Another collaborative poem as written by my current section of Creative Writing. This one is an exquisite corpse, lightly edited.
Sugar Skulls
Old grapes are sour but sweet.
____"Hella deep man." The cold cat said
smoking his own brain.

Meanwhile another weed tends the garden
____until its hands are bloody. Its glass eye
rolls lazily around its skull.

People tend to like sugar skulls but why?

____Too many questions and not enough answers
that don't always lead back

to the questions of life, a stream of endless heartaches
____cured with pills, for its better to taste mud
than to get it in your eye, a

deep dark hole into the soul where love or hate

____can be found at its most desperate
state and religion will both burn when the volcano
________erupts.
