When the sky ignites
A shiver, frisson, escapes
Earth bows to power

Her head turned away
A bashful swan hides beauty
Behind a white veil

She fell asleep, in a book, in a faraway land
To dream about love, the touch of his hand
She surrounded herself, in clouds and stars
Curled up in the pages, of Jupiter and Mars
But, words became blurry, no longer told tales
The nightmare began, her dreams, assailed
Lost in the binding, she fought to awaken
Unsteady hands quaked, as if being shaken
Try as she may, she remained in the dream
Until the harrowing sound of a horrid scream
Brought her back to reality, groggy, but she
Was still caught in the pages, and ever will be

In his wildest dreams, he was a pirate
A swashbuckler much better than Kidd
Though merely a fantasy, his free spirit
Nearly did him in, oh, God forbid!
Found himself a lady, the finest, was she
Treated her poorly, and it cost him
When he wasn’t looking, went on a spree
Left him with nothing, but exhaustion
When realizing he had nothing to wear
He went out, and found himself a sewer
Turns out, it’s the sister, he took to his lair
Only the devil, it appears, didn’t know her
Promising to make him the best costume ever
Sneering, he said, get to it, I will not pester
When finished, presented him, her endeavor
Laughed, because she made it out of polyester
He wondered aloud, how could this be right?
This fabric is horrid on the skin, it itches!!
He looked for her, but she fled, in the night
Now he’s stuck, with irritated britches
May Writing Prompts – The Devil Wears Polyester – Day 31/31 – Hard to believe another month has passed, and June is knocking on our door! The twisted book titles were a blast. Next months prompts are sure to catch your fancy…a little bit different than what you’re used to. 😉
