REALLY AWFUL WARNING


FERNIS HEAD WITH FIRE WBFC

FERNIS

Now hear  ye, in my Dragon post
I fain would gather votes the most,
Let me remind thee: I’m a mage;
Thou would’st not see me in a rage?

Or yet, annoy my flaming friend,
Who  might then fry thee up thine end,
And when thou’d turned a tasteful black
Wouldst crunch thee up for morning snack?

So sally ye forth  thither, then,
Rememb’ring I am number ten,
And if ye magicke therein see,
Pray cast an  email vote for me …

Or I may’st steal away thy souls,
And make thy socks go full of holes,
And change thy morning coffee to
A frogspawn, snail-slimed, hellish brew,

And organise a maggot crew,
Thy entrails, while alive, to chew,
And clog thy arteries with glue –
Pray that my meaning cometh through? 

Assuredly the day shalt rue
Should thee not this, thy duty, do,
Supporting me by choosing true –
The ‘ ten’ remaineth vital clue!

And even though it gets thy goat,
It needful is for a re-vote,
Thus, though thou put one in before
Do it again, or it won’t score!

      Good to see you!
      Clicking on the ‘thither’ should take you to a post where there are four finalists in a dragon story writing contest. Clicking on their numbers enables one to read them. Then an email is sent to the designated address to vote for the one you like the most.

  7. For fear of being crunched, I have gone back and voted again. I approve substantially of your subtlety! Definitely the way to go. Throw in guilt, fear and any other form of bribery you can think of 😀

    I read this through
    and thought let a second vote do,
    Went to the link and what stink
    The ballot paper is on the blink!
