Little doggie you
Are going to be killed soon
By a falling rock.
- --argiopeweb
The spikes were poisoned
And the poison was deadly
Get some intrinsics.
- --aioli & argiopeweb
The soldier ant hits
You will soon know what you have
It could have saved you
- --firemonkey
You insulted law
Now you have to pay the price
Wide angle death beam
- --aioli
With this wooden ring
I can cross the water, but
then an eel zapped me
- --Toni Keskalto
Do you feel lucky?
Do you want your possessions
identified, punk?

Dead troll in a lake:
Yellowing leaves on water
Stirred by its last gasps
Cherry blossoms drape the
Chest where the troll is buried.
Welcome to level 12.
The troll is slowing
Down, the nights are growing long,
It has turned to stone
Snow slowly fills grooves
burned above a hero's grave
mistyped Ebehlert
- --cjeris
I sacrifice much
Faithless Anhur gives me what?
yes, Ogresmasher
- --cjeris
A four-leaf clover---
and pray. Anhur seems displeased.
Goddamn Sokoban!
Quaff from a fountain
Wish for a cockatrice corpse,
Watch out for the stairs.
- --Temyx
--More-- --More-- --More-- --More-- --More--
--More-- --More-- --More-- --More-- --More-- Escape
You have turned to stone.
- --tejón
Scroll upon the ground
Erupts in an inferno
Dammit, my good robe!

Lichen, straight ahead!
You, needing sustenance soon,
Attack-- a green mold.

Curious and and blind
Her ungloved hand feels slowly
A cockatrice corpse
