Elves are the cutest

Except when they are evil

Then they are bastards

Tolkien's Elves could cause those dreams with their arrows....

Tolkien knew his history and folklore. Elf-shot was an old Anglo-Saxon medical condition that caused one to waste away. It was said to be caused by the arrow of an elf.

Who in shadow waits

In the corner of my room

For me to sleep tight

That elf photo is definitely going to disrupt my sleep tonight. It's the Poltergeist clown all over again. I didn't sleep for years after that movie came out.

Love that haiku! So creepy and foreboding.

If you meet this elf in dream land, lob its head off for the rest of us!

Oppressed by goblins

Elves long worked against their will

Then they organized

Sorry if this doesn’t make sense to anyone. It’s a whole thing in the serial I’m about to finish in a couple days and it is all I can think about when it comes to elves right now. Also, sorry for this little self promotion.

They’re small and ugly

And they wobble when they walk

Lack of elf-esteem

Welcome to Honeygloom’s Home for A-Typical Elves! I just opened it, thank you for shining a light on this situation. I had no idea there were sad elves out there. 🖤
