I'm vegetarian now, but I have heard "horror" stories of prepared foods. You never know what the heck you are eating. Hopefully well supervised for cleanliness but it's a crap shoot. Marilyn

LisaMay it is a horror poem not a horrible poem. :) Talk about gross. You came out with a dilly. Now if after one bite you notice an eye looking at you... well would be something to see. :) Good work woman.

Gross, but well done, LisaMay. Good job with the contest prompt, the picture, the formatting of your words, and the message--as I said gross--but in keeping with the theme. Best wishes. Respectfully with Love, Jan

This thirteen-word poem, Horror Hot Dog, uses the correct number of words and finds that hot dog fingers are sometimes confused with hot dogs -- and fingers.

You certainly have used all thirteen of your words effectively to meet the requirements of the prompt. The poem is indeed horrifying, describing a scene straight out of a horror movie.

Ugh and double ugh - I may not be able to eat the Costco cheap hot dog any more. I'll be thinking of severed fingers. Was that a contest - I guess it wa s- good entry.

    Hot dogs are probably bad for you anyway, so I have saved you from an unhealthy diet.

    possibly true. One of our sons went on a field trip to a hot dog factory - I think he avoids hot dogs to this day.

Oh my goodness, Lisa!
Well, there goes my lunch choice today! I may never eat another hot dog...ever!
Well-played! Just the right amount of gore...with a touch of ketchup!

Best Wishes!

    If you ketchup with friends for lunch, I guess hot dogs won't be what you order.

    Oh, Lisa!
    You are a hoot!

    Take Care!

This meets the contest requirements splendidly as you deliver a technically sound 13 Word Poem on a horrific discovery. Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

This is the kind of horror story that used to happen in the 20s here in Chicago when Capone waged war against other gangsters. This was a "message" sent as a warning. Good rhyme choices. Rod

    Gangsters fingers, and ears and toes too I guess... concrete boots.... Capone and his lot were ruthless.
