Rules

1) Leave a prompt in the form of fandom, characters or relationships, prompt. If you don’t want to specify the fandom or characters, you can say "any." One prompt per comment. Leave as many prompts as you like.

2) Reply to other people’s prompts with poems. The poems can be any length or form, or no form. Quality isn’t important--the point is to have fun, not to produce deathless works of art. (Any deathless works of art produced are just a bonus.)

FAQ

Q: I want to write a sonnet/haiku/villanelle/limerick, but I’m not sure how it goes.

A: You can find a good list of poetic forms and their structures here.

Q: I want to lik the bred.

A: Go right ahead.

Q: I want to fill a prompt, but someone else has already filled it.

A: That’s okay, prompts can be filled multiple times.

Q: I want to write explicit erotica, or a poem with potentially disturbing themes. Is that okay, and what sort of content do I need to warn for?

A: Sure, that's fine. Warnings are up to you, and choosing not to warn is okay too.

Q: How long is the fest going to be running for?

A: Currently, I don't have any plans to close this post to comments--I figure we'll keep going until everyone gets bored and wanders off. I reserve the right to change my mind, though.

Q: Is there a collection on AO3 where I can post my poems?

A: Right here.

Q: I want to participate, but I suck at writing poetry.

A: Aww, you’re probably not as bad as you think. But even if you are, it really doesn’t matter--like I said, the main point is to have fun.

I'm certain the troll (that I PUNCHED!)
Would taste better than candles to munch.
You're discussing the merits
Of cooking with "carrots"
So I guess this will be a light lunch!

The Goblin Emperor, Csetherio/Maia, a sword against your enemies

[hamsterwoman]

As dainty bauble we could never please
The court, the gossips, but, Serenity,
We'll be a sword against your enemies.

A warrior's heart is out of fashion these
Days, and like our nose, it's plain to see
As dainty bauble we could never please.

No handicap is kindness; no disease
A gentle heart upon the throne, and we
Can be the sword against your enemies.

You build your bridges, never to appease,
But to do right: a lasting legacy,
No worthless bauble. It could never please

Us to be mere drapery, to cease
The warrior's dance; we choose instead to be
A sharpened sword against your enemies.

So let us share, in hardship and in ease,
Whatever fate thou findst or buildst for thee:
As dainty bauble I could never please --
I'll be a sword against thy enemies.

Pokemon Sun & Moon, Hau/Sun, friends or lovers - what's the difference?

Stand Still Stay Silent, any prologue character, "And the world died"

[minutia_r]

“For economic reasons,” so they said
Better lose some trade from the outside
Than half the workforce show up sick or dead.
So we were safe, while all the world died.

They gave us guns, and said to watch the screen.
In fear of twisted beasts, we put to sea.
The ocean’s depths pierced by a dreadful keen,
My dreams were echoes of their agony.

But when we met a vessel under sail
We always saw them safely back to land
Till once we got no answer to our hail.
We flashed our lights. They didn’t understand.

The order given couldn’t be denied.
I pressed a button, and the world died.

[kiraly]

How wonderful, so juicy and so sweet,
One perfect tube of steaming, gleaming meat.
Though Hannu says they're bad for me, I state,
Dinner is better when they're on my plate.
One more is all I ask, and one more still,
Good gracious, I will never have my fill!
Sausages, they give me quite a thrill.

Stand Still Stay Silent, Sigrun/Tuuri, birds

[(Anonymous)]

my lover’s heart is a bird in flight,
the fluttering beat of wings
against pale ribs. her breath
a hidden world, fingers warm
and soft. my own, calloused
and war-torn, unsuitable
for holding such a gentle thing
as her. but she, graced with
light, comes to me, trembling.
and i, amazed, take her into
my arms.

It took my sister
She flew far beyond my reach
Afterwards, she fell

It gave back a child
Unwillingly, love and blood
Bound us together
