A Dickens of a Feast
A Write or Die Response
.
A writer waiting to devour
Dickens’ Heart and Soul
Whence come at last the midnight hour
Blood scratched upon a scroll
The writing worm eats earth and stones
But the quill has left his story
Cut out his liver eat all his bones
His words are for Eternity
(Subdue your appetites, my dears,
and you’ve conquered human nature*)
But Dickens’ heart beats on my desk
His kidneys I had with Chianti
.
*Charles Dickens Quote
Jazalyn AJ Cannon you have been entered to the Hell of the Dead by me. To escape to the Living Hall, you will have to recreate this piece in your own words or extend it as part of the Write or Die collaboration. Failure to comply will leave your name and soul in the Hell of the Dead.
Two writers I truly enjoy reading. Will be fun to see if they live or die.
