For some odd reason or another, I get into these moods sometimes where I just get really morbid. Yes, with that comes morbid thoughts and evil tendencies. People get scared for my safety, although I know its just a phase that will pass. Anyway, here is the poem I wrote when in one of these moods I hope you enjoy it and leave a comment or two. If you like it, I will post another one as well.

Death Is my Shadow

Death is my Shadow
All falls Down
You see me there
You still see me frown
You know what I wish?
I wish to drown
In a river of blood
All my own
A river of blood
To whom I'm shown
A smile to my face
Is a tear to yours
Death to my shadow
Death to yours
Death to the sorrow
Death to the shores
Death to the Ice Queen
Death to me
Death to the Ice King
Wont you let me be?
A sign of sorrow
A sign of shame
A sign of love
Who is to blame?
Smile to your face
Smile to your soul
Smile to your heart
You make me feel whole

You know I love your poetry... awesome work. :thumbsup:

I'm a songwriter. I don't quite have a band, but at least I'm getting prepared. :shrug:

*Stupid note* I post a lot of my songs on Xanga... if you're interested, the link below is pretty obvious. ;)

I like that one, nice work, Des. As for myself, I've tried to write poems....only suceeded once or twice, and just barely so, imo. I write novels though, and if I get into a morbid mood....I just torture the characters. Either that, or I draw.....you know, those freaky pictures parents are likely to find lying around and start to worry about, eventually showing them to your head doctor and getting people to lock you away with. Drac, your songs rock....new one in your blog was awesome.

You are an excellent poet, Destiny. I've read one or two others of yours, and they are extremely good.

Never have
Never will
Cause' when I don't
Time stands still
And I like that.

the problem with poetry is it's inherent "gold clause". Poetry can never suck, it can only be misunderstood.

Frankly, I think that poem sucked. But I probably just misunderstood it.

Poetry should usually have:
1) Rhyme, and/or meter, and/or other sorts of distinct word manipulations. It should sound eloquent.
2) A subject matter that doesn't suck balls.

And follow the ultimate rule:
If it's going to be angsty you better make it sound really, really good or really, really insightful.

Words to avoid: death, blood, tears, angel, rose, sorrow, shadow, darkness.

i've sucked many thousands of nipples
i like watching some big titties ripple
if you suck on my cock
i'll come quick in your sock
and you'll end up a blood belching cripple

For an English class we had to write a poem about a "hero." I just wrote a short one about Vladimir Lenin... odd choice of a hero, but interesting to use.

I'll agree with you on that one Glitch, I do not believe I can compete with someone talking about sex organs, although, what would posess a male to want to do that. Maybe he should write another one. :badrazz:
