Story Notes: I've been delving back into poetry lately after being inspired by some good poets on this site. These are poems that I grabbed from some recent stories of mine. The use of "A Minor" is a key often associated with a somber, introspective mood in music. Most of the poems in this collection are somber except for one or two. All the Poems are Spuffy-centric. 

1. In My Bed by all choseny - Likes: 5 Comments: 4 Word Count: 76 Hit Count: 124 Published: 12/12/23

This poem isn't attached to any story. This was my first poem after a haiku I wrote for "Plenty of Fish." I minored in creative writing during undergrad (before switching it), but I used to enjoy writing poetry once upon a time. I guess the poetry bug has bitten me again. 

2. Unwrapped by all choseny - Likes: 4 Comments: 0 Word Count: 122 Hit Count: 125 Published: 12/13/23

This poem was featured in "Slay Bells Ringing" under the same title.

This poem is not featured in any story, but it may appear in one in the future.

7. In My Bed pt. 2 by all choseny - Likes: 3 Comments: 0 Word Count: 69 Hit Count: 120 Published: 12/15/23

So, this was the original version of "In My Bed," which is a bit naughty. I wasn't sure if I was going to add it, but why not? Spike is cheeky like that.
