The Bottom Line If you host it, I will cheat.............
Okay, I admit it. I can’t follow write off instructions. It seems to be genetically encoded that I somehow break the rules. I blame my parents. It’s their genetics, after all, that have caused this unfortunate anomaly. In any case, yes, I am cheating once again. St_Patrick is hosting the That Scared the #@&% Out of Me write off. The idea here is to post a review of something, anything, which scared the pants off you. I chose not to do that, of course. John Boy, aka trust12345 (he loves his user-name, by the way) is hosting the Second Chance write off. The idea here is to resurrect a long forgotten epinion and give it a little bit of new life. Maybe something that went tragically unnoticed, or something of which you are particularly proud. I chose neither, of course. So in my cheaterly cheating way, I have combined these two fine write offs into one spectacularly putrid piece of poetry for the enjoyment of all (blame John, he asked for entries to be submitted in the form of poetry bad enough to induce vomiting. I followed this rule, of course). Instead of a review I think particularly wonderful, I chose a movie I think particularly wonderful, and one that is scary as hell. Thus we have a resurrected review of a movie that Scared the #@&% Out of Me. It’s a twofer! This may be my biggest cheat yet, but the movie is truly scary, and the poetry is truly awful, so I hope both fine hosts will forgive me. On with the verse!! The autumn wind blew damp and foul
An eddy of moldering leaves arose
As the dark whirling mass did begin to gel
The dervish grew
As the vast dank eddy took monstrous form
As it seemed the end was fast approaching
The leaf pile from hell was now upon them
The inferno of foliage began to retreat
The people, they were agitated,
It was at this point the shadow came
Sometimes fear is the only fuel sought
