I enjoyed reading thought provoking Quinzaine poem Luna. Excellent artwork and presentation and the closing line with the question which draws the reader into the "undead" world. Well done.

Blessings

would be hard to run in all that snow and ice. Nothing wrong with this poem. Interesting concept I must try sometimes. Best to you.

Luna,

You've chosen an interesting topic which seems to
have a much deeper meaning as well. I see you have
chosen the traditional def. of the form here with
two questions.

Yes, let's all run from the undead.
Good idea...problem is they are everywhere!

Linda

Yes, I can run fast if the undead are closing in on me. Hi jeni - This is a fascinating quinzaine with engaging artwork that places the reader in the midst of the action. Just a note that Fanstory has changed the definition/rules for quinzaine. Shadow Poetry has the 5 and 3 syllables lines as two questions - and that's the way we used to write them. The current rules have the question beginning in the second line and finishing in the third (check contest example). So, it is no longer a requirement that there are 2 question, just one question split into a 5 and 3 syllable lines - such as ...
Undead advancing closer
My next decision,
can I run?

Good luck in the contest. I just wrote one for the contest, but haven't posted yet. Cheers .... ;o) Art

Zombies like to eat brains. Sometimes I think that Washington is full of Zombies, as most politicians have lost their brains. This is a clever little piece of poetic thoughts. I enjoyed reading and writing this response for it... John

This is thew first one of these that I have seen that has managed to get two questions in following the first, statement line. The progression through the two statements is excellent, the first first question being routine almost banal, and certainly rehetorical, followed by the important one that you need to be able to answere in the affirmative or else...

I can run a hundred feet in an hour or so. Slowly finding myself confined to mechanical transportation. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read.

A very well-written Quinzaine. We all get closer to the finishing line day after day.
The second line has 6 syllables instead of five, and the question is not a very clear question.

    Hi, Sandra! Thanks for reading my poem and leaving me your thoughts.

    It seemed that the consensus is divided
    ... I checked a few Internet syllable counters, and they were just about evenly divided between 2 and 3 syllables in the offending word, business.

    Consequently I'm going to leave as is.

    Thank you though, for bringing that to my attention. I'm most certainly prone to error!

    Love, Jeni
