Day Eight ... NaPoWriMo / Poem-a-Day 2018

Maureen Thorson’s NaPoWriMo prompt: "Let’s . . . write poems in which mysterious and magical things occur. Your poem could take the form of a spell, for example, or simply describe an event that can’t be understood literally. Feel free to incorporate crystal balls, fauns, lightning storms, or whatever seems fierce and free and strange." Robert Lee Brewer’s Poem-a-Day prompt: "For today’s prompt, write a family poem. Good, bad, big, small, adopted, imaginary, nonexistent–everyone has to deal with family (even if that involves running from it or chasing it down). I have a feeling today’s prompt is going to stir up some really good poems." Okay, mashed up both prompts and came up with another installment in the novella-in-poems I'm writing about two mythic Philippine monsters — aswang — who fall in love and try to live like ordinary humans but find themselves continually plagued by their own monsterly natures. P O E M   R E M O V E D while being submitted for publication.   Please come back later. The poem may return at some time in the future. Thank you!       Friends, won’t you comment, please?
