I THINK I get 'rare', as in not medium or well done steak, and I had to look up, 'cadaver', which is a nuisance when you're lazy like me.

I don't 'see' much imagery here, but you certainly have captured the horror 'spirit' (excuse the pun).

Good luck and best wishes, Ray

This 5-7-5, Putrid Cadaver, uses a fairly gross graphic to support the humorous poem that uses alliterative description and a play on words to create a great example of the form in the horror mode.

Hi there,

A very good entry for this competition. Both very clever and funny. Excellent presentation as well. The author's notes also gave me a chuckle.

Good luck.

This 5-7-5 poem starts off well, but
I think the last line is weak. There
should be an Aha moment in the last
line, not so in this one.

Nevertheless, best wishes in the contest.

    Hello Erica, you are confusing 5/7/5 poem with a haiku. In a 5/7/5 poem the only rule is the syllable count, there is no limit of what you can do with it. You may check the rules of the contest. Thank you for the review.

Love the artwork that you have chosen my twisted friend! Masterfully crafted piece of horror for this wonderful little 5-7-5 horror prompt. We should all take a STAB at this awesome prompt. Heh heh!
God bless!
