You just never know what you are going to find when you google. I was looking for an addition to my Reflecting on Reflections posting, a poem, a song... something. Anyway, this is where I was led. I think they call this a happy accident. Full credit to Karen who's site this is from. I have included a link to her website. So... here is my attempt at this process. I've chosen a novel that I was going to alter as the genre just isn't my cup of tea ... Richard Bachman, aka, Stephen King. I am sorry if you are offended.
It's a little dark but you must consider what I had to work with. The poem turned out much better than the altered book, I will have to work on this a bit more. I am going to try this with one of my favorite books, The Prince of Tides, for poem material only, no altering that one!
down from the turret
the ruins of
a woman with
cruel, beautful features
pale as a
vampire
black and silver
not really there at all
reality was the
utterly blank
illusion
I can see it
insubstantial but still threatening
voice is the only truth
pulled toward it
through the black
but for the moment
ceased to exist
