Sweet. I have my entry right here.
\One Bloody Night/
The chill of night,
The rush of blood,
One more bite,
Under the twilight
When the sky becomes ink,
Dark shadows from Hell abide,
Spirits sink,
Demons rise
Shattering screeches split the air,
Like when a bloody knife
Rips and tears
A human soul...
There are no lights,
No way out,
Don't give them a fight,
Or you will become the dammed that roam the Earth on
This one bloody night.
GL to eveyone. =]

Dark Night
Dark night
Full of fright
Cats on a prowl
Wolves start howl
Ghost out spooking
Ghouls all scary looking
Skulls and cross bones
Flying threw the air stones
Saddening fright
Lives holding tight
A sight and a scream
Leave a horrid seem
Halloween night
What a sight

Fear rings in your head
as the monster in your bed,
is screamin',
summoning demons,
You begin to scream,
as the ghost in your dreams,
is moaning,
and groaning,
Warewolves begin to howl,
and the monsters start to growl,
you feel like dying,
you can't stop crying
The nightmare it will not end,
the demons start to descend,
and you're screaming,
you're only dreaming

when the plain crashes,
it falls to the ashes,
I see her on the ground,
With all these thoughts in my mound,
I feel I should pound,
Cuz i got the feelin' of a hound,
to scream and yell,
I'm in this hell,
And that's when a bell,
got rung,
which woke me and brung,
to my destiny,
of reality.
It's like on a plane of Halloween.:P

Poe made me enter :)
Kids of laughter
Sweets of happiness
What the children didn’t know was the Urban Myth
What a pity for it was true
How big of a fool
One Halloween some children mistered
How terrifying the sound of shackles and bones crunching
What a living hell they thought it was
Rawr!
Tears of blood ran from the eyes of never to be seen again children

Poetic and I judged this contest. If you're going to be a sore loser about it, it might do you well to actually read the first post the next time you enter something. If you respond to this by saying you DID read the first post, then you, in fact, already knew that no poll would be posted, and Poe and I would judge. People who make fools of themselves after losing a contest are those which shouldn't enter them in the first place. There's always next time - your poetry needs work, and if you can't accept that you may not be the best of poets in this thread, than perhaps you shouldn't be entering in any contests at all. Sore losers and people who whine are always a pain to have around, I'm sorry to say.
Everyone needs work on what they write. On what they do. Even Poetic and I can always improve, even the winners can always improve, because in whatever it is you do, there is always improvement to be had. Your poem was a very interesting read indeed - you don't have to be so defensive about there not being a poll when you know the real problem you're having is the fact that you didn't win. In all honesty, I think we both know that even if there HAD been a poll, the same two people would've won. There's always next time, so keep that in mind - practice, and you may win the next round.
In other words: Chill the hell out.

Me chill? Why me? Look at you. Look at your posts. All you had to say was don't enter if your going to be a sore loser about it. But then you drstcially take it to the next level beyond anything we need.
