These are my first experiments with the effect, but I got some fun results.

Today’s prompt, “Speaking and Listening,” reminded me of all of my children’s story records my parents brought me a couple weeks ago. I think I’ll spend some time with them as I write today. The headless rider has some funny lines.

The 2018 prompt was “Inside Out.” Listening to my old story records brought out my inner child.
For Today’s Poetics challenge at dVerse Poets Pub, Lisa requested Halloween themed poems about irritating human attributes. That seems to fit well with today’s creatures. I don’t think I’ve tried the Duodora form before.

Headless
Human creature
I’ve never come down so
far with you before
and heard. Don’t forget
those roars in the night!
Ibbity-Bibbity-Zibbity-Zab
Every hypocritical word a trap
Human creature
where monsters did last rise
you have to believe
in them to see them
Pull off its disguise!
Ibbity-Bibbity-Zibbity-Zab
This is a headless monster you can’t nab!
Every hypocritical word a trap .. hibbity bibbity zippity zap . A nice rhyme.

A perfect matching of subject, image and form: you can’t beat Scooby Doo for poetic inspiration 🙂

I hope the monster accepts some candy corn as a truce offering 🙂
