Re: Post A Short story
Here's a poem I scribbled earlier on.
The Lure of The Nepenthe In my garden, there is this creature Come of tales and myths long told Green is this terror of alien feature Recited and named among men of old Thus began the humble, innocent cells, Sprouting from the rosettes of life Up and beyond it stretched and unfurled For growth hath no fury like haste scorned But beware, the dark designs thus shaped The end, the edge, the tip last followedth Concealed for now, but forever not The trap of doom that was to come Days gone by, the hours were spent, The sun, the rain, the roots grew deep, The craft worked forth now its concealment, A thin veil to ease its hidden passing A tendril came forth, amidst the silence Invisible hands to guide the dance, As it catches on to a stage of sorts The curtains will rise and the show begins Embellished with vigour and in sight of light The craft continues its designs unharmed With force, it expells its glory unfettered, Beyond the imagination, comes a being of fright Big and vast did it expand without fail A vessel of the highest complexities The lid, immaculate but not insidous A tongue that speaks before the beast Thus the hour hath come for the world To ponder and reel at this creation For no man hath failed to apprehend The lure of the creature that is the Nepenthe.
