Body Horror: Write a poem about the thing or things that scare you about the human body.
This could be a fun day to do a spoken poem. To create a spoken poem, record yourself speaking the poem as it comes to you then copy down what you said, and use that to write your poem.
There is a video in ModPo PLUS (pt. 2) on a passage from Jerome Rothenberg’s Pre-Faces & Other Writings in which Jerome Rothenberg talks about “Sounding” poetry that you might enjoy.
And also this video discussing Amiri Baraka’s How You Sound??

Today’s image prompt is a disturbing personification of separate facial sensory organs. What could possibly make this happen?

Please link to your creations in the comments. I can’t wait to see what you come up with.
For today’s Peril of the Screen there is of course the entire Scream franchise.
The first Scream movie, directed by Wes Craven, came out in 1996. And the latest installments Scream (V) came out last year and Scream VI came out recently.


Laura De Bernardi
Horror Butt Humour
Who knew that moo rhymed with loo
That for the throne there might be a queue
For the Aussie bogger it’s nothing new
While down the john, you can say ‘it flew’
Tho’ not for cows or those in a zoo
The act not being a pleasant view
If not possible you can feel very blue
Misplaced it can stick like glue
Be rock solid, oh woe is you
Having the consistency of water or goo
Sometimes it’s even best to spew
So much depends on this do doo
That from the bunghole springs too true
PS: Here’s hoping I don’t get banned for my effort today. Wit is not my strong suit so apologising in advance.
