dark poetry can always be happy all dark poetry is
is just a poem with a twist if it it has an exciting twist then it is categorized
as dark poetry it doesnt all have to be hurtful or wicked

So gripping.  I FELT silent screams as the vice grips around my heart.  And you must write.  I feel the words flowing into my mind.  Write.

To modulate and or distort that which is conventional reality is the goal of dark poetry

it's a cliche generalized category designed to put you in a lil box so that the closed minded can better navigate....

if you can make people cry with your words they might be dark. if you write in a dark room bleeding and burn 9/10ths of your work in your hands youre probably dark. if you dont understand why the genre "dark" exists you need to go back to wondering what dark means

Dark poetry comes from the dark, rotten piece of your soul. The worse the piece, the better the poetry.

indeed i agree in poety being dark and beautiful

black and blue
these demonic creatures
bursting thru
your doorway
busted thru,

changed my life

how about you

fully automatic pistols
pointed at you
rounds passing  by you
sound barrier broken too
sounds like the banshee
with whistle
when passes by  you !

oh you too?
that's cool
we should kick it
on the low too

smoke a fatty of some killer herb

i love hearing you say fuck the world
watch me" manically laughing" you'll make them deserve
you hate the people
but not the earth
we see the beauty and not a curse.
it 's the sad fucks with no  bucks
scratching nuts never getting cake up
people ,
they suck.

Making, twisting, riping are minds apart
so now ride and grind and were creatures of the dark
from actions
chemical reactions
alter ultimately changeing
everything
worldly obsessions of possessions of prophets
speaking inside of are mind and we can't stop it
were looking up at the sky but there's blood raining
down from it

you take my hand and we ascend
into the blood-soaked heavens
at thats  were we invoke are revenge
for the people of the world
and what they did.

Dark Poetry  is To Roam On Your thought
Things You Fell And To Get Your Thought Out
Dark To Light
Feeling
Emotional
Sadness
And Writing How U Feel But On A Poet Level

I've always taken Dark Poetry as reaching into the abysmal side of my psyche and pulling out what's there. Then I spill it on the page and call it art.

Dark poetry is, for me,
a little release
of a little angry orc in my mind.
He’s so mean and sour,
I lock him away.
There he stays. Mostly hidden,
but not always. He speaks when I cum
and during peak hour.

Grrraahh: look how fast that maniac drives,
Grrraahh: look how slow, that moron.
Why don’t they know how to flow, at the speed I go?

Fucking DIE DIE DIE, yea of wrong speed.
MY LANE, MY LANE, MIIIIIIIINE.
…I let him out when safe.
When no one can hear.
And just a little at a time.

THIS is dark poetry. A little release.
And ‘dark’, a little sign:
‘stay back, hysterical woman and child”
Because here, where its safe,
I might get right in your face,
beat orc-ey chest
and force, fetid breath, RIGHT up your nose
just like this:
GRRRRRAAAHH!

And then I’ll go home
and tuck the kids to bed
and say ‘goodnight sweet cheeks’
like I mean it.

dark poetry is when you can't pay your electric.
when you are trying to add up your bills by
street lamp, that's Dim Sum

I think dark poetry is incorporating an idea to a unique or probably kind of a negative situation.
