Attys Stories

The title speaks a lot

The moment you see her

A series of poems of different styles, united by the theme of monsters. The first ten were my entry into the 2012 Attys. Audio performances can be found at the link below: http://soundcloud.com/jonnycastoardern/sets/monsters/

My collection for the atty's by Camakaze2 (Cameron)

Table of Contents: Haiku: Autumnal Massacre  Etheree: Hidden World Haibun: Shooting Stars Free Verse: Reminiscent Shadows Rhyming Couplet: Love's Nebulous Acrostic: Red-light Beauty Ballade: Death Undone Dramatic Monologue: Sins of my… Diamante: Thin line… Tristichic: Thunder and Wind

This is one of the first poems that I ever wrote. Those that know me outside of this site may recognize it, but I want to post it here to make it more widely known. I'm entering this in the Attys, and I'm hoping it will get me more recognition as a poet. It's partially about why I started writing, being a poet, etc. But its also about how I was really lost for a while, and I actually did have a dream like this. So please, read, comment, vote, whatever it is you feel like doing.
