Penny Dreadful’s poetic skills, once famous, now moribund.
I float in
the grip of
the thick
wavy plasma
of a stelliferous
sea
I stretch
episodic, sedate
‘cross the cosmic
vortex
The references to her current work, slight.
word not used: fend
Composed for mlmm wordle 131 (11.28.16) Using “penny dreadful” as a name, not a genre of writing, is a borrowed idea. Nothing original here, folks.

You are easily pulled into darkness by those words, but you can fend darkness, I’m sure.

Thanks. I should learn to fend off the darkness to be sure, :)

you may not think it all together too original – but you’ve used the words well – and the form works – adds to the idea of the “penny dreadful” being slightly “tired and overused” – so well done for stretching your creative ideas in the mind’s decluttering :)

My mind could use a good decluttering. I’m trying to write out some of the stories that clutter it now. The forever self-told tales.
