1. The conflict of nature
-- Run.
Howl.
-- Jump.
Bark.
---It's freedom.
 Then change.
*Remember!*
 Walk on two legs,
Not four.
Cooked meat,
Not raw.
--Act human
Look human
 ----Not human,
Wolf
*Momentary falter*
--Ancient species
Undetected.
 --Unsuspected.
-- Not human
Nor wolf
-------But both

Written by [Alexi Ice]



2. Werewolves

Moon, powder white and full,
soaring high in the sky,
glowing in the painted canvas of ebony,
gazing down at us all...
basking us in its soothing balm of beams...
we are losing our human side,
letting our very beings go...

Our kind is awakened,
wrecked from within,
a beast is now alive...
we can not even control this change that consumes.

A monster revealed,
taking the form of beast,
we run through the abyss of night,
stars feverishly bright,
our human side so faint...

The smells of the wild
are inhaled,
perfuming our noses,
a killer we become,
lusting for a drop of blood
and taste of mortal's meat.

Coming across a little child,
her skin and liquid melt in my mouth...
I can't control myself any more...
the teeth ripping through, deafening her horrid cries
that echo and echo emptily.

Now limp in my mouth,
I escape and splash into a river,
allowing the crimson to seep from my mouth,
my reflection mirrors back...

And as the ribbons of frost cascade down
to kiss my pelts,
glittering the inky water,
I look heavenward,
and realize how truly cursed we are.

Written by [Thunder Cid]



3. Moonlight Change

The moon came out of the trees.
My bones started to change,
mold,
grow,
bend,
and break.
Changing into a shape I didn’t know.
All I knew was that I was changing,
but into what?
I was scared to know.
I ran at full speed,
from the horror.
To a small lake in the woods,
And looked upon the monster I became.
A wolf!

Written by [LinkTurrner]



4. More Like A Nightmare

The clock strikes twelve and what do you see.
A human changing forms behind a tree.
Curious you are, you go to check it out.
You see the horror and start to scream and shout.
The face is morphing, the legs getting longer.
The arms are bulging and starting to get stronger.
You look up to the sky to see a full moon.
The transformation will be done soon.
You need to get away as fast as you can.
This thing that you see is no longer a man.
The werewolf jumps out in one long stride.
You start looking and looking for a place to hide.
He stares at the sky and begins his howling.
Then looks right at you, sneering and scowling.
With one last jump, you start to scream,
and then wake up from this horrible dream.

Written by [FamousPanda]



5. No Title

Stumbling and falling to get away.
Flesh and bones, ripping, stretching, apart.
Growing, growing, in such a way.
He then takes, a needed dart.

Running, panting, not thinking to stop.
Twisting, turning, with no light to guide.
Distant howling, screaming, in the backdrop.
The feeling of no gained, self needed pride.

Moon now casting it's full light.
Howling and whining all around.
There's no need to try and fight.
Others closing on his ground.

Brothers and sisters are now near.
Another reign of howling, has now, come.
He will no longer, live, with this fear.
He has found, happily, a family, a new home.

Written by [Tynuka-Rhytishy]



6. My Other

My feet no longer my feet,
my hands no longer my hands,
the hunger that fills me is not mine,
not truly.
Something other possesses me,
pulls away my skin,
blood flowing as hair thickens into fur,
and suddenly the night sings to me.
My body stretches and twists, bones changing shape
in a nightmare of endless pain.
finally the pain recedes and shriek becomes howl;
urgent and forelorn.
The hunt fills my soul and I begin to move,
flowing through the shadows and trees,
following a brief scent on the air.
I do not know what the wolf has found,
and deep inside the me that is caged in this animal,
I am consumed by terror that what I hunt
will be you.

Written by [Ambivalence]




7) Howling Inside.

Inside my shell I’m howling,
Singing,
Screaming,
At a milky blue moon.
Casting shadows upon me,
Around me,
Comforting and real,
I feel,
Myself growing and turning,
Yearning to break free from,
Harsh realities and formalities,
Chained around me.
Inside my coat is wiry and fur,
And I will learn,
Yet, to control the beast with in.
Oh the lust,
The cravings to become,
One with the moon.
Oh - That milky blue moon,
Shinning blue down on me,
Teaching me,
And showing me,
How life could be,
If only I could see,
What a werewolf I would become,
If my human suit became undone.

2008-11-17 [Alexi Ice]: Comments, praise, concerns??? This is one of the best poems I have ever written, I think! Attacked me in the middle of the night (lol) I would love some feedback! ^^

2008-11-19 [Alexi Ice]: Thank you thank you! and it did I swear! Kept buzzing around in my brain until I woke up and wrote it down ^^

2008-11-19 [Thunder Cid]: I told you I'll be your biggest rival.

2008-11-19 [Alexi Ice]: 'I can't control myself no more...'
I can control myself no more. Still wrong, but better. It should really be 'I can no longer control myself' or 'I can't control myself any longer.

'and realize how truly curse we are.'
Cursed, dear.

Other than that great job! You were right about the big words, I loved it ^^ Very sensory detailed, very nice.

2008-11-19 [Linderel]: Losing, not loosing.
The repeated use of ellipsis is a tad distracting. Jarring, even.
I love the last stanza. Though I'm quite sure you can't say 'upon heavenward' - just doesn't sound right.

2008-11-19 [Thunder Cid]: X) I can fix those.

2008-11-19 [Linderel]: :)

I'll start working in earnest on my own submissions for both this and the Elf session the coming weekend...

2008-11-19 [Thunder Cid]: Have fun. I'm working on my unicorn submission now.

2008-11-19 [Linderel]: I've a unicorn poem from 2003, I think... no way I'm submitting that one xD

2008-11-19 [Thunder Cid]: I think unicorns are so hard to write about. I keep having blanks here and there X(

Why won't you submit it?

2008-11-19 [Linderel]: Dude, I wrote it in 2003. That's five years of development in skills between then and now. Besides, it's had its limelight. 'Twas my sixth featured poem.

2008-11-19 [Thunder Cid]: Dude...okay XD

2008-11-19 [Linderel]: :P

2008-11-19 [Alexi Ice]: I think Elfs are more complicated than unicorns, honestly. What do you think of mine [Linderel]?

2008-11-23 [Alexi Ice]: Sorry, I like to delete my random comments after they have been spoken, I think it is part of my OCD. lol.

2008-11-28 [Alexi Ice]: I edited a bit of yours for you, Wolfie. ^^ Just a few spelling mistakes.

2008-11-28 [Linderel]: It's break, not brake.

2008-11-28 [LinkTurrner]: thanks.. wolf girl

and nice poem, yours is cool too cid

2008-11-28 [Alexi Ice]: No problem, and thank you. ^^

2008-11-30 [FamousPanda]: wooo i love inspiration! =D oh and i numbered number 3 just soz you guys know. =] i thought it looked left out with no number beside it

2008-11-30 [FamousPanda]: great poems everyone

2008-11-30 [Hedda]: Eh, no important comments have been deleted from this wiki-page. It was just these comments that were deleted by the writers themselves:

| [Alexi Ice]        | Wow I am SO ready for this contest to be open.                                                |
| [Artsieladie]        | This session will be the next one. :)                                                    |
| [Alexi Ice]        | I know and I am SO excited ( I love werewolves!)                                               |
| [Alexi Ice]        | Yes, that is so stupid for them to ban elftown. I undestand myspace, because it is mearly a chat site but Elftown has so much more to offer! |
| [Artsieladie]        | Amen! :D                                 

2008-11-30 [Alexi Ice]: Thank you for your assistance, Panda ^^

And who was concerned about our comments, Hedda?

2008-11-30 [Hedda]: [windowframe] didn't find her comments so she thought that they were deleted, but she had posted them on another wiki-page.

2008-11-30 [Alexi Ice]: Oh, ok. ^^ She told me I was being rude for deleting my comments. It is a bad habit for me, though...I cant help it.

2008-12-01 [windowframe]: I find it rude to delete one's own comments if you've had a conversation with someone else, since it leaves the other person looking like they're talking to themselves.

What if the person is being rude and trying to instigate trouble on the page they created, though - especially if it's an official page? ;) (Otherwise they can be as rude as they want on their own page).

2008-12-01 [Alexi Ice]: Well what I wonder is, who really shifts back through all the previous comments in the first place, and they probably know that people arnt just prattling with themsleves so they know that, for whatever reason, the comments that were there were deleted. I doubt that they sit and thing ' wow she is a freak, listen to her talking to herself. '

2008-12-01 [windowframe]: You'd be surprised (at who reads past comments AND at what conclusions people come to when they see lots of comments by one person). Besides, they'd be freaks themselves if they could hear my written word. :)

2008-12-01 [Alexi Ice]: Lol. That was funny. ^^ I didn't even catch it.

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: I go back and read past comments. I just like to see what was said and who was talking to who. It doesn't bother me that you delete your comments, but it stops me from knowing what was going on. Right now im just kinda not liking the chit chat about the comments being deleted. Not trying to offend anyone but it is kinda pointless, whats done is done and it cant really be brought back, so the arguments {discussions} are talking about something that can't be changed. I keep thinking someone is talking about people's art on wikis and i go to look at the comments and its [Alexi Ice] and someone else talking about comments being deleted. =/ Just had to say my part. So how is everyone doing?

2008-12-02 [Alexi Ice]: Thank you. I would love to stop, but it is ruder to ignore someones comments then delete them completly

I am doing fine, it is a bit chilly here and I am hoping for snow!!!!!!!! How about you Panda?

2008-12-02 [windowframe]: Not trying to offend anyone but it is kinda pointless, whats done is done and it cant really be brought back, so the arguments {discussions} are talking about something that can't be changed.

Does that mean that all history is pointless? :P I see a mob of angry historians on the horizon.

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: No [windowframe] not all history is pointless, and I understand your point that there is a point to leaving the comments on the page for people to read, and that it might be really important to someone but talking about it and arguing about it isn't going to bring it back. that was my point. Oh and bring on the historians, ill show them the future, lol wow.. lame. -looks down in shame-

And I'm good Mitsuki, hoping for some snow myself.

2008-12-02 [windowframe]: But it may stop it happening again, and that was my only point in mentioning it. :) I'm not some big nasty giant determined to devour people, y'know ;)

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: i know that [windowframe] I was just tired of it going on and on. Did you get my message for the Secret Santa?

2008-12-02 [windowframe]: So you helped it carry on. (everyone wants to have their say, but doesn't want any one else to have their say). :P Yes, I have them all sitting there unread so I don't loose them in my history of messages, and they're going to stay that way until the 12th, since I'm a busy little bee until then. Then I'll sort them all out, place them all on the secret wiki so that you can all see them after christmas. :)

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: kk.. do you need to know who it is for or do you have that?

2008-12-02 [windowframe]: No, I have all that written down. :)

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: kk.. good lol

2008-12-02 [Alexi Ice]: We need a plan to make it snow!!!! *attempts to call forth the snow*

................It isn't working................LOL.

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: Hehe Good luck.

2008-12-02 [Alexi Ice]: Any other ideas of how to call forth snow?

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: Snow Dance!!

2008-12-02 [Alexi Ice]: *Dances poorly*

Maybe it will snow tonights, its 29 here so if I could just conjure some rain we would be in buisness.

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: Wow.. well believe it or not but it can be too cold to snow lol.

2008-12-02 [Alexi Ice]: Is 29 too cold to snow?

2008-12-02 [FamousPanda]: I don't think so but not sure.

2008-12-02 [Alexi Ice]: I hope not!! That wouldn't be cool at all.

2008-12-20 [Alexi Ice]: ! I want snow!!!!!!!!!!! *sniffle* I miss it SOOOOO much! I havn't seen snow since febuary!

2008-12-20 [Ambivalence]: We got around 16 inches accumulation over the last couple of days and it's coming down hard again now. It's so beautiful here when it snows.

2008-12-21 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: We have nothing but rain! -pout- It was thundering a bit earlier. All kinds of signs of bad snow storms, but it's like you guys are getting our snow. =[

2008-12-21 [FamousPanda]: give it back!

2008-12-21 [FamousPanda]: Go for it!

2008-12-21 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: Yes, go for it. =3
