THE HOUSE STANDS ALONE

unefemmediscrete Deactivated

Cliff House and Seal Rocks by Moonlight, San Francisco, c 1900.

 

 

 

The waves dance in fury,

hitting the sharp rocks.

The house towers above,

glaring at intruders.

Death to anyone

who dare to violate its shores.

THE DEAD GAME

Since you've stated that you allude to "End House" in your novel, your poem captures its essence.

A sinister poem indicating the danger one encounters an tempting to breach the walls of a castle keep. Cool.

Upon my arrival in September 1966 one of the first places that I stopped in San Francisco was the Cliff House. It was a beautiful lookout place and tourist trap where you could put coins in old coin-operated games and things from a century before. A great fun place, unlike your poem.

Sandie, I began writing poetry as a way to promote my book. I discovered that I love to write poems. I've experimented with different topics and even tried Haiku. But I still write about End House in my book. The creepy house fascinates me. It's fictional but has become real to me.

I'm with Mystic here. I'd like to see you do one like this with a widow's walk.

Ahhh . . . The waves are the winner in this challenging write. The waves usually always win as they continually beat against the shoreline.

Scary!!! Is this one relating to your book, "The Dead Game"?

Sandie :)

Epiphany by Gary Stephens

“We’re going to use nine megaton warheads in space and we’re not sure they’re large enough to be effective. Why would you even consider using kiloton-range surface-to-air warheads as back-up?” The answer was succinct. “Because they’re all we have.”

Killer With Black Blood by James Hill

Nicky Nails Rocci will be New York’s Godfather even if it kills him. Bulletproof MoJo Johnson won’t let a little thing like death stand in the way.
