[hometext] => You'll probably notice a certain darkness around all my poetry... not to everyone's taste.
[bodytext] => A candle
Flickers in the darkness A single flame Dances and sways In the midst of a black shroud A carver Bent to the light and creating He is a master, a dictator To dominate, to rule as he pleases Over us, the created But the shadows deceive us For this sculptor Is not alone He is one of them All creating, all controlling Some try to rebel Some try to resist But resistance is futile They will bring you down They will destroy you forever For do you not see? They are the music makers They are the dreamers of dreams We are theirs, so it has always been They are the puppet makers [comments] => 2 [counter] => 203 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Sparkling_Fury [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
