Come down low, so everyone hears we are all in the game Its been like this for years Running down people, running down fears On the dark side The last of the fast men With the last of the slow Dance in the night because there's nowhere to go On the Dark Side we look up as music takes flight. As all around us as we fight Just more lost souls In the pit of the night On the dark side Now we're here nothing seems real Cry in the heat those crocodile tears We walk in, eyes open wide just a place to go when dreams have died On the dark side Where the last of hot girls Courts the last of the cold And they Dance in the night Down where nobody knows On the Dark side i'm heading down now Into the night Where a lonely girl Is calling for the light On the Dark Side ON THE DARK SIDE< !signature--> Vanguard of the New Movement Behind his polished cedar desk, surrounded by his phones, Sits Blazer Dyke(The yachting type), The vanguard of the clones. The Archetype, The number one,The vanguard of the clones. Crossing over busy street, where noisy traffic drones, Walks Blazer Dyke (without a bike), The vanguard of the clones. The autocrat, The ectomorph, The vanguard of the clones. He strides across the cobbled yard, Where pawn shops offer loans, That Blazer Dyke (Whom i dislike), The vanguard of the clones. The cannibal, The parasite, The vanguard of the clones. He passes through the wicket gate, To churhyards full of bones, That Blazer Dyke (on a midnight hike), The vanguard of the clones. The necrophile, The narcissist, The coprophage, The sybarite, The telepath, The Anti-Christ, The vanguard of the clones.

very cool, cryptic, poem W, you draw this side of life well with your words, ... theres a place for everyone to go ... even those who find their comfort in the dark take care kind poet jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving (How one move just puts me by myself) There you go just trusting someone else (Now I know I put us both through hell) ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong (I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me) And I'm not sayin (We ever had the right to hold on) (I just didn't wanna let you get away from me) ~MB20~ She says baby, It's 3AM ... I must be lonely, When she says baby, Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes, Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it. ~MB20~ |

Walter, this is tuneful! Is this a song? If not it should be!  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 |

This does remind me of Eddie and the cruisers song (movie title), I think it was actually song by the beaver band, not this poem but one like it to be twins, it's title is "The Dark Side". love the movie. and love this poem. great job. Joel I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

I sat just a bit ago looking into my own darkness of my soul, then I came upon this and it made me look a bit deeper...... oh, darkness be bitter sweet as your words here..... I find this one grand , indeed! There is an alter ego which dwells in every soul... a-alibaster |

On the dark side if joel reads this it is actually based on the song from Eddie and the cruisers (love that film). This is my own version of that song. It (at least in my mind) goes to the same tune.

I loved the movie and I love this too! This is great work Walter. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
