For today’s prompt I’ve gathered seven pop culture quotes
that have to do with angels, monsters or both. Your mission is to pick one and
create a poem based on it. Your poem does not have to specifically be about an
angel or a monster, but it must have some relation to at least one of these
quotes. Please be sure to mention the quote that served as your inspiration
somewhere in your post, and as always pay a visit to your fellow poets.
“I’m the thing monsters have nightmares about.” – Buffy the
Vampire Slayer.
“He’s an angel, not a saint.” – Michael
“'Listen to them, the children of the night. What music they
make!” - Dracula
“One may tolerate a world of demons for the sake of an
angel.” – Doctor Who
“I can spot a
commandment breaker a mile away.” –Dogma
“Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other
lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?” – It’s A
Wonderful Life
“We all go a little mad sometimes.” - Psycho
Rommy, I hit "publish" for you, since it was time. I hope that's okay.

ReplyDeletePS: Sorry about the weird parens after my name...a carry over from my last dVerse poem post. ;)
This is an interesting prompt, with lots of leverage. I didn't do scary as monsters tend to connote, but rather i went for, read-between-the-lines
ReplyDeletemuch love...
@Bjorn, you made me cackle.
ReplyDelete@Rommy, I really loved this one (and took way too much pleasure writing something for it).
Great challenge Rommy, its been a hoot leaping lily pad to lily pad, encountering angels and monsters of every stripe.
