[QUOTE="LcKedovan, post: 401135, member: 1576"] Ok, so I can't say that this one ranks up with the esteemed list above, but I wanted to post one of my favourite poems... one that I wrote when in college. ;) I'll also add one of my "Cthulhuesque" ones after... I wrote these a long time ago, so please forgive if you find them crap :) [B]Nice Guys Finish Last[/B] I know I have no chance with you Lots of money and looks would do I just don't have what others give The chance for love is all I have Once again, nice guys finish last the way it's always been in past Maybe I should change my ways, to the rude and crude that get the babes Maybe, Right! I'll never switch My inner self is always this No matter what will come to pass I know, nice guys finish last. © 1995 William Ehgoetz [B]Deadlands[/B] The flashlight leads the way below The misty graveyard, covered in snow. The toppled grave revealed the way Into the tunnels, dark and grey. A gurgle echos from the depths, The realm of ghouls, awakened perhaps? Creeping, shuffling, coming soon The creatures undead, bringers of doom. Uttering chants to forgotten Gods I pray that I can beat the odds Of escaping this rancid smelling place Where vaguely manlike forms erase the knowledge that they lurk below The misty graveyard, covered in snow. © 1995 William Ehgoetz -W.
