A kind of poetry
So, I wrote a poem for 
spnapo.
I don’t like poetry, Meg says.
A poem, she says, has too many tangents.
It twists words looking for rhymes,
Tries too hard to be—plangent.
Like church bells.
Poetry reminds her of clamouring priests
in churches full of hate for her kind.
Women, witches, a hate-feast
Of bitter fools.
Cas says, in the beginning was the Word
Yeah, and they said the Word was God, she scoffs
So put up or shut up
Laughable lovers write poems, Meg points out.
She can’t afford to believe in love,
It’s not what Hell’s about.
Unlike Castiel.
I wield words as weapons, Meg says.
There’s a kind of poetry in that, Cas thinks.

And all kinds of stuff would be so welcome, not just traditional verse-y business but maybe a weird little drabble, and experimental bit of prose, a hybrid of meta and poetry, images (including graphics, because all kinds of images are fair game, heh,) something like a cento, or found poetry, that takes other works and uses parts of them; erasure poetry? Check out out the "toybox" on the comm if you like!
