The Evolution of Darkness

Ia Ia Cthulhu Fhtagn - Armageddon Has Begun

Below the Sea of Galilee
In a cauldron of tar, and salinity
Where no life can survive
The dark evil incarnate did arise

From the mysterious depths
Of the bottomless pit it leapt
The Beast was not the metaphor
Of ancient gospels’ lore

But an immense physical manifestation
A mountain of all that is evil, incarnation
Each inhalation of his respiration
Stole light from Earth's horizon

Expelling sulfured air in exhalation
His putrid breath was an abomination
With his right paw he swept away Gaza
With his left he crushed all of Mecca

Then looking towards the heavens in triumph  
In a grotesque glare of defiance
He bellowed a hideous howl of victory
So all God’s children clutched their ears in agony

Except for the one, the one called Abaddon
Who greeted the ‘Living Darkness’ with adulation  
“Ia Ia Cthulhu Fhtagn,  Ia Ia Cthulhu Fhtagn!”
“My Great Lord, begin the Armageddon!”

To be continued.

this was my first dark poem that I posted here,the new poem will be added in a few days....





FUNERAL FIRE

 Shed the light
 Come towards me
 Invoking delight
 Dismantled dreams

 Shredded lines
 Shreds of paper
 Written ink
 On a wounded wall

 Turmoil tide
 Empty vessel
 Sank behind
 The sea

 I watch winters bone
 As dark lady rules her throne
 Welcome to my funeral fire
 Burn for me

 Burn me a birch
 Burn me a flame
 Whisper
 My name

 Now I am a bird
 Now I am an owl
 Risen from the air
 On my way now, nearly there

Thank you, my friends for starting us off

Land of Hell-The first ink i posted on DU

I look up at this night sky,
And wonder if this nightmare will ever end.
Or does my mind tell a lie?
Saying that all my pain will go away and my broken heart will mend.
When in this harsh reality, pain is all ill know.
Even when I die,
All it will be is slow.
~
It seems that I will never,
See the light of day.
As I  lay here in the dark forever,
In a realm of night I will always stay.
Cursed to see my memories painted in blood of my own.
Only hoping that they would sever,
And stop taunting me and leave me alone.
~
I stand  here in the night,
With tears falling from my eyes.
My only wish is to have a light,
To clear my head of all the lies.
In this land of pain, my screams are not alone.
The suffering, tortured, maddening cries of other fill the night.
From somewhere in the distance, I hear other dying moans.
~
As I walk around this hell,
The cries and screams multiply.
I would take away all their pain if I could only tell,
Why this madness and suffering is brought upon us so.
Maybe it's me.
Maybe all this pain in this hell,
Is all just because of me.
~
Ever since my first breath,
Pain is all I've known.
Maybe every soul  will live with pain until my death.
Those around my seem to suffer unless I'm all alone.
If I was to die,
To never take another breath,
Would all there suffering stop, or is that another lie?
~
In this realm of night,
Screams echo through the darkness.
I stumble aimlessly around this world without a light.
My wish in this hell would be to only have less.
Less pain and suffering, less tortured souls only wanting to die.
In this hell, pain is all anyone knows.
Until we die, this is where we will always lie.
~
This hell, this realm of night,
Holds all my life.
It imprisons  my tortured, tainted soul in its forever hating sight.
All while killing me with a knife.
All I can do is wait for death with a smile.
And lay here in this hell without a light.
Only till death comes, will I escape this utter denial.
~
When death arrives,
I will greet him.
I will leave this life for death, and maybe all these lives,
Will no longer be cursed with pain and suffering as I go with him.
And leave this world of pain as a better place.
That is what everyone deserves.
And when I die, I will seal away me secret, with a blood red piece of lace.

Awesome entry, Opal. Eagerly awaiting your second poem

Second poem for your comp...

PERSEPHONE


Through the half Dark
Comes the half Light
And the presence of the non existence
Darkness knows of reasons, to be here

From her folded hands,falls the crumbled truth
It`s the yearning of fingers ,losing their grip
These searching hands not to be filled
The loss lies empty in her lap

She reminds me of stillborn children
Which float in the lubricant water,
like swirling fishes in lunar oceans
It reminds me of the aching of age

Lifelessness is beyond forgiveness
Lifelessness is beyond the weight
Of the scar faced angels
Who,in this void of the worlds
Seek the dark night soul

No footsteps of mortals can be heard here
She breeds the bones and restores her skull
Death winds lull ,rise and fly
Through the half Light

Into the half Dark

My first dark poem on here is a collaborative piece. I don't suppose that counts?

How about your first solo dark poem?

removed

Excellent entries everyone. Keep them coming.

Rivers Turned Black (My first dark entry)

Sea marches swinging
Sand storms wrapped around
decaying villages,  
I once stayed in desolation
switching flanks,
wingless crows
saunter towards non existent planks.
( Pray your dreams away)

Reddish asphyxiated Water Angels
singing blurred rhythmic signals
dismounting lovers into completion,
whole bodies cascaded  
time in a space.
(Heaven sent messages to my phone)

Perfection came and shot resistance away,
imagery unintended becomes beautiful nightmares.

Phantom limb ( A new poem written for this competition )

A red headed stork shrieked ambiguously
into the abyss of forgetful dreamers.

"I once masturbated inside rocks crammed full  of
capitalistic phantom limbs,
cascading inside my irrecoverably debt ridden security"  

Sanity worshiping transvestites screwing the
high bishops face, until orgasmic vampires reached
a new neurological understanding of sexual desire.

"I once shopped for  battered  old body parts,
to add within my forest of neglected memories."

Her forest had been lambasted by a group of
zombie beavers bursting for sexual indemnification.
 
"I once grew one eyed ghouls from unwanted teenage
pregnancies."

(Life is a dark hole full of enigmatic sequences).  

Long Wait

A deep dark hole lays within my heart  
Slowly and painfully shredding me apart  
I try and I try to subside the pain  
But whatever I do, there is no gain  
I've been shot, stabbed and broken a bone  
But nothing is compared to being alone  
Every night i catch myself crying  
and every night i feel myself dying  
Too many wounds, too many to mend  
Waiting for my tainted soul to transcend  
Can't do it myself, forced an agonizing wait  
Sorrow every last second  
That is my fate


Lay With Me, My Love!

Always seeing you, but never me
Watching your life, so happy and free
Shadows I hide, waiting for you
Wishing you loved, just as I do
Razor cuts veins, I bleed for love
Never to know what she dreams of
So beautiful she sleep, I like to stare
But I never approach, I'd never dare
Waiting all night, until she wake
Watching her dress, I start to shake
"Why must I hide, she should be mine!"

Kick in the door, out comes a shriek
Forcing her down. so soft, so weak
Refusing to love, unable to smile
Tie her down tight, for shes in denial
Grip her neck, keeping her still
Her smooth skin peaking my thrill
Squeeze tight, sorrow in her eye
Pain within me, for she must die

Strip her down, gave her a shower
Can't help to peak, my beautiful flower
Pick out her dress, must look her best
Heart pounds, for I am truly blessed
Lay with my girl, forever together
Silent now, no need for tether
At peace now, shes at my side
In love at last, no need to hide
Slit my wrist, be with you soon
We can sleep forever
Under the moon
