Meeting of The Minds (with Geezer)

In the doorway she stood
without a care.
His expression priceless.
As if he never saw someone
floating in thin air.

She watched him stare,
despite the jagged tear
Self-inflicted from ear to ear.
Still this handsome fellow,
showed no fear.

Bloody kisses
caught in the breeze
He thought her head,
may fall off with just one sneeze.
Her decaying heart skipped a beat

Her voice is in his head now
She speaks without a sound
He doesn't know just how
But he likes having her around

Are you all alone my dear?
Take me home tonight
Just hug and hold me near
Though I know I'm such a sight

Killer thinks she would be pretty
With a scarf around her neck
Wash her hair, it seems so gritty
He had shampoo, the last he checked

How delightful, her little smile
Lips just short of a smirk
Killer entranced the whole while
He thinks this may really work

It's so easy...

to work with someone of a like mind! Our styles are a little bit different, but we have a good grasp of what it takes to make our characters mesh. Carrie always comes up with something I can work with and she seems to have the knack for feeling which way to go. All in all, this is fun! ~ Gee

Alot of fun. Our characters find ways to connect and Gee is always patient with my lack of meter.

Your lack of meter...

doesn't detract much from the story and that is what is important. We can always work on the meter
after the story is told. This a workshop after all. ~ Gee

I agree with Chrys.

To put it crudely... the thing needs more bulk. We need a storyline and not just the introduction of the characters. It worked so well it would be a shame to let go just yet.
