Until Buffy

hissed she screamed
(That's all I have for
now)

| I know that
there's a chip in Spike's sweet head.
I
smell a whiff of techno-flavored verse.
Who is
this Mister Verschip who appeared?
Is he a
who or something else
instead?

|
 |
 |
 This is a new clue

| We must transcend the
haiku's limits, form and verse.
(2) Our
host(s) want(s) verses in Shakespearean sonnets,
or couplets times 2.
(3) Leaving haikus
for sonnets form will take us through past the
portal wall
(4) Maybe I am wrong. It has
happened before now. What path am I on?

| No trickery at
all is here implied. What drama without conflict can
there be.
[couplet] A "BIG BAD" was suggested
(in a way). Our TEA TIME shifts as thoughts appear
each day.

| I hear a Mister
Verschip speak in verse.
But he is not a human. I
can tell.
Could he be vampire? Maybe something
worse.
Perhaps a thing that's come right out of
hell.
