Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.
Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.
Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

An extremely equivalent exchange.
New post for new poems.
(The most positive poem I ever wrote? I wanted to get away from terrible, terrible happenings for a few poems).
A wild Control of Dialga appeared!
LEAFEON, Control of Dialga Chose You!
I'm Happy
I'm happy.
Though I do miss you.
I'm happy!
I'm surprised to find it's true.
We were together,
In both love and hate,
Until split apart,
By a bastard faith.
And the anger,
It filled me for days,
And there wasn't a death
That I didn't appraise...
But I changed, am
Different now.
And I got over it,
Moved on somehow.
Leaves surround me,
Grow around me,
On me and in me,
This forest found me.
And I fell to it,
I crumbled slowly,
Let it wash over me,
Take me in wholly.
Leaves within me,
I am the forest now,
New friends, new life,
I moved on somehow.
And I'm so, so happy here-
I just realised.
I never thought it would happen,
Boy was I surprised!
I thought it was a lie-
"All wounds does time heal"
Bow how else to explain-
The happiness that I do feel?
And I do miss you,
And will think of you always,
But here in the warmth,
Of long summer days,
It's so so easy to,
Become smooth tranquillity.
Wherever you are.
Hope you're as happy as me.
-------------------------
Coroxn feinted Leafeon! Control of Dialga sent out Magmortar! But what's this? A Magby and Magmar were also sent out!? How strange!
The Fires of Contentment
A child, a baby,
Born to flame.
Magby, Magby,
Calling my name.
But, so soon,
My fires died,
Ripped away,
Cried and cried,
Grew, and grew,
Over and over it.
Got bigger, stronger,
Powerful, loved it.
Expelling the cold
With fiery breath,
Attacked by strangers,
Fires dealt death.
Lived a life alone,
In a smoking crater.
Mother disappeared.
I did hater her.
Met with a girl,
Of the same kind,
Us too girls together,
We did entwine.
Together for a time,
We took up too much oxygen,
And before too long,
She had to hit the road again,
At this point I had,
A negative view,
Of almost everyone,
Would have hated you.
Sometimes kinda do.
And then you came,
And we battled,
And you won,
I was rattled.
Wanted to be better,
Wanted true strength.
Decided to go with you,
For a brief length.
And I grew to love you,
Someone to rely on,
Hatred being burned away,
Someone to dote upon.
You gave me a Magmarizer,
Traded me, me away.
Guess I never realised her,
Love of me was temporary.
Hated everyone again,
No one worthy of my trust,
But I saw my new trainer,
I must fight with her, I must.
So strong, so solid
I so wanted her grudging respect.
Fought with all my new-found power.
Hatred burnt out, admiration left.
And, like flame
Come from ashes,
Out of our battles,
Our clashes.
We sparked, and caught,
Caught aflame.
Champions now!
Everyone knows our name.
Such a life,
It does exist.
I am happy
With this.
-----------------------------------------
Coroxn feinted the three Pokémon in a single hit! What a display! But Control of Dialga is sending out an Electivire! But an Elekid and an Electabuz also appeared!? Weird!
Ampires
Do you remember,
When we were younger?
Everything so new,
I sometimes hunger...
For the days when
We would windmill are hands
To generate a current,
Till we were too tired to stand.
And we grew,
We held competitions,
Seeing who get hit by lightning at,
The path of least opposition.
Hiding in plants,
Till the people were gone,
Coming out then,
To an electrical song.
And remember the thunderstorms?
And how we would go out,
And think the lightning from our parents,
To them we would shout,
Until our voices gave out.
And remember those
Little yellow boxes,
Brimming with power,
Full of tiny sockets.
And when the magnets,
Passed over us,
The electrical units,
Beeped and buzzed,
And then we bigger,
Older and stronger,
Could fight harder,
Last a lot longer.
We looked kinda monstrous,
And people did stare,
But we laughed in their faces,
Cause we didn't care.
And we didn't let the current,
Bend us or break us,
And we lead our own way,
Didn't let us take us.
We never needed current,
To give us a home
Just windmilled our arms,
To make our own.

Control of Dialga is out of usable Pokémon!
Control of Dialga fled!
A wild Blazer appeared!
Blazer sent out Dialga!
But it failed!
Blazer sent out Arceus!
But it failed!
Blazer sent out Mew!
A Call to Fandom
Magical, unattainable.
The perfect original.
Forsaken, forgotten,
Unnecessary, provisional.
Ultimate secret,
Ultimate achievement,
Everyone love.
Then, bereavement.
Never again,
Featured but once,
Old and decrepit,
"Fetus," "Poxy", "Ponce,"
Created on a whim,
Thrusted into import,
A trick, a lie,
A troll's first resort.
The games,
They cheated me,
Ashamed,
Easy to see.
But not wholly dead!
Don't forget the random,
Assortment of beauty,
That is the fandom.
Games, dead, stale,
Too unforgiving,
Fandom, breathing, alive,
Totally living.
The subbers,
The spriters,
The coders,
The writers.
Those who take a blank canvas,
And make something worth seeing,
Those who make being a someone
Else's creation, something worth being.
Mew feinted!
The wild Blazer is out of usable Pokémon!
The wild Blazer fled!
Coroxn is victorious!

Darkrai and Cresselia on the way. Not to be selfish or anything, but the Poetrydex is very much my project, and I wouldn't really want to open the doors to anyone else, because then it becomes not mine any more. I'll get on the Shedninja straight away.

Chase-Hunt-Tire
You are pleasure.
Just perverted.
You are dreams,
Just subverted.
f
You are everything,
At which we excel,
Take a dreamland,
Turn it into hell.
And I heal the wounds,
Of those you chose to scare,
Some wounds are too mighty,
From an almighty nightmare.
Don't you see their bodies squirming?
Is there no empathy in you?
Whilst awake, full of yearning,
Suffering, now, is all they can do.
You are happiness,
Just corrupted,
All our light,
Interrupted.
Your nightmares trap them,
In a harness,
Now they're lost to a
World of darkness.
Healing your damage,
And tracking you down,
Proves too difficult,
You're gaining ground.
I can't abandon the chase,
And I won't abandon the victims,
So my own health suffers as I run-
Your nightmares I evict, them.
This task is hellish,
No relaxing,
Blood, death, blood, death,
Far too taxing.
My light isn't shining,
Too brightly any more.
I've seen so much sickness,
Way more than before.
Running, saving,
Tugging out my hair.
Hope to catch you soon,
End the Nightmare.

DARKRAI!!!
Pain Connoisseur
A pity you're too selfish,
To enjoy the wine of your pain,
Yours screams, suffering,
I long to hear again and again.
Fear is cheap, sharp,
Easy to get drunk on,
Hardest to enjoy,
The emotion most common.
Humiliation only slightly more subtle,
Just a tiny glimpse before intoxication,
Ah, but I do love the taste,
Of your sweet, sweet mortification.
Regret, a delightfully simple cocktail,
Reliving past memories with a delicious dread,
Regret, composed of two chief ingredients-
Longing for lost loves, longing for the dead.
Paranoia, schizophrenic, bipolar,
Dissociative Identity Disordered, if you will,
Sometimes delightful, something sweet within it,
Other times as rotten as happiness-such swill!
Pure remorse is by far the finest,
But drink, too much, and soaks into you,
Pure remorse, sadness, delectable,
Until you begin to feel remorseful too.
Terror. Omnipresent. My calling card.
The most refreshing beverage I make from you, by far,
Terror. Nightmares for the rest of your life.
Good luck healing from this teterrimous scar.
A scent, of pain, is enough to draw me in,
In your sleep all these and more I can brew,
Awake, nothing, wasting, pointless,
This is the only use I can find for you.
The best thing you could ever hope to do.
Refresh me.

The Signal and the Noise
Lifeless.
Dead.
Nothing-
This instead.
Somewhere else,
Being fine,
Different life.
Not mine.
Nothing here.
Blank emptiness.
No emotion.
(Except for loneliness).
Feeding. Hunting.
Catching. Dismembering.
All I am now.
(Except for remembering).
No inkling of a past life,
(Except when I do)
No memories, nothing,
(Except it isn't true)
Excitable, young,
Fresh, new,
Me, world, harsh.
World kind to you.
No thought.
Just be.
(But I
Remember me)
(Remember fighting,
Remember heart)
Different now.
That just the start.
(Sometimes stirring,
Sometimes...feeling!)
Fake, cheap,
Biochemicals reeling.
No answers!
No anything!
Just this.
This everything.
(No. There's...
There's more.
Something
Worth living for)
Lies!
It left you!
Split!
Bereft you!
(I remember,
Subdividing,
And then us,
Us colliding).
It left you,
Alone with me.
This is good.
Easy to see.
(Inside of me,
A commotion,
The stirrings of-)
No emotion!
No emotion here,
Dead now!
Alive once,
Dead somehow.
(But we could,
Be alive,
More than this,
Just survive-)
No more than
Surviving!
Just breathing,
Just thriving!
Emotion a con!
Only grief, dread!
Don't leave here!
Better off dead!
(Dead like this,
Dead like you,
You want me,
To be dead too)
Stupid words!
Cease blurting!
Making remember!
Making hurting!
(Memory, good!
The life you once lead!
Before you died, before-)
NEVER WASN'T DEAD!!!
(But this torture,
Isn't existing,)
Your words,
Twisting, TWISTING!
Life is full,
Of pain and pain,
Making...me...remember,
Again and again.
Life, rips,
And then some,
Better off dead,
Better off numb.
(But-)
You just thought,
...I! The body!
The body that fought!
Fought for this numbness!
Fought for this shell!
(This isn't living.
This is just hell)
Stop talking now!
...I! Make the decisions!
To life, to die,
Avoidance or collision
.......Hello?
(Going home)
What? No!
(Going....gone!)
Liar! Liar!
You deceive!
Trapped like me!
Can't ever leave!
My insanity,
Is a song,
Soon you'll learn,
To sing along.

~Facepalm~
Will fix, Chandelure to be done probably in the next fifteen minutes.
Mesmerise, Hypnotise
Easily
Hypnotised,
Pitifully
Memorised.
Mental weakness should
Drive you to shame,
Encaptured, enthralled,
By a dancing flame.
You don't have the
Wits to shout,
Even as I siphon
Your soul out.
And your own stupidty,
Stays my empathy.
For you I could never,
Have any sympathy.
Leaving my home,
Food easy to attain.
There was a time when,
Hunting did entertain.
When every second,
Could bring disaster,
Before this task,
I did master-
Is my intelligence rising,
Or the world's going down?
The answer is in the stupidity,
Of those all around.
But what if I stretched my sights,
To a more worthy dish,
Humans, to feast upon.
Oh, what a wish!
The delectable challenge,
Of fooling their minds,
A more intelligent prey,
I couldn't find.
Children at first,
To build up a taste,
The elderly, too,
Let them not go to waste.
Mother in front of children,
Children in front of mother,
Mesmerise, Hypnotise,
A joy like no other.

Hey! Chandelure turned out to be the 50th Poetrydex Poem!
To celebrate, I have graphs!
You people like graphs, right?
Anyway.
A chart for which Pokémon Generations are most Popular.
For those interested, yes, we have fifty poems-though some may have accounted for multiple evolutions, each poem only counted once, and in instances where the evolutions crossed generations, the Poem was only counted for the generation of the Pokémon it was requested in. Gen I and Gen IV are tied. How interesting. Gen V could be ahead, but the others did get a head start-the previous thread had an embargo on Gen V Pokémon.
Anyhow different graph!
Phew, was that chart hard to find! All the other chart makers had the words blurr together. But, anyway, for this, no matter how many Pokémon were featured in the poem, only one Pokémon's types were recorded for this survey. Duel type Pokémon caused one point to go to type. The graphs don't deal in figures, so here's some hard data.
There'll be a review, with two graphs, every twenty-five/fifty poems from now on. They provide some interesting data on the Favourite Generations and Types of tCoDers.

Sorry for lateness, must do better.
Reuniclus!
Conscious Entities
One cell,
Single, unified,
Passive, compulsive,
Always of one mind.
Never conflicted,
Internally, anyway,
Happy days
That I dreamed away.
And then, another,
Intruder, controller,
Who claims to have been here first,
It's in the eye of the beholder.
Hateful,
Arguing all day,
Hate you,
Just go away.
But here, it seems,
We will stay together.
Eternally arguing, bickering,
Forever, for ever.
What did I do
To deserve this curse,
And what did I do,
To deserve it getting worse.
Here we go,
One more evolution,
The same that brought,
The last revolution.
New rules,
Different game,
Couldn't learn
Put me to shame-
And then...
My body, to me,
Is totally unresponsive,
He gets to lead,
I'm just a subconscious.
And I can hear,
His mocking of my bonds,
And try as I might,
My mouth respond.
And what did I do,
To deserve this curse?
And what did I do,
To deserve it getting worse?
Bastard picked a fight,
Bastard lost dead,
Only one ticket per body,
Bastard left me here instead.
No moving, just seeing,
No living, just feeling,
No help, just rotting,
No thoughts, just reeling.
===================
Magcargo!
Home
From the highest perch,
On this volcano.
I can see for miles,
All the way to Sinnoh.
And all these places,
I've never been.
And all these things.
I've never seen.
And all the things,
I want to do,
I'll never get to,
This is true.
Because I harden,
If I get too cold,
I freeze, and I die,
But I'm old,
Old and tired
Of this place,
Longing for
A change of pace.
A life spent,
Inside these walls,
No light inside,
These cave halls.
And to myself,
Always lying,
So soon, I
Will be dying.
And I'd prefer
To die,
With a new world,
In my eyes.
This need for freedom from these walls,
In me it sears, stabs, pains, burns,
I long to finally feel a breath of fresh air,
And face my death on my own terms.
==============================
Pidgeot!
Mach 2
You know it's
Something else,
Risking life and limb,
Risking all of yourself.
But I just have this
Pathological need,
To go that bit faster,
To get that bit of speed.
To see the world go
Blurring right past,
Faster than planes,
Now that's fucking fast.
And so what if I,
Just might die?
Rather be dead,
Than unwilling to try.
And they say Mach 2,
Is supposedly my limit,
And I won't be happy,
So long as I'm within it.

Staraptor
Abuse and Misuse
When I was little you,
Controlled me,
All those years with you,
Took their toll, see.
When I was a bit bigger,
It got worse.
It was like your need for my pain,
Was thirst.
And from me, you drank and drank.
And I was broken, then.
And then you emptied your cup
And it all began again.
And I was in pretty
Terrible shape,
On the day that
I escaped.
I guess I had
Just assumed,
Everyone was
Just like you.
And then I learned
That this was wrong,
You, not me,
All along.
And I had family,
And friends,
And I never had to think,
Of you again.
Until you came back,
Looking for me,
But a different face,
You did see.
You tried to force,
Your missive,
But I was no longer,
Submissive.
And you saw the anger in me,
And then you tried to flee,
And then I drank from you,
What you once drank from me.
=======================
Unfezant!
Angry Evolution (Again)
I was peaceful,
Tranquil, I'd say,
Equilibrium,
The same every day.
Emotions balanced
Nicely,
Responses calculated
Precisely.
And I wasn't really happy
(Happiness was kept in check)
But at least I wasn't a corrosive,
Abrasive violent wreck.
I still don't know what happened,
How I altered so much,
It was like a metamorphosis,
An evolution or such.
It's like whenever I see someone,
Something in me rises,
I have to kill them, have to kill them,
Before they unleash their surprises.
I don't like how my
Emotions were rearranged.
I don't get how my personality,
Core was just magically changed.
It's like I'm a
Different person now,
And I have to live
With me somehow.
And I do find,
When I'm me,
Living with myself
Is anything but easy.
And when I wake up,
In a cold sweat.
Because there isn't a person I
Haven't made hate me yet,
I don't know,
Can't quite see,
If life is worth living,
If you're living with me.

Nope. Paul was that trainer who played the world like we all played the games (best EV stats, best nature, no love whatsoever). I know who he is, but he wasn't in my mind at the time. I just saw this clawed, hairstyled bird and thought to myslef "abuse victim". And so now this is a thing.
