If you haven't seen Pan's Labyrinth the movie you must check it out.
It is one of a kind. Anyway, here is my entry. If you aren't familiar with the rules of the poetry dice challenge, the objective is to write a poem using the images of each dice in the order that they are organized. The interpretation of using each image for each line is open but still must have some relative connection to the image on the dice. Here is the photo provided by @robyneggs
Deep somber slumber, Death's blinding kin, induces many sleep holds
Imaginative nightmares imprint like walking canes in fresh, deep snow
The coldness of the world burns a frostbite stronger than flames
There are entities who prey your death and want your soul to claim
"Drink the fountain of youth!" They'll coax you in darkness with lies
They'll lead you to tops of skyscrapers and drop you to your demise
Their extensions of black magic shoot out luminous orbs
This rabbit hole leads to imminent death, curving nowhere you're confused corpse
No matter which direction you go, this compass is barbed with war...
Thank you for reading this post in its entirety.
Special Thanks to @robyneggs for this amazingly creative and wonderful challenge. I'm really honored to be able to participate. She is helping to nurture so much creativity and growth through the poetry community and should be acknowledged. Best of luck to everyone's entries. Hope you enjoy my gif interpretations of the dice images, as well as my poem.

Hey man! I was just about to get to your post and reply back in steemit.chat, been slightly side tracked today but I'm going to check out your post right now. Thank you very much for showing up in the comments section, I'm glad you enjoyed this poem. I will add the poetry dice image from now on so people can see the challenge of the images I have to include in the poem in the order the dice were rolled and which images they landed on.

You're most welcome, it is well deserved to acknowledge your efforts. I'm glad you enjoyed the scenic environment I created, but I blame it on the dice lol. It just told the perfect storyline for this kind of poem.

Nice, as a suggestion, I've seen others tag challenges in contests to get more exposure and support. Maybe it could benefit yours as well. Oh and three entries is too many for me, expect only one for each week :) thanks for the info.
