Terzanelle: Into a Neil Story

Since I am such a Neil Gaiman fan and today's prompt is to write a terzanelle. I thought that I would write about the world that Neil creates. This fantastical and ethereal world that are usually tinted greys and nothing is quite the same as the real world.

Today is N for Neil Gaiman

Poetic Style: Terzanelle

Topic: Neil Gaiman's Worlds

Into a Neil Story

Dropped into a story one day

after I had fallen into repose,

the world as I knew it tinted grey.

Where rules followed laws make up in prose

everything looked quite similar

after I had fallen into repose.

I only had a moment before I saw her

standing there much like a plot device

and everything looked quite similar.

She looked at me and then twice

reaching for my hand slowly

standing there much like a plot device.

She thus said, "Take my hand and let us flee,

past the old castle ways and below..."

reaching for my hand slowly.

And I am running for my life through

and past the old castle ways and below.

Dropped into a story one day

the world as I knew it tinted grey.
