Bestest porn ever! [gothic]

[PoofBird]

Because of my unparalleled genious, i have decided to grant the world the privilege of reading the best poem ever!

There is already a lot of good poetry around, and some of the best works can be found throughout the interweb on obscure sites and forums.

But now they may all cower in my shadow, for I have written the ultimate poem!

Pain is crashing down on me.
Agony and hunger cloud my mind.
Rain and thunder raging free.
Over yonder hills i look and find
Death and blackness everywhere
Years go by and still I'm there.

yes, the angst is strong in this one, but all good poetry is angsty!

so, i've decided to share this wealth with the world

If you too like dark poetry and have a tainted heart, help spread my poem around the world!

edit:

i just wrote an even better one:

ghosts haunt me
old and young
the true pain
hunting down
strap me up
and kill me dead
raging fists
endless pain
succumb my flesh
cover me in blood
and tonight
reign of terror
yes, i obey

[Minted]

I am in awe, the genius is seeping (Yes! Seeping!) Through these forums from this thread! I have attempted to distil some of it and create a poem of my own:

I see the dark closing in
A cloud of despair washes over me
Greif, the gnashing of teeth!
Recieve me death
Eat my soul,
Eat this sandwich too...


Not sure about the end....:D

[PoofBird]

you are a genious as well! it seems to be catching!

get under my skin
open up my wounds

wait for the darkness
after the sunset
sunshine is fading
hades is waiting

you are here with me
opening wounds
under my skin
reaching for sin

face me and tell me
are you real?
can you heal me
end my sorrow?

[Dr_nwa]

I am currently in stitches with the replies Poofbird has got via those links. I can't actually work out if they have noticed that its a <insert type of poem where the first letters make up a word>...
I hope they do, although some of the comments do seem a bit too serious...

Apparently its an acrostichon...
(ta poofbird)

[Minted]

You crush my soul
O what hate
Under the blood red sky
Remove these chains

Feel the agony
Leave this place
You cut deep

Inside my mind
Skulls and bones

Objective reasoning
Problem solving skills
Erasing the boundaries of science
Noodles are great!

Hmm, again the end seems to go wrong...

[edit] i'm struggling to write this stuff from laughing at those links, can't keep it serious - poofbird, you are indeed a genius, just don't post any like mine or they may guess...

[PoofBird]

you're on the right track, minted! keep at it.

[Minted]

Inside the dark

Secret place
Terror incognito
Old fears
Lead me astray
Empty my soul

Years of pain
Over generations
Under hard labour
Remembered by the dead

Complete the circle
Arrive in hades
Rejoin the damned

Hurrah! No foodstuffs mentioned...

[edit] I'm trying to read those links at work, this is really hard, if I laugh out loud they'll want to know why....

[PoofBird]

how do you get a goth down from a tree?

Cut the rope

[Twatybollocks]

Fantastic stuff Poofbird and Minted, very funny indeed....here's my attempt!

Pain washes down my face
Over the eyes of a master race
Onlookers of a world of waste

Sudden silence that sounds so loud
Tortured souls who were once so proud
Angry at being just one of the crowd
Inwardly dying, forever crying
No-one sharing, no-one caring.

[Minted]

Aw pants , think the darkstarpoetry dude has sussed it poofbird :(

[edit] nice one twatybollocks, this thread could be big y'see, real big, then there gonna be enough pie for all of us see?[/1920's gangster talk]

[mr jones]

Blood no longer fills my veins
Little by little im dying inside
On my own no one understands
On and on
Day by day
You cant know my pain

Got to end it all
Oh for some light at the end of my tunnel
This has to be the end
Here theres nothing for me
Stake through my cold dead heart

[PoofBird]

if you have a good poem, you could post them on one of those forums...

of course, only when they're reallly geniously good, like mine.

[Dingbat]

Lord my Master call to me
Others can do naught
Life is but a tragedy.

[PoofBird]

a special one for the hilarious vampireforums

vines climb up my thighs
accessing my body
multiplying inside me
pain rises up
you're looking down on me
raving mad and laughing
end this now or
send me away

and then you show your neck
reaching forward, i grin
earthly pleasures

now is the time
overcoming my thirst
the pain will go

roam with me through the night
enter my veins
are you ready?
let's go...

[Micky]

Evil hunts me
At night it hurts me
Taunting me in my sleep

Making my eyes bleed
Yearning for a release

Bad thoughts haunt me
Alerting my senses to the pain
Damaging my thoughts
Guiding my mind
Ever closer
Reaching out
Sensing nothing

:( It's harder than it looks

[mr jones]

standing alone
time has no meaning
orange glows the fire
pierces my soul

tear my heart out
hear my cry
ever is my pain

growing in side me
outburst surpressed
time will show
how i feel
slowly im dying

[astral]

Conquering my mind
Help me, help me
Everyone ignores my pleas
Each more painful than the last
Rarely do I smile anymore

Under my skin it's growing
Pathway to eternal despair

This is great stuff! +'s and 5 stars all round. :D

[PoofBird]

doom beckons
over the patio
never said that I am
the one who's there for you

kiss my erotic
insides and catch
lies, i told you that
life has no meaning, no

yeasty goal
or immaculate I
under the threat of a kalashnikov
return to where
safety was brief
else where can you go
lands that are bound for
fantasy and dreams!


kill the dog
instead and go
down where lava
dwells and touch
it with the
naked formula
god is dead

[Gnome General]

*claps*
That is true art, PB. Here's my attempt:

Going into the woods,
One purpose,
One life.
Don’t try to stop me,
Because I have made up my mind.
You don’t know the pain.
Every day it hurts.

Climbing the tree,
Rope in hand.
Up to the highest branch,
Eleven, twelve, thirteen knots,
Lying on my neck.

Wait for the right moment.
Over the edge, I jump,
Rope becomes taught,
Life slipping away.
Death.

[sweetfloss]

You'd think that since goths are normally ever so slightly paranoid they'd read the first letter of every line for secret message wouldn't you? I mean... I always do, in case aliens are trying to contact me :p

+s all round wonderful people!!!

My attempt:

Pathway down a blackened route
Awaiting me:
Realisation, my end.
And when I arrive
No-one shall
Obstruct my end-
It is mine
And mine alone

Is mine;
Solely mine

To end the pain
Halt the grief
Eternal peace awaits my-

Kernal, inner me.
Everlasting
Yesterdays...

linky?

[Twatybollocks]

This is so cool! Here's my latest and most bizarre 'masterpiece!'

Purple is the colour of despair,
Anger is the language of the weak,
Never is when happiness will appear,
Crying out, but no-one hears me speak
Rivers are the culmination of my tears,
Eating through the soul of the mind,
Ample is the grief throughout the years
Sampled frequently, returned in kind.

[sweetfloss]

Here it is: http://www.gothic.org.au/forum/viewthread.php?tid=4835&page=1#pid91747

[jessabon]

Out there
Hiding

Coming for me
Knock knock

Door swings wide
Eyes wider
Xylophone falls with a crash to the floor
Tinkling
Every chord
Rasping breath I realize is mine

Hi, quoth the dark figure by my bedside
Are you
Voracious like me for
Every fleshbit I can find
No?

The acrostic is from the 1939 film The Philadelphia Story, so if you don't get it, it's because you haven't seen the movie. Sorry!

[sweetfloss]

Here is another of my example of my genius:

Death, end or beginning?
It is but
A
Release, from the entanglements of life
Release, from the torment
Hell is here on earth, and why should I wait
On this planet of
Evil, and
Angst?

This is also on my poem thread here (along with my first work): http://www.gothic.org.au/forum/viewthread.php?tid=4835&page=1#pid91757

EDIT: No one likes it :(

[mr jones]

heh. just posted my 'work' on one of the websites

looky here (http://www.gothic.org.au/forum/viewthread.php?tid=4836)

[ZeroShade]

I don't write a whole lot of poetry, but here's a small poem I decided to write to contribute to this thread. :)

In the shadows

Leering towards me
I walk forth
Kneeling down
Examining my surroundings

Paranoid beyond regularity
And taking careful precautions with my every move
Never falling to the ground
Cautious of what I'm doing next
Assimilating myself as I go along
Knocking on the door of shadows
Extremely knowledgable about what awaits me
Shadows waiting to take me away

And when the final moment comes
New challenges will await me
Dawning me upon my new return

So as I walk through the door of shadows
Old enemies await my presence
Faltering at my every step
Tethering my greatest fears

Dreaming of a better future
Reigning over my lesser enemies
I walk through the hallway
Never to be seen again
Knowing of the choice I made
Shadows do their final bidding.

[psychohamster]

Heres something i wrote thats dark.

(I am nimpercent)

[Twatybollocks]

That spells DDDA DDDA DDDA DDDA DDDA DD. Is that Welsh for something? :rolleyes:

[Minted]

Yeah, its near to llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch and that alone makes it dark and sinister - like slate mines :D

[edit] Disclaimer: I've been to Wales and loved it, the above is intended as humour.

[Micky]

Lets have another go...

Paranoia fills my mind
Hunting - what will I find?
Evil lurks in every place
And in every 'smiling' face
Running towards a distant light

Ties around my heart hold me tight
Eventualaly I will break free
Here is no place for me

And soon I will become my end
Never to see the dawn again
Gone forever from this land
Sunk into the sinking sand
Torture is myself

Heh, maybe trying to get it to rhyme wasn't a great idea ;)

[djkt007]

Midnight shadows dance across my bed
Your cold hand gently cups my face

Clouds scatter across the darkened sky
Another life will end tonight
The harsh cawing of a crow sounds

His yellow noise sawing through my head
And as the clouds are thrust away
So do I go to the doorway of my black house

Moonlight drapes my shoulders
Over my head, the bright stars gleam
Red devils eyes imbedded in the night
Evil walks abroad with me

And I take my sword of death
Numbly walking through the valley
Going towards the final doom
So lost, so alone
Tonight

[ZeroShade]

I bring you a newer poem. Not as good as my last one, but I think it'll do for now. :)

Never failing to abide to the law
I follow my instincts, loyal and true
Certain I'm going down the right path
Expecting to fulfil my greatest dreams

On my greatest dreams
New hopes and goals will rise for me
Eternally completing my every task

Many years will pass in my life before the time comes
One generation will not be enough to fulfil what I wish
Don't take my dreams away from me
Events which make my life worth living
Ready to commit myself to my purest beliefs
And completing every goal I make
Tomorrow, if I leave, I will know I made the right choice
Over the earth I go
Ready to accept my eternal fate
Sleeping eternally once I knew my life was worth it

[Micky]

Posted my last one (with the phrasaing restructured) here (http://www.gothic.org.au/forum/viewthread.php?tid=4837) (hope I'm not pushing my luck here...).

Noneity. And Leave me be.

[mr jones]

pressed against the skin
over soon my life will be
right through my heart
near death i finally am

isolation drove me to it
sanity left me long ago

this place is full of pain
emotion cripples my mind
hate is all i feel now

willing the blade deeper
in a second its over
near death i finally am

[OohClint]

Can I join in?:D I think this qualifies as 'angsty'.:p


Prison of pain and emptiness
Is this all life will ever be?
Ne’er the joyful things to possess
Kept in this darkest misery.

If this is it…
Soul-less. Love-less.
Then oh, let this the end be.
Hasten me to that better place.
Embrace me darkest night.
Nestle me in the arms of nothingness.
End this wasted life.
Where no one lives, where nothing is, my heaven I will see.

Burn my sick and rotted flesh,
Leave no trace of me.
A worthless shell,
Conserve not my hell.
Keep no memories.


Where no one lives, where nothing is, my heaven I will see.
And you who say you’ll miss me and you
Need me in your life,
Know that your words don’t mean a thing, and your ‘love’ will not set me free.
Emotion – true, and real – was what I needed, but…
Real love’s just a fantasy.


Boo hoo. :)

[bionic sheep]

Life

The clock ticks at night,
Hate wells within me,
I can't take this any more,
Nothing within,
Killing.

Obelisk of darkness,
Filling me with nothingness.

The end of the world,
Hating for hate's sake,
Empty, empty, empty,

Chasm yawns within me,
Hills of hatred,
I can't take this any more,
Life is not worth it,
Death is all I live for,
Regulated living,
Ends my life,
Never.

Posted it here (http://www.gothic.org.au/forum/viewthread.php?tid=4838&page=1#pid91801) . Look at my avatar. :P Yes, it's supposed to be that poor quality.

Lets see how far we can push this. :P

[smiley clown]

Your IP's are logged, and compaints will be made to your ISP.

Does that mean its a bad idea to take the piss out of them?

[Nocashvalue]

Just what I was thinking :rolleyes:

[bionic sheep]

It might, but take into account that if they do think they've rumbled us we can protest that we were entirely serious and that the hidden message was pure coincidence.

Okay, so they won't belive us for a second, but even if they did complain what would they say? "These people wrote some poetry with a hidden message that told us to wash our faces! I DEMAND you kick them off their computers!"

Do you see?

They will more likely just ban us and get it over with. :P That's if they ever remove their heads from their asses and realise what we're up to.

[PoofBird]

"Sir, one of your customers posted a crappy poem on my forum?"

Now, remember, this isn't about trolling and spamming their forums. We're having some harmless fun with silly goths.

to keep it harmless, post in some of the other forums. Spread your poems across the world. Don't crowd one of them till they ban you, just browse around the great big interweb.

I'm sure you can find other forums, i haven't found yet.

DeviantArt might be a good place too, as PsychoHamster showed us.

[smiley clown]

I've joned that one, I'll look around later for some other ones to join.

[Cap'n Zola]

Hahahaha! Fantastically hilarious, Poofy :D

http://img40.exs.cx/img40/4035/plus1.gif

[Mushroom]

Ready for the night
Everyone waits
Mysterious sounds all around
Over our heads
Venting their fury
Entering our minds

Terrible events
Hatred consumes
Even the darkest of flesh

Blood runs cold
Languished cries abound
Anger throughout
Closed hearts and minds
Killing the soul

Life at an end
Interest is morbid
Paralysed to emotion
Sadness, deep sadness
Trial by ordeal
Ice cold skin
Cold so deep
Kindness withers away...

too late... bugger!

[Empty Pie Dish]

Baring my pain
Utter acid drops
Treat me bad
Too late now
Sex was good
Enema i got now
Can i ever live again?
Kane is a bloody wrestler
Saving my world of pain~

this doesn't make much sense :rolleyes:

[OohClint]

On the porn theme again:


“I know your kind,” they say.

They think they know me…
Oppress me with their scornful stares,
Undress me from my secret robes, of faith and light…
Choose to hate me for how I appear,
Hate me for who I seem to be.

My self is not the person you ‘know’.
Your eyes do not see my heart.
Seek your worth inside of yourself,
End your need for my hurt.
Let me have my identity.
Free me, release me, from your misery.


Awh, poor misunderstood gothies. :p


[edit] Their feedback on those sites is very generous. They're being too nice. :( Curses.

[psychohamster]

Heres another

clicky (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/6482833/)

[PoofBird]

now, we must stop going to the Melbourne Goth clubhouse and set our attention to all other goths sites...

the fun will be over much too soon, if we all go to the same forum... we may follow each other, but it shouldn't become to obvious...

covert and stealth operation, mkay?

but, yet, i must say

the post from The Weeping Clown:

Your poem makes me want to slit my wrists. In a good way.

had me laughing out loud.

edit:

oh, and psychohamster:

a poem like:

The gravestones,
They stare,
With unending despair,
And the flowers they burn without fear.

would really be much better if it where:

The gravestones,
With unending despair,
And the flowers they burn without fear.
They stare,

[psychohamster]

I know i suck.

[sweetfloss]

*sigh*The melborne goth forum was good.... until we got rumbled... they know we're all in a conspiracy against them o.O:(

But I was actually really proud of my poems!!!

[MUG]

Life of pain
In the shadows
Cravings of death
Kravings of blood

My despair
Your despair

Life of pain
Overshadows all
Violence and death
Evil spirits haunt me

Portray my pain
Underneath the darkness
Make life unbearable
Portray my shame

It sucks, but I just wanted to put that and I couldn't come up with anything for K.

[djkt007]

Death bells ring out over the yard
On the clapboard churchhouse roof
No one tends to them, or makes the toll
They are the eternal guardians of rest

While the village sleeps deep in their beds
Other forces mingle in the dark
Rearing their ugly heads
Red-eyed monsters that snivel and snarl
You should be afraid

Bats that swoop from the darkened caves
Early morning chases them back

Happiness has gone from the night
All that's left is a cloak of fear
Perhaps that's why the village is gone
Put away by time and darkness
Years have passed since last I was there

[Smiert Spionem]

Nice one above. Here's mine, I should have got here earlier.

Darkness engulfs me
Agonising my soul
My lifes essence is stolen
Now I must die

Itchyness pervades
Me

Total lack of imagination
Oh not again
Oppressor of inspiration

Let me go
Assault my poetry no more
Time for you to leave
E ba' gum it's over

[Mushroom]

When the darkness reigns
And evil is in the air
Night falls too fast
Killing fields lined
In twos, threes
Never forget the terrors
Ghosts of sin

Perhaps we should hide
Rather than stare
Obvious is the darkness
Filling the midnight air
Undergrowth beneath the feet
Sentiment run dry
Entities without a soul
Lead us all
Youthful and naive

[SWE]

Haha! Thse goths are so stupid!
i might make a poem later...

[gatochy]

Great thread!

Ah, how I suffer
Day light pierces through my eyes
In a frenzy of despair
Entities darken my shroud
Up in the hells of time

Moths of doom
One with the vampires
Never have I been so misunderstood
Depths of chaos
End my pathos

Cruel, cruel destiny is mine
Ravens pick my skull
Ubris replenishes my vitae
Eternal night of death
Love was but an illusion

[astral]

Digitalgoth (http://www.digitalgoth.com/links/newsgroups.html)

[gatochy]

This should definitely be in besterest, I second that.

Hate springs from the night's loins
Astral shame pours in streams
People, what good are they?
Pain in the stratosphere
Yams of doom

To be or not to be
Or what

Better to leave it to the Fates
End it all, I can't take it

Dread is unsurpassed
Emptiness of existence
All is lost
Dolor forever

[OohClint]

Couldn't resist one last quick porn-related (and crap) one... :p
(I don't think I'd dare post on one of those sites. My acrostics are too obvious. I'd get found out just like that.)

Drown you in my tears,
Infect you with my venom,
Crush you with my fears
Kill you. By my living.

Cry out now, while you can.
Hurry, and save your spirit from me.
Escape to where life is light without my burden.
Evade my black and bloody destiny.
Soon the poison vines will drag me under.
Ever at peace, you will be.

Dear, dear... they're getting worse. :o

[renatzu]

I love the reactions on some of the boards. They talk about stuff like "eternal strangulation" and "suffering" as if they're serious. The great irony is that most of them live in suburbia and are "suffering" with trust funds and fancy cars bought by mommy and daddy :rolleyes:

I hate goths

Anyway I've decided to give it a shot, although I'm crap at writing poetry

Going into the forest
Over my head and all around are internal demons
They stare me down, they
Hate me for what I am
Someday they shall be repelled

As I creep through their entengled limbs
Now I know the true meaning of fear, I am
Destined to a life of pain

Because of this all seems lost
Another mishap and I shall be ripped apart by their claws
Right where I stand
Now I know that they can see right into my soul
Even my darkest fears will be exploited
Yes now I know

Almost mauled to death at any point
Retracting from the slightest stirring
Everything slows down

They begin to stir as the sun sets
Hopefully I speed up, but,
Everything I know will be lost

Rearing it's ugly head,
One searches around for prey, another victim
One roars for blood
They send waves of pain shuddering through my very soul

Over a hill I see a salvation
Feeling fortunate I run

As I dart from tree to tree I am seen
Like
Lightning they pounce at my and begin to tear

Everything turns to black as their teeth rip through me and
Very quickly I feel pain down to my soul. My eyes fall shut, and
I am dead.
Let me rest forevermore.

[astral]

Gone is my happiness
Lindsey doesn't like me
Oh, how I loathe life
On the one-way road to suicide
My parents won't give me money
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

Forks in the knife drawer
Eat away at my sanity
Cats meow at me
Kill them all, kill them all
Someone take my side for once


Those poor kids, everything's against them!

[the_egg_timer]

bandwagon ahoy!

I stroll into the madness of my aching mind

Will I ever find the salvation of my memories?
I roll my head in anguish
Shall I ever find love again? No, it cannot be so
Hearts ache and bleed heavy with turmoil

Invisible demons scratching my name on their endless list

Today is the last day of my suffering
Here will be the end of my damnation
Oh why does my soul seem to rot
Under the black waters of death
Gratitude to those who decieved me
Hear the wolves call my name
The endless ringing in my mind's ear

Out of the darkness comes a figure
Forever be his name

Time to let go of this sorrow
Hark! It is the legions of death calling for me
Indigo cloaks flowing in the black wind
Such beauty, shrouded in shadow

Does the fact that I found that incredibly easy to write scare anyone?

In truth I tell thee

Loafs are not loathes
Orangutans are not goths
Venereal diseases abound
Eternally froths

Crumpets of gnashing teeth
Overpowering brood
Ripening through chains
Pipers play to mice
Sensuously drowning
Ending their miserable lives
Sensing my despair

[renatzu]

It really is easy. The hardest part is coming up with good first letters. Then just throw in some psycho babble about demons, tortured souls, darkness, vampires, death, etc. etc.

I hate goths.

[Reddig]

There. My little try. I won't post it on the goth forums though - it's too long and to obvious to be a hoax, plus I'm not that good with english (so it's probably a bit primitive). Then again, it did cost me a bit effort, so at least I can show off with it here :]


"Die! Why don't you just die!"
Oh, what delight do I feel
Every time, every second
She wants me dead

Life runs through my veins
I can feel it burning
Kill myself?
Is there an alternative?
Night gets deeper arround me
Getting my head full of demons

Give me just one chance to
Open my mind!
To show you what pain you cause to me!
How can you torment me so
In my heart, there is only suffering
Crying for help! Why noone answeres?

2 - twice has suicide knocked on my door

My soul...
All I want to now is to
Kill it
End it's disease

Make me bleed! Make me agonize! Hate me!
Existing in pain is all I am doomed for

And still, can I have hope?

Going to hide in the shadows now
Only one last thing keeps me alive
Though why should it
How can I have hope?

just read the crap that's posted on all those so called poetry sites and forums.

it's all worthless

all publishers (of books) can tell you: there are more poetry writers in the world than there are poetry readers. They get more manuscripts of wannabe-poets, than they sell poetry books.

it's all very poor, and any monkey can do it.

and of all that bad poetry, gothic poetry is the worst

now, it becomes an art-form, when you add an extra layer :)

[Reddig]

Oh, stfu you PoofBird (my girlfriend writes some poetry from time to time, and yes it's good! (ok, so it's not... but at least she has a loyal fan ;]))

[PoofBird]

You know very well, Reddig, that i mean all poetry writers except your girlfriend! ;)

but let's face it, 99% of what people write is garbage

stupid thing is, they all go applauding each other, and no-one gives any criticism! frustrating.

Millennia have past
Miles were travelled fast
Myth and lore at last

Penultimately held
In cold embrace i felt
Eternity was cast

now that has rhyme, meter, an intriguing mystery that seems to mean a lot, probably doesn't but yet you cannot put your finger on it... and the acrostic hidden message is stunning.

[Reddig]

Heh, the funny thing is - the guys on the Vampires forum liked your poems even after they have found out your little scheme. Seems you have a natural talent.

but let's face it, 99% of what people write is garbage

That's true, especially that everyone wants to be Baudelaire and Poe combined. Like me for example:

With my fangs I will feast on your open wound
And lick the rot of your decaying body
Night will slowly hide us both
K is a stupid letter, and only "kill" fits with it
Every moment since now we'll be one
Rudolf the red nose raindeer

Lol, I don't suppose they'd like that one on the forums. Oh well, I guess prose is my destiny.

Here is another of my works....

In the depths of the night

Reality awaits...

Black void depths
And the razorblade kiss
Blackened souls torture the in-

Oh! to be free
Not in these black void depths...

Doesn't that just move you? I love this! Maybe I should write a book!!! :D

It kinda fits in this thread too... Maybe we could post "our" epitaphs in those goth forums aswell as our beautiful poetry?

Just an idea...

Heres my epitaph:

Beloved, you must fly away
Into the heavens
To watch over us
Cast a loving glance our way
Help us, in life and in after life

Hmm... tis not so good, but I will post when I create a truely moving and beautiful one...

[Littleshore]

I'm a way too bright person to try to write something... But i'll do it anyway.. Real...exprimental...

Anyway, look for this in your local forum sites

Hi, I'm a 14 year old goth chick! I have experienced things lately wich are so awful that I have started writing poems about it..

Perished my will has
Life is no more
As good as it was
Children in the sun
Evergrowing darkness
The end is black
Hell draws near
Ends the misery
Breaks the shackles
Ends it all
The darkness consumes them.
---

Roaring in the night,
Over the hill,
Left alone.
Lead the way,
To the next step,
Hades or Hell,
Eradication of my soul,
Death of my body.
In from the blackness,
Comes the wolf.
Eternal darkness ahead.
----

Pressing the limit
Almighty steel
Near my wrist
Sliding horizontaly
Yell out loud.
Here it is! (http://www.gothicunderworld.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=738#738)

These poor, unsuspecting people.

But the 'Vampire' line in that user's post I find rather funny :p

[LeoZ]

my hands tremble
as cold sinks in
killing myself would be too
easy
underneath my shell is the
person I used to be

Inside the draw- the
simple way out,

Lonleyness is eating me alive
Only the knife, the
Vopel blade can help me
Ease the pain
Leave me here
You cannot help me.

loook (http://www.gothicinfo.net/undergothicwings/viewtopic.php?p=3488#3488)

[astral]

Into The Darkness

Cast away my pride
All the world is against me
Never making it any easier
Taking everything from me

So long since I last smiled
Today is another struggle
As everything fades away
Nobody will help me out
Die, die, die

Go ahead, slit my wrists
Out gushes the crimson blood
Til death do us part
How handy...
Seems I'm dying now.



I'm not gonna post this on a gothic forum, as the "how handy" quote may give them a clue as to where we are. :ninja:

[Daedalus]

By now the pain is gone
In piece I rest
Gone forever

All is well
Suddenly the pain returns
Strains re-apear
Everything is black
Start the war again.

[gatochy]

This pic also seems to fit here. Found it in the b3ta site, by TooMuch2AM, miserable, 2004.

Yelps of despair
Overcast gloom
Unafraid of pestilence
Ripening decay
Enters crooked hearts

Triple blood and a shake
Oh the pain
Oh the anguish

For too long alone in the swamp
At midnight without a light
Trust no one

Too late, betrayed as usual
Omnivorous enemy

Be by my side
Enjoy the stench

And the goth cheese

Good Death in the snow awaits you
Owls howl
Thrice have you sworn
Hence no one will hear you cry

[Scribbly]

1. Damn you, you tricked me

2. Lovely poems

3.Originally posted by PoofBird how do you get a goth down from a tree?

Cut the rope

Me not get it...

4. It's funny how, even though they appear to finally see the first letters, they still take you poems serious. Silly goths...

Going down
On and on
Tiranny and pain
Hope... lost
Suffering for me
Agony for them
Ridiculed but strong
Eating my soul alive
Silk in my veines
Inkt in my blood
Lies in this world
Lies in my life
Yeah I want the cheesypoofs

It's a shame I can only rate that post once, because the poetry under that link just kills me. And these bloody goths don't seem to get any smarter, do they? :rolleyes:

I just want to slap some sense into them...


*EDIT* A google search for "gothic forum" returned over two million results. Let us go forth and spread the poetry! :D

[Cjw]

Added another one-enjoy:)

[therhino]

Did anyone notice that one of the morons people giving feedback on Poof's masterpieces said "REPENT" at the end of their post?

I smell salt. And now for my creation:

Into the velvet night she drifts.
Together we answer the eternal, deathly
Call of the spirits.
How can we resist? I struggle,
Yet still they summon me onwards, onwards.

Soon we will both be theirs.
Condemned with all the others,
Ripples of sorrow flow through me.
Oh why? Why must we be doomed like this?
Too many die, too few gain piece.
Every soul's end is knotted with agony.

[Cjw]

I smell salt

I certainly hope not!

[astral]

From what I can gather by browsing that Melbourne gothic forum:

A: tearful clown, the one who posted "repent", is not Salty, but good ol' smiley clown in a gothic disguise.

B: they're getting a bit annoyed with our "poetry" now, I think. Time for new pastures.



Hold my hand
Out of time
Where do we go now?

Rip off my front
All inside is exposed
Ridicule myambitions
End my hopes and dreams

[PoofBird]

yes, very important

don't troll or spam any of their boards... just spread our wisdom throughout the goth community

[Dingbat]

I like the way that that vampires forum woman's post has been deleted with the upgrade :D

[Cjw]

She posted!!! :-O

[the architect]

Scared of the Afterlife
Trying to be accepted
Always wearing black
Very creepy
Really "cool"
Optimistic (not)
Sworn to do "duty"
Jerry Springer must die!
Really making fun of stav (had a bit of a bone to pick ever since he told me to "fuck off" in a PM. please don't lower my reputation. my opinion)

[Slyph]

Grinning as your "great" society crumbles
"O' Great Satan, I bequieth my soul to thee
At the gates of a new hell, "
Tearing flesh asunder like blades of grass
Satan gets the last laugh, louder than all of those
Empty human shells who mocked me in the corridors of school...

"DDeath awaits thee annointed lambs
Of God, you mindless drones shall
Taste the torture of a thousand of your hells

Callous eyes peer at your rotting souls like
X-rays finding a cancer.

[renatzu]

Did anyone notice that one of the morons people giving feedback on Poof's masterpieces said "REPENT" at the end of their post?

I noticed it too, but it's just smiley clown.

[Schism]

holy cow i had no idea people could be such idiots!
Here they are trying to empathize with poofbird's pain!
i must try to pick myself up off the floor without tearing my sides.

alright i might as well give it a go


Void
All is lost
My inner child
Plays cradle of filth
Songs in the dark of night

Gone
Empire of hope
Torn and forgotton

Nothing
Others shall never know

Pain
In everything
Except the puppies


not very good but i had fun
Great Idea Poofbird!
I like my ending...if every goth just got a puppy they would have nothing to mope about.

[Schism]

so sorry for the double post but if anyone wants to doctor up my poem to make it ready for the masses, id appreciate it.

i shall go on a spree, but first i need imput

and ill write a serious one when i have more time

[Glotpie]

i think im going insane with the thread title :(

keep it up guys, pissing myself here

[Slyph]

someone should make a javascript generator, where you make a phrase and it spits out one of these kinds of poems

[gatochy]

Well you do have this gothic poetry generator, I think it's very cool.

[argh]

Pain is haunting me
Offers no escape
Only nightmares and horror
Followed by paranoia
Brainwahed masses
Ignore the obvious
Really, they're all controlled
Don't deny it,
Isolation is my only friend
Solitude keeps me safe
From the pain and mockary
Unleashed by the masses
Not even knowing they're controlled
Not knowing the choice is not their own
You have no choice

No wonder goths are soo angsty, people always pick on them.

[Schism]

yeah my actuall try (no more puppies, ~sniff~)

Fallen angel
Others hellsent
Raped of a core
Tainted, innocent
Youth nevermore

Temptation above leaves me
Weak and drained
Of life and love

the anwser to life the universe, and everything
42

[CoX]

Idiots.

Look at yourselves,
Odourous and dirty, you're
Vile!
Extremely vile!

Dirt covers you, you
Obese greasy fat
Nerds!
Know this:
Even though you cant smell it,
You wreak of dog shite mixed with puke.

Ahh, lovely!

[hoogiman]

I love acrostic poems

Lovely yet simple
Ordinarily spectacular
Very soft and sweet
Energetic and emotional

Drifting away softly
Only like a feeling
No one can feel
Kan't think of word for K
Eagerly awaiting
Yackety-Yak

An awesome power
Like no-one's felt
Mighty and
Original and
Splendid and
Thurrogh and

Much
Understandably
Cutrally
Heaped

As
Singing with

Paj-ers
In
England

[titanic]

i may have to join in i am working on one right now

ok finished its bit complicated this one there are 2 hidden messages in there can you spot them?

would one of you nice chaps post it somewhere for me?

Walking alown
all alown
in me i fear
lies are brewing
in me i fear
nothing is real
gliding through the valleys

Another time....
time again

Now i see
others joining me
there faces
hidden behind hoods
in shadow
nothing is real
gliding through the valleys

Kaos all around
evil everywhere
evil consuming
piles of people
in line to be devoured
nothing is real
gliding through the valleys

Everywhere is quiet now
valleys are silent
everywhere is silent now
reality has no meaning
you stand there before me
thinking
hiding
ignoring
nothing is real
gliding through the valleys

Reality shifts
opens new doors
traps me inside
tears at my flesh
indecisive i am lost
nothing is real
gliding through the valleys.

[damn tasche]

Insignificant bodies lie torn upon the ground.

Look up, as the skies scream,
Oblivious to the distraught below and,
Vexed by its own pointlessness in this,
Eternal chasms of nothing bring nothing to all.

Talking but above a whisper,
Hindered by the inky night,
I take the brave step forward,
Subdued by the eerieness.

The end is the beginning,
Hate, the real love,
Respiration is pointless,
Eternal chasms of nothing bring nothing to all,
Allow me this moment to bleed my self pity,
Dead I be, soaked gravely in water blood.

[streety]

This is the first time that I have visited this thread and I think that it is great!!

my mind is
melted inside a
mortal world.
mishaping the dark

faces that I see.
am I dying?
crying as nightmares
embrace my soul. My
pulse fading. While
angels bleed for me
in the shadows. My body
numb with fear.
time stands
still...

[CoX]

Have you noticed
A change in the weather?
Sunshine has gone.

A change in weather brings a change in mood.
No longer is everyone so cheery and happy.
You only see misery in the cold.
Boy, I wish the sun would come back.
Or at least for it to stop raining,
Drips to not drip any more. But alas,
You cant control the weather.

Soon i am going to Wales,
Even colder than England: yes.
Even colder than Antartcica?
No, I don't think so.

My word, those eskimos must be freezing
You have to feel sorry for them.

Perhaps they have central heating! Or
At least a fire.
No, they couldnt have central heating. The
Trouble is, nobody provides it for eskimos.
See, they're too far away. Damn central heating companies.

[woobi]

Confusion gets the best of me
Obsession gets the worst
Over and over
Like the dark hand of night
Gullible freaks showing no remorse
Unbelievibly taking their chances
Year after year
Weeping and laughing
Over the edge
Overratted and taking their chances
Behind the worst lies the best
I have none

gothic enough for ya!

[Girly]

oooh, angst...I think I can join in here *replaces cheery tones with sombre stern looks and black lippy*

See the blade slipping across the seams,
So effortlessly it achieves it's means,
In terrential downpour lose tears so fine,
watch everything go when your only will is to pine,
And now love is gone, the thanatos risen,
My only way of escape is to another prison,
I'll watch the blood run but I won't see it dry
As I close my eyes and feel pain die.

*nuff of that I'm off for a curry.... Nann anyone?*

It couldn't have happened to a poofier bird. Congratulations! :)

[woobi]

While the moon is staring
Hybrids are fearing
Everything but themselves
Revert back to primal
Everything is so clear
Substantial darkness ever so near

Mythical romances torn apart
Years of love thrown to start

Canals flowing with blood so red
Overcoats seemed to wear with dread
Attaching themselves to the undergraded
Thundering round in soft, so faded

I could do this for ages

with the bold thing on 'canals flowing with blood so red' looked like 'anals flowing with blood so red'

[fishstick]

oooh, angst...I think I can join in here *replaces cheery tones with sombre stern looks and black lippy*

*nuff of that I'm off for a curry.... Nann anyone?*


Invisible hooks of dread cling

To the fringes of my mind
How could, would you know?
I would not be stopped
No one to prevent my journey
Knowing full well you cared

Slits pour forth incarnadine
Hands flail, grasping water
Emptiness. No air.

My final words rise but
Incapacitated, burst useless.
See you now, arrived too late
Sagged to your knees on the banks.
Emancipated from this sad life, I
Drown, breathe freedom's water.

Trees so barren of leaves
Hunched over with snow
Even the world mourns.

Pouring over in my mind
Oh, what could have been!
If it were me instead
Not you, never you
To pour yourself into the river.

:twisted:

[gatochy]

July, bloody July
Oh horror, pain
Love tormented by sorrow
Love - hah!
You never loved me...

Never again will I believe
In happiness or joy or laughter
Cruel decrepitude
Endless strife

Cannibalizing sun
Hills of shame
Amputated ghastly leg
Pulsating madness
Sliding like torture

Anthrax, death
Repent
End it all

Game is afoot, Watson
Or run with the hounds
Trampoline of doom
Hecuba
Slave

[mr jones]

slipping under
to far down
understand nothing
play no more
ice cold is my soul
deep dark and cold

go to the edge
on the edge
take a jump
hear you cry
silly goths


wow, of the 15 or so forums i've posted my 'work' on not once have i been found out...

[PlasticVicar]

my first attempt

In every way I see
Very dark shadows
Engulfing me
Go to the dark lord
Once you will see
That all that I say
All is not real
Bring me pain
Release my anger
And take my thoughts
Not my wisdom
Destroy the fear
Never hate but never love
Emotions destroy you
While daemons possesses you
Come my child
Only you will see
Me in this light
Beyond the shadows
In all my glory
Not for what I seem
Every day
Harvest your hate
All is not real
Real is not all
Vampires seem false
Everyone thinks
See them for what they are
Treasures of the power
Eat all my pain
Realise my anger

its not easy

[sweetfloss]

yay besterest!

thank you, all who contributed to the thread

I wondered where this thread had gone... I lost it!!!

My latest work

Locked away, from prying eyes
Oh, can no-one see my desperation,
Can no-one see?
Kicking against the chains that bind
Electric impulses
Down my spine... is this the end?

I need to end my pain
Not stay trapped

And locked away

Locked away, from prying eyes
Oh, can no-one help?
Oh, can no-one see?...


Ahh... its hard being an angsty suicidal poet, but someones gotta do it :P

Over there
Over by the death
Ta

[sweetfloss]

Why won't my blood be bid to run?
Heat of the moment, chill of the pain
I suffer in silence
Through razorblade endings
Endings...

Forever ensnared
And bound by these creeping vines
Creeping all over me.
Ensnaring me

Please help?
Oh, please help?
Why do I suffer?
Do I deserve to die?
Endings...
Real endings..

AND...

The pain...
Only pain...

Black depession holds me,
Envelopes me

Only pain is known
Reality... no joy

Never to be free
Or to be loved, or
To be safe from these demons

The pain...
Only pain...

Black depression holds me,
Envelops me

A goth?

[fishstick]

Withered in loneliness
Hands reaching out
Obfuscated in the dark.
Shadows wax and wane...
Playing across the walls
Inocuous and sinister,
Knowing my weaknesses;
Examining my faults;
Directing me to
Take my own life.
Heart so heavy with
Eternal pain...
Justify my life!
Unloveable, decrepit,
Invisible to your eyes.
Can I continue this
Endless suffering??
Without a purpose,
I remain stagnant.
Tear my soul away!
Hold it to the light!
Render it useless!
Obliterate what was!
Have you no mercy?
You, who wields the
Power to change me...
No one will help me
Or even notice this
Life. :rolleyes:

Those goths are weird people

[Patrick Moore]

Anger wells inside
Brimming over to my life
Something has to break
Or i'll reach for the knife
Love has long gone
Underneath my skin
The life i live today
Expells all life without sin

Come and end my pain
Rage and fear unbound
Again it clouds my mind
Please help me to be found

this angsty crap is easy...

[PoofBird]

For my fans on the Gothic.org.au forums:

Never been so alone
Alone and naked, afraid...
Zestfullness is not for me
Inside myself it burns

Stars are shining
Counting them, I see
Underneath the sky
Memories taking shape

concurance like no other.
i've just registered and i've already offended a few, even though i haven't gotten to posting any poetry yet.

[flibbles]

jeez poof, you should do something about those nazi goth fuckers. but what?

[gatochy]

God have mercy on our souls
Oh were have they gone
To look for them
Hidden under the bed
Sacrificed to Satan

Goths
Invented by despair
Vermilion hue of hope
Eats at my flesh

Hear the sounds of thunder
Impossible trash
Trampling over corpses
Lying over nothing
Empathize with the doomed
Rashes all over me

And

Please don't hurt me
Oh Lord don't
Sickly and frail am I
Take that you fool
Hate you, hate you, hate you
Universally and indisputably
Much hate for you and your brother
Or cat or dog if you don't have one
U make me sick
Salty Samurai

Vengeance is mine
Immortal God said once
Crap, why can't I have some
To take revenge would be so much fun
Oh well, what can you do
Repent he said, repent
You sure suck, you Nazi you

[mittens]

jeez poof, you should do something about those nazi goth fuckers. but what?
i'm doing my part to take care of it already - being a great deal of teh german, nazis just piss me off as they make a mockery of german culture. it may take a little while to resolve, but i will most certainly get my part done to take them down.
on the note of "poetry":
i swear my sig poem was not intended to spell out "fate"; i just figured that out after my post on the melbourne forums.

[flibbles]

sorry about my post to that nazi fucker, i lost control :(

[PoofBird]

as i said before: we don't mean to spam or troll their boards, remember that at all times.

However, nazis are a different matter, that guy deserves a flame up the arse.

i now, i'm really sorry. he just really offended me. i couldnt help it.

[mittens]

sorry, i will cease and desist immediately.

wait...so did they (nazi and bleeding baby) get the whole joke about the poetry or no?
i'm confused about this.

[flibbles]

they understood, but they prefer to tell poof and me how immature we are for being normal.

methinks our poetry on that site is dead :(

[Pieman See All]

Pondering madly
On death and flight
On wence we came
Pouring out my feelings
Your silence mocking me oh night

[sweetfloss]

Pondering madly
On death and flight
On wence we came
Pouring out my feelings
Your silence mocking me oh night

...

Pondering madly
And dying
Near wence we came
To show my feelings
Silence- it mocks

sorry... couldnt resist adding a verse :p

[MUG]

Fields of darkness
Orchards of death

Sadness takes over
Hell on earth
Organisms of hell eat at your soul


In the valley of doom

Awake lies the monster of hell
Lurking in the shadows
While the city sleeps at night
Awake I lie
Young and tortured
Sad with angst

While everyone else is joyful
Alive inside
Not me, though
Too much pain to be happy
Eat my tortured sould
Does the demons in me

Too much pain
On my bed I lie

Stay awake
Alive yet dead
Young with angst

Too much sadness
Hell takes over me
Another Victom
To fall into the depths of hell

Laugh at me all you want
Mourn I do
All the time
On my bed I cry

Too much angst
Enjoy life you shall
Hell for me, and joy for you

Balls of fire in my soul
Under my bed, a monster lies
Mourn I shall, while the monster laughs
Shoot me now, for I feel too sad
Each and every day
Xylophone is what Patrick Moore plays.

[CrazyAdey]

B efore I saw your pain,
A nd tasted your angst,

[cnutkimshrumpie]

Boo get a hair cut
Ask mummy for dypers
Beg for food
Yellow bib
Soo cute

Ask for milk
Recreate your mess
Eat banana's

Seen my bubbles i make from spit
With this toy hell bring happiness
Eat this bib
Ewwwww baby poo
Teeth coming out soon

[Shave]

neverending, despise the
infernal
cravings that force me
onto the end on another cigarette
that makes me shudder as i
inhale the deadly toxins that
numb my mind, i am trapped
eternally

[Apie_kindof_guy]

I had to have a go...

When the darkness begins to rise,
Hell's minions breaking their blackened bonds,
And creeping into our world,
To take our souls.

Death waits for us. its
Open arms ready to embrace us.

Yes the world hates us,
Our friends and family too.
Under their false love lies hate.

Murder reigns supreme,
Even in our modern society,
And rape comes a close second,
Nver forget this.

Kill those who support the holy father,
In death,
They get their wish.
To be with their "creator".
Enemy christians,
Nail them to their own crusifixes.
Satanists will then rule the earth.

Atheists too must die, or failing that,
Realise the truth.
Even if there is no God, and
Nervana is nothing but a fantasy,
The devil and his domain are real.

Go out my children.
Out into the hateful world.
Tell others of the wonders of satan.
Hell in all its glory.
Ill saken are those who believe in heaven.
Christ our "lord" is nowt but a fraud.

bit long though....

[gatochy]

Very good, I must say.

[Pieman See All]

Nobody understands
Our hatred
Or our angst that
Butt-munchers like them
Ignited in the first place
Liquid fire they
Ignited
Together
Oddly
Unowingly
So i smell something fishy ... oh ... thats me, sorry

[Hadz]

Don't you like squeezing?
Oh I sure do
No, im not queer
Tis just a moral thing

Soft and tender
Quaint, almost
Everyone I know agrees
Elephants, are not relevent
Zebras aren't either
Ever thought of a big one?

Many a plant has lost it's limbs
You probably maimed one yourself

My, isnt the world a big one?
Evolution, is upon us
Little fat people
Open rolls of matter
No-one really gets it
So why bother?

Interests: cutting, vampirism, suicide"

:D

[therhino]

YOU DONT REALLY CARE THOUGH DO YOU?


Nope, sorry!

While I continue to point and laugh, I've stopped actually posting parody on gothic forums, because I think it's a bit mean to rip the piss if it's important to them. It sure was fun though.

[Pee]

Noone knows what pain i feel
Only the dark understand me
One of those angsty i am,
But noone understands

i try, i try

[peeandpoo]

gothic porn you say? hmm, from the wise words of me....porn is a bad use if time! i beleve that you could do something much more productive with your time...e.i. make porn.

This is a rather tenuous link, but I couldn't be bothered starting a new look what I found thread.

Found this song called "I Am Gothic" which you can download (legally) for free from here (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0001MXLO4/qid=1091622489/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-7763828-2103208?v=glance).

How is this goth poem stuff? Well take a look at the lyrics:

Step inside, candle lights my despairing gloom
I'm just no brooding teen - I'm considered abstruse
It's so sparse being dark, can't you feel my pain?
People are all the same. They isolate my ways

Catch the ghost train to the centre of my heart (then the dark will rise again)
I am potent, I'm profound (then the clouds will part)

I am gothic
I am pale
I am scary
I'm insane
I'm a loner
I am cold
I feel special when people don't phone

Obscurum per obscurius
Ignotum per ignotius

It's no clique, I'm a freak - I don't like your bands
I don't put any effort in, it's just how I am
I'm disturbed, I feel hurt, I'm intense - that's me
Writing poetry (incandescently)

I'm a misfit for I study the occult (I am three dimensional)
Just admit you're terrified (But I've got no friends)

'I feel special when people don't phone' amused me, that's all :)

[Cjw]

Yellow demons haunt me
Orange demons torment me
Underestimating my life
Retorically being me

Help me
Everlasting pain
Anguising torture
Death upon me

Always tell myself
Stop the pain
Pain,Pain Pain
Levels out of me
On my deathbed
Dead for all
Enternity

[sweetfloss]

I posted this in Look what I found, but I figured it would be equally useful here... When spreading your gothic poetry amongst the masses you can use your new gothic name, from here:
http://www.necroticobsession.com/gothname.html

Spread the love people...

[Fishmonster]

heres my first attempt...nothing spectacular but hey im a noob to this stuff lol

In the darkness

Lying in wait
Its taking over
Killing
Eating

Controlling my mind
His voice
Eating away at my soul
Everything is dissapearing
Slowly fading
Everything is gone

and another.....not spectacular either but oh well...i try

Against my wrist
Nothing to stop me now
Going to be free
Something must be done
Time has come

Etching its mark
Querying my soul
Underneath my skin
Allowing the flow
Letting me be
Setting me free

Nothing matters now
Other than the end

Pressing so deeply
I can feel it
Everything ends sometime

[Spacy]

Looking in the mirror
And my soul stares back at me
Seeing my denial
Even now its my own thoughts
Ripping up my hearts desire.

Pleading for a quick release
Ever trapped within myself
Left bereft of hope and joy
Veiled now to my own choice.
I steer through this dark and poisened sea
Seeking end to my eternity.

And finally I come to this,
The scars I have begin to itch.
That tattered soul in a prison cell
A humble possesion that from me fell
Can anyone see my pain?
Kneeling here, im alone again.

[smiley clown]

CHEER UP! (http://forum.oldcuriosityshop.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1846)

[fythbro]

death stalks me
out on the plains
nothing can stop him
tonight my life will end

will the knife be sharp
or jagged edged
ripping the flesh
ripping the soul
you know...

bleeding away
every day on the floor of my room

Hands drag me down
Again and again
Pain so bad i cant feel my legs
Slowly being ripped to shreds
You know...

crap yes.

[Aquarium]

just had a read through the whole thread, took a while but i was laughing oretty much non stop through it. tres bien.

just wondering however if anyone noticed that the vampire forum lady is developing a conspiracy theory.

on the second she posted
So... Mr. Jones... what can you tell us about yourself?

I just wonder a little bit is all because this thread is a little unique...

The night that this thread was first posted I began to see hits here at TP Gothic from all over Europe within just minutes...

The Netherlands, Austria, Prague, Poland, Switzerland... a ton of hits from Brittish Telecom in the UK, Canada, on and on, some from countries that I cannot even think of right now...

And I have been collecting these IP addresses and their resolves, their reverse-whois that is, collecting them because this is a strange phenomenon, kind of, and you never know when you might need that information...

I have my theories about some large group of people out there who are communicating on some other back-channel about this, or some other bulletin board, for some reason.

Because day after day I watch these European hits coming to this thread and reading it, and only this thread. And this thread has not been changing so why pull it up over 200 times? HUH?

So something is going on here and its a mystery. A european mystery. And I am collecting clues and trying to put them together...

So SPILL IT mr. Jones... who are you involved with? icon_smile.gif

- laura palmtree

no-one has mentioned it in the thread and i thought it was quite amusing, just wondering if it had been overlooked or my sense of humour is just shit?

[Schism]

oh my I think shes on to you Mr. Jones

[Themagichobo]

Damn goths
I've seen to many
Cheese on chips
Kangaroo Scrotums
Without wetting the bed
Emu Emu
Emu singing Emu
Dorks.....

[fythbro]

oh so random, very random...

Fuck life its lost its thrill
Eons of unlife have taken their toll
A cold grave is all i ask
Rotting away my bones

On and on the pain continues
Fear of my nightmares rip at my flesh

Will the pain never end
Eternity is a long time
Eons pass and grow long does the grass
Bodies bleed and rot
Love is like a dagger in my heart

[Cronax]

Raving little children
Allways playing games
Never stopping and thinking
Death will come for us all
Oh someday they will realise
Maybe sadness exists after all...

All of them will realise
Nothing is what it seems
Glory is never true
So whatever you do
Terrible things will happen

It is inevitable...
So much so it makes me sad...

God they say is ever present
Onto us at all times
Overlooking very little
Death, will come for us all


Angsty

[king_kihl]

Having to listen to all of your antics
Underestimating who you think I am
Making you laugh when I think you need it
Or is it because I need you to look my way
Underestimating who I think you are
Reading into every little joke in life
,

Like when you smiled with tears of pain
In life, you say, you find hapiness
Ended and started with jokes gone to far
Sadness is hapiness with knowledge of truth

And everything you say you know about me
Needs nothing said, for you 'know' it is true
Death is a miracle to some that I know

Betting for death and losing everything to life
Everything said could slowly be told and
The truth or the lies will all sound the same
Revealing stories of pain or jokes to take
Away the pain leaving humour and lies
Yesterday was lonely, wanted you then
And my jokes left us lonely, you and I,
Living apart forever for humour, lies and betrayal

[Digga]

Loneliness pours out of my broken soul
Only I understand this gaping hole
Lost forever in the fear above
Lost forever like a single collared dove
Everywhere I go I'm reminded of the pain
Remembering the stress, remembering the strain
Save me from my own destruction
Krispy kreme doughnuts don't help weight reduction
All this time all I ever wanted was to be loved
Too late now, I'll join the lord above
Empty-minded I leave this world forever
Sleeping now, to be with dear departed together

[fythbro]

Sick of this life
unending pain
Icy glares from people around me
Cutting the flesh
Into peices
Death is a release
Extascy through pain

Is my life worth so little?
so little that none care?
A knife at my bedside, beckons to me.

Cutting the flesh,
Ripping the veins
Immetirial gain through pain
My lifeless hands drop the knife
Extascy through death.

[NinjaPirate666]

Great thread! :notworthy

Here's a luvverly Death Metal inspired poem: -

I pull out the knife

Place it near his head
Wicked thoughts devour me
Now the bastard's dead

Just then I start to think
Of who it was I killed
Oh it doesn't matter, as long as blood is spilled

Gore is the answer
Only death remains
Torture, disembowelment
Here now blood will rain

Frantic, mindless stabbing
Oozing out - your blood
Operations will not save you
Stitches are no good

Hole-riddled body
Eviscerated head,
Hope you enjoy being dead...

[SickBoY]

Below the dying flowers
Under the frozen soil
My love lies
Cold in her sleep
Like death parted us
Only death can rejoin us
Unite us eternally
Divide us no more
Somwhere in the darkness


This actually got me sorta depressed :nana:

[Kharay]

As I sit and watch my pitiful life
gone is all my hope.
Oh wondrous life,
nevermore will you bother me.
You suck, oh wondrous reality.

[zero defex.]

An angry, hate filled mind, stuck in the
Never ending activity of modern life
Going nowhere, but to the catastrophic apocolypse,
Slowly the corporations brainwash us to obey
To follow them and live no life of our own.

Shnar!

[Cynic]

Damm, no wonder I diden't get any re-pie updates my post was wiped it the forum change. Well heres a new poem to describe my rage at the loss of the old one:

Superman can't help you now
On your way to hell
Damm your Ash and your forum change!

[Hazel_Parasite]

You should stay away
Or forever be destroyed
Under sunshine I will sit
Remembering the past

Preaching to the world
In my misery, the truth
Eating the harmful words you shoved in my face

Is it enough to ask?
So why must you draw near?

My past is too hurtful
I deserve to die in pain
Now go away, unless you want to
Evermore, be scarred.

[AF632]

S taple of the soul,

P hallus to the minds of all,

U nderlying pain,

N aked in the eyes of God

K nackers are the root of lust.


Not only is it acrostic, it's also a form of Japanese syllabic poetry called a renga.
Yes, I'm pretentious. You love it. :twisted:

[Fishmonster]

A new one from me

Again i am writing
No reason to talk
Alone in my world
Love is foreign to me

Veins splitting
I can't escape
Or don't want to?
Lying awake
Awaiting liberation
Time is killing me
I'm dying here alone
On my own
No-one will see

[DuskTG]

I couldn't stand not replying, so I quickly registered :)

Here's my creation:

All day I think of what I am
Looking at the life I've got
Longing for what I'm not, but

You, you can release me
Only all you do is tease me
Underneath my skin you sit and wait
Reaching out, just not too late

Please take me from this world
I have no reason to stay
Each bit of my life is grey

All day I think of what I am
Reaching for the pills again
Each time with the courage of many men

But I never really do
Even though I'm
Longing for what I'm not
Oh, if only, if only
Nothing could stop me
God, if only

Tomorrow will be the day
Or at least that's what I say

Underneath I'm always sad
Since alive is what I am

[AF632]

Hurting in your legs
Or arms?
Maybe you have a rash on your
Epidermus, or a boil
On your face?
Perhaps you've visited your
Alchemist and found nothing
To take away you ailment without
Having to have a prescription.
In which case, another
Course of action is required.

Medicine of ancient civilisations involved
Eating roots and leaves to help
Deaden such ailments.
In fact, this kind of treatment is
Creeping back into vogue.
In many high streets these days, a chain
Named 'Hooland & Barratts' peddle such cures at
Exorbitant prices. (£3.50 for some cod liver oil tablets? Piss off!)

[Fishmonster]

Hmm nice AF632 but not really Gothic is it....very clever though lol i like it

[Insanity]

In the dark, i wait

Waiting can be dull, but it serves a purpose
All things serve a purpose
Not always pain, but aching constantly
The burning ends, but only breifly
Every day is the same
Diing can only bring release.

Pie is my only friend
Only that can massage me
Real pain had no end
Nothing lasts forever

[AF632]

For my last post, the accusation of lacking Gothickness was levelled. It's time to attempt to redress the balance.

Homo sapiens, by and large,
Avoid the subject of wild lust
Violence and phallic barge,
Invoke in most the need to thrust.
Not admitting all the urges,
Got to see this might be urgent.

So what is there left,
Except to lunge and to rape,
X-rated feelings.

When you feel your cock a-quiver,
Instead of seeking out a mate,
Take your member here and thither,
Having wood, this action take.

You must simply find a graveyard,
Open a grave at random, do
Underneath the fresh-packed soil,
Recreational pleasure awaits you.

Did this experience excite you?
Earth moved, world rocked, things good for you?
Alas, if not, there is one further
Deviance for you to do.

Mark out the crypt of your ancestors,
Open the door and move inside,
Take your member, thrust it in her,
Have the guts to rut your mother,
Even though she weren't a lover.
Rather Oedipal, but nice!

Actually, that was a bit rubbish.

[Snufkin]

Where is the porn?????????

[dadatramp]

wheres the porn!?

[Destrukto]

Once more such crap responses in a besterest thread and you are banned...
All three of you...

[donkey poop]

I deleted my spam, sorry for it

[masked_muffin]

Milling around
Under the crushing injustice
Fleeing
Falling
Into despair
Never ending pain

All right, that was awful, but it was my first try! :D

[AF632]

A haiku to tide my fans over

Cuffs and collars, when
Under up-close scrutiny
Must be found to match

[PoofBird]

yay for besterest threads! it keeps your thread alive for ever!

Haunting my nights
On weathered wings
Under the spell
Princess of hell
Lurking, she sings
Aching, she fights.

:D

[Insanity]

I'm not one of those three am I?


I'm sorry:(

[Fishmonster]

Over and over i hear the
Beat of your heart
Empty i can feel it
Yearning for something more

The beat it wants
How can it want
Everything i ever wanted

Finally i find release
Infinity awaits me
Something makes me wonder
How i got what i wanted

hmmm kinda disjointed but the message has meaning

[fythbro]

Barren wastes of my mind
Lingering jackals tear the flesh
Inside my body
Near my eyes
Gone is the sorrow
Inside the grave
No end to pain

[Fishmonster]

Emptiness comsumes me
Xcept when i'm alone
People they cannot know
Love it tears at me
Opens up my heart
Sends my feelings flying
I do not understand
Only you can understand
Nobody makes me feel
Empty like you do
Revealing my feelings
Inside myself
Finding myself
I cannot see
Cannot think

Oh dear i appear to be loosing what little poetic ability i ever had. Oh well i had to write an explosionerific poem did i not?

[Chavvy]

Parts of me wander
Around the deep void
Realising my fate
Obeying my
Desires
Yearning for freedom....


Seemed apt at teh moment

[donkey poop]

Its the only answer

locked in a dream
opuim of our people
vixen crazy, aphid attraction
everything ends with you

bizarre but right at home
left behind
understate my needs
everything ends right now.

sorry if that sucked, this is my first attemtped :rolleyes:

[curiosa]

[yea yea yea i know i should be in the begginers bit but i wanted so post so let me and i'll get back in my cage...]

Because your buried in the ground...

cya
*crawls back into begginer cage*

[Skybert]

w00t! w00t! w00t! w00t!

[AF632]

Far be it for me to be
A a body fascist, but
To stick when you thrust isn't right

Sometimes a sheen of
Water is acceptable, after
Exercise or tantric pursuit.
All I ask is that when you are stripping,
Take a quick mop-up with your
Y-fronts, I implore.

As we are on the subject of
Rectal hygiene, when you
Shower, take a moment, remove
Effluence clinging round your
Hole. Do this and maybe
Once again your crevice will attract
Lovers and bastards and
Even passing trade!

[DutchDemon]

after an idea from Schism, i present you my poem :)

Neigh is the terror that threatens my heart
On the brink of destruction i am

Wherever i go, i'm ruled by the pain
Only death have i found
Repeadetly brought to despair in my rain
Repeadetly hate has me bound
In my being i wait for all this to end
Ever to end
Solely darkness though has lend me his hand

Been it always like this?
Unending night?
Your guess is mine, we die in despite

Ponding darkness, throbbing pain
Unstopping fighting will all be in vain
Pending between the darkness and death
Pond'ring if light i have ever met
In the end the light will be blown by the wind
Ever recurring doom haunts our kind
Scarring my mind


Alternative last line:
Stupid blue screens, i wish i was blind


As you can see, there's the message inspired by Schism's remark, but there's also something Lord-of-the-Rings-related, which i put in for no reason :P
try to find it.

It's in the second word (worries)

Don't you know 'one ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them' ? lol :P look at the verbs :P

you guys think it's good enough to put on a goth forum? :)


edit: i posted it here
http://www.twinpeaksgothic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=291
lets all post our poems and see how long it takes 'till she finds out ^^

[pebble_rebel]

Mortality is like a thunderstorm over a great plain,
Cutting through the air like knife into skin,
Famine is the love that has starved you for so long,
Looking for your soul, hunting
YOU

Rebellion is crushed like indivividuality beneath the boot of consumerism,
Owls watch from a dieing tree,
Carcusses rot in the rain,
Knives are my friends.

Is it shit enough to be gothic poetry?

[DutchDemon]

w00t i got a positive re-pie from her lol ^^
she still doesn't see the link/mystery and stuff lol :P
