True Horror Poetry

by Alexia Osborn

The Poets of Blood Bleed for a Cause Volume 1

For the love of horror, and the respect for, shall we say the darker arts- this is the foundation for which The Poets of Bloods castle has been built.

The casual, contemporary horror created today, although engrossing, lacks a passion due to societies over-stimulation in this genre; leaving a trail of blood-thirsty fans to dehydrate, while desperately they search for just a drop of terror, to wet their pallet.

Where else can true, raw, controversial, horror truly be mastered, if not- in poetry.

Poetry, through the ages has proven to be that which is socially taboo in outward expression, as well as excepted, and respected in various social circles. This fact is why poetry is unequivocally a suited design to present horror to those that fiend for night-terrors, during the waking hour.

On one stormy night in late July 0f 2009, two poets joined forces to search out others that share this interest. Madelynn-me, and WordSlinger. Conceived a union on this internet poetry website, OriginalPoetry.com, and a child was born. This childs name was Alexia Osborn-username Poets of Blood.

We hunted by night, crawling into poets pages, as they slept- searching for those that wrote with exceptional horror- flair.

The poets which have joined her family have proven to be some of the most masterfully talented, undiscovered, horror writers to grace the internet today.
