This was amazingly well done Yvette, I do think you have conquered Robert's Cube16. This was so interesting to read, and I liked all the different possibilities. Per your narrative notes, yes I have read the series and I agree that the movie sucked. Great job.

    Oh I'm so glad you enjoyed my fancy flight here, Alie -- sometimes you just have to let the muses out to play around a bit, ya know?! Thanx so much for the review and enjoy a fantastical weekend out (or is up now?) there! ;) Yvette

Yvette,
Well at least you had some time to live in a fantasy world of possibilities of where to return the key and what it opened. But little kids are good pretenders too as the key shows.
You did well with this form and with listing a lot of mythical charaters.
It was fun to read
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Joan

    You're welcome, Yvette. The muses would be the ones who would remind you of these mythical creatures being of the same ilk.

You brought the fun with this. Comfortablely witty

Line nine was a teaser,
'Best not pursue...'
Lol! Love it.

Although,

If key had fell
From Pantalone
Out chastity
I, would not tell

You may be a nutty blonde, but you sure know how to have fun. I like this dancing CUBE16 format, Yvette. :) You had me dancing? singing? whatever, I was going with the flow your words. :) Loved it! Are you sure you didn't eat any of those magic mushrooms? ;) Take take woman.

Yvette,

We just can't get that fantasy out of you, huh? I think it's your first go-to option. Which I can actually understand a bit since this world has gone NUTS.

I can definitely see why some folks (imaginative ones) would rather create an alternate universe where anything is possible. --sigh--

I enjoyed!

You certainly stacked the cubes. Your imagination soars here in this poem rather delightfully as you artfully write of all the scenarios that may have taken place in order for you to find that key. Anything could have happened and yes that voting day was stressful.

I love reading anything whimsical. This was such fun. Quite a to-do about the key. Turns out to be faked by a tricky brother. Delightful. I especially liked the troll stubbing his toe and crying. Just imagine!

Wonderful, Yvette, and I don't have a six left. This is such fun and again this style comes up trumps (no pun, lol). I must go and find those books, they sound like a great read. I think there should be a law against having little brothers! LOL. Well done, my friend, loved this one. :)) Sandra xx

One minute in a mind like yours would be an adventure from which it would take me weeks to recover I think... Hahahaha! Whew! What a dizzying array of images (and what lovely artwork you chose -- perfect for your amazing poem!)
