©2000 Christopher Ward evil dreaming demons scheming plots in sticky dark heart so barren, cold deeds done brazen, bold craven their dull despair unfair a-chanced rolled fate pain to relate to children past cast to the future in festering suture hope slicing deeply creepy the sordid lies truths they forever deny to sanity's face erase away the guilt a death knell rebuilt 'pon tower-tall of sand un-manned by gestures rulers and their scepters crowning knights of sin kin to the chains of slaves brave, they to bear; the weight of an un-life formed in hate Hello, my name is Christopher. You can call me sir or boss, either will do fine!  (Just please don't call me some of the other names I've earned here!!!) As you may have noticed, I am now a co-moderator in Dark Passions. The biggest reason I am here is to help out, with Michael on his "vacation" (uh-huh, suuuure!) and with Isis being pre-occupied and swamped in here! So I offered Ron my help. I have been a member here at Passions for almost a year and a moderator for... uhh... I don't know... I'm having a hard time remembering when I wasn't a moderator!  The other two forums I moderate in are Prose and the English Workshop (so watch that thar' spellun'!) Please drop by and pay us a visit sometime!Anyway, most of you might not recognize me, as it's been a while since I've posted here in Dark. But I have been here, watching you! I know most of you, even though you probably don't even know my name! So let's all behave (or at least pretend to behave whilst the adults are watching, eh?) *wink* If'n you's ever needs sumthin' feel free to get a-hold of me! I'm always available to members! (And ignore anything Michael says about me, he's just jealous 'cause I have a Porshe and he doesn't!) Peace out and thanks, Christopher [This message has been edited by Christopher (edited 07-11-2000).] |

This poem is very "panoramic", I see it to sum up the dark path of history in a nutshell. Very well done (even if that wasn't what it's about!) Lotharingia "For God's sake, he's a poet. Poets are meant to feel miserable. Otherwise, what the hell are they here for? What are they going to write about?" Tom Holland |

Hi Christopher, cool poem, on the creepy side, but hey, thats why we are here, to obsess, depress, and share. Thanks for reading my wors too. Agreeing with spitfire, "Knights of sin" has a great ring to it.. Catalinamoon aka Sandra "If a man moves you to feel like a woman, the least you can do is let him." Merrit Malloy |

You sure know how to melt a girl's heart ... hehehe  Oh, and BTW, "boss" (gak) -- the "vacationer" says he just adores your li'l teacups! (oh, and the internal rhyme too ... yawn.) Well, I'm out ... clean up your mess, willya? Eeeww ... --The Brat< !signature--> YOUR LIFE IS A TEST It is only a test ... If this were your Actual Life, you would have been given better instructions! [This message has been edited by Skyfyre (edited 07-11-2000).] |

I want to re-iterate & add something as well- 1. Don't listen to Michael. 2. Don't listen to Kess. See what I mean? They're both jealous! Thank you all for the welcome! Heard tell Isis was going to be back around here fairly soon! But that doesn't men you'll be getting rid of me! I'm here for a while at least... S'posed to be straightening y'all up, but I think I'd rather be corrupted instead! Peace, Christopher |

Hey Boss!!! Don't think you're getting out of here that easy... This is like Hotel California, you can check out any time you like - but you can NEVER leave!!! I think I speak for everyone when I say we "NEED" you here... Especially since I never know when I am gonna be around as of late... Good to have you aboard, Bud... Michael |
