*The Hang Man*

Standing on the bridge of darkness
 He stood within the shadows
A man cloaked in blackness
 Stood before the gallows
And he wondered of the sins of the past
  And hoped these days were not his last.
As he stepped below the dangling ropes,
  He finally gave up his hope
And as the rope tightened around his neck
  He thought to himself, I'm off to heaven, so what the heck
So he jumped off that bridge
  And dangled there,...over the edge
And if you looked, a smile was seen
  On his face, as if he had jumped,
           to meet his dreams...


*playing in angel dust*

Playing in angel dust
Some say it is a must
And as they fly up in the sky
Slowly their brains and bodies die
So if you find playing is a must
Please don't do it in angel dust....


*DERBEAR'S POEMS*

Hidding out among the trees
Giving pots of honey from some bees
Giving Giant Bear *hugs*
Is his idea of fun
To unsuspecting unicorns
Standing in the sun.
But when he gets licked to death
It really is quite a mess
And every golden brown hair
Stands straight up in the air
Then he gives the unicorn a *energy*pop*&
And disapears into the bush, With a *HOP*

*Memories*
As the photo albumn becomes full
And all the memories are included
The friendships go away
But their memories will always stay
If pictures speak a thousand words
Then they hold a million memories
Of things that have come and gone
And of things yet to be born.
And with every passing day
Looking back at the pictures...
          the memories are replayed....


*Winters Coming*
The Day is shining bright
With the golden sun light
And the aspen leaves are turning gold
And the mountains are covered with snow
And as winter starts getting near
It becomes the festival time of year
And the birds are heading south
As we all decorate our house..

*Who Am I*

In Hawaii I am "Keki"
In Spain I am "Alicia"
In America I am "Stacy"
In Dreams I am "Blackmist"
And in Finland I am "Mustap!ly"
Who am I?
  Who could I be?
Do you know?
 No, I did not think so.
And if i said Aloha, Then I am Keki
 But am I still me?
And if I was Stacy?
  Would you say "Who is she?"

*good night*
The night will end, the day begins
and the dreams will be no more
till we meet again, may you dream well
until the nightmare returns from her sleeping hell
good day and good night
and sleep well my far away knight

*Imagination*
How can you draw?
what you can not see
how can you see
what can not be?
In this universe 
or the next
some people would say
"theres no unicorns i bet"

*drum riddle*
What beats?
yet as no heart
what has legs?
but can not walk
what makes noise?
but never talks
a drum.

*wandering dreams*
the dream shifts
the river flows
the mist splits
and the world turns slow
and i wonder where
all the dreams did go?

*sands of time*

As I walk across the sands of time
I see my heart in my minds eye.
As the wind sweeps across the sands
Wiping away my steps before I make them
As my foot prints disapear
As if I was never there
And I hear the wind laugh
As it wipes away my past....

*friends..or not friends?*

One by one they come together
Then they leave forever
Will I ever see them again?
NO...cause they are no longer my friends.

*my cat*

Purr my silly cat
sitting in my lap
with a scratch behind the ear
you purr so loud, all can hear..
and your fur is so long and soft..
and with a spring you are off...
and i hope you never get lost....

*FIRE*
Where's the center? 
Where's the front?
How do i get out
when its all around?
How can a single spark
Somewhere in the park
Set the world alight
And make the sky black as night?
"Oh someone please help me"
Make it through this firey night...

*the sphynx*

The sphynx must ask he
the one who must answer her riddle three
about the one who walks on 4, then 2, then 3
will he know the answer?
even though it is he?
if he doesn't know, then
she must kill he.
who is the answer to her riddle three...       (stupid i know..but oh well)

*Searching*
 
Searching through the mist of love
I wonder what I'll find
A broken heart, A string of lies
A wall to block my mind's searching eye
And if I break the wall apart
Would I find your heart
Or would i find an empty space
and a faded memory, of your face?

*The FriendShip Necklaces*
Best friends is what it said.
One half silver, one half gold
Put them together, and they are whole
The silver half was for my brother
The gold for my sister
And as time went by, they lost their halfs
As our friendships, became part of the past.

There were four pieces in whole
Two friendships to behold
And the pieces were interchangable
Kind of like a friendship cable
Mine fit his, his fit hers, hers fit mine.
But their pieces were lost in time.
All thats left are the silver and gold
The ones that i still hold
Hanging on my wall
On a chain for all to see
Two friendships that can no longer be.




*the world*
Crystal dreams
and flower streams
running through the world

The clouds of white
and the sweet star light
make this a brighter world

and the snow upon the plains
erase all the hurt and pain
and make this a silver white world

And the sun will shine so bright
and make the peoples heart be light
and its another day in a golden world

*BLAZE THE COPPER UNICORN*
As the twighlite began to fade..
and the new day was made..
and before the blazing sun
apeared a copper one
burning in the flames...
with a firey red mane...
Burning with a inner glow...
seaming to be made of copper gold...
and to the devil his soul was sold
for the love of one held so dear
a werebitch daring not to fear
for the love to each other was forbade...
and the tangled knot of love were made..
for the unicorn of the copper sun...
fell in love with the forbidden one...
with the long silver hair...
his beautiful  maiden fair....
and before the eyes of god
he asked for the hand of the one he loved
a silver maned lass of breeding age...
never ever to be kept within a cage...
to roam the world free as she was born
To forever be with her love...THE Copper unicorn

***Tribute to the unicorn*

Black Mist swirls all around...
Twisted bodies on the bloody ground
Standing with its shining horn
On the broken plains, the unicorn
with noble eyes it looks ahead
tears of blood have now been shed,
with eyes that see what mortals can't precieve
she watches the spirits wander, across the black mist sea...
with the white shining horn
she leads them to where she was born
A beacon of magic light
A creature of splendid might
She can but point the way
but she alone must stay
for the unicorn leads the way to the light
but must remain in this world of night
that was decreed in the past...
she was the very first..
   She would be the very last....




***THE PRISONER***

He stood there bound in metal chains...
Proud of his heritage and his blood red mane...
he threatened those that came to hurt...
and called him a muscle bound brut..
For even in chains he was a menice to all
With a single swing of his horns, an enemy would fall
and if his hands were free of the cahins..
his long claws would soon be blood stained..
and if the chain ball around his leg was removed...
I wonder how much damage he could do with those sharp hoofs
and as I reach for the keys,
he eyes me wearily...
as I got close I said to him...
I'm setting you free...I'm a friend
and with a click, I released the beast...
There came a bellow, that made the blood freeze..
and he fell upon his captors..like a mad man
and killed every single one of them
He stepped on one with his hoofs, and gored another with his horns...
with a strength that only his kind are born
and tore the rest limb from limb
or just smashed their heads in
then when all was done and through
then he turned to me, and to my amazement, 
he spoke...
Thank you my friend, for what you have done..
and I shall forever be indept to you, I owe you one
If you ever need me..just speak my name...
and with that he left, the Minotaur, with the red blood mane
and  the deepest part of my heart..
  wished that he had not departed...


**THE wall around the hearts****

does he love me..
does he care..
I wonder about these things..
as I sit and stare
into the emptyness of his heart..
looking for just a part...
looking into the depths of his eyes..
but afraid of what I might find..
will I find the joy and love I long for..
Or will I run into that brick wall against love..
the wall I run into so many times...
and I wonder why I try
because no matter how much I try to break it down.
it remains solid..just like the ground
but as I turn and look at myself
I also see the wall that I have built...
not so sturdy or so big
but none the less it is there..
and I see the nicks and chips around the edges..
and I wonder who's been knocking on my wall....
did they give up trying cause it was there...
gave up trying to find the heart hidden back there
and I see the new bricks built upon the nicks..
was it built higher to keep away the hurt
to keep out the love that was trying to break the wall apart?
and as I look, I know its true..
I lost a love...as I will soon loose you
all because of the walls around the hearts...
and the gates...we always keep locked...

***THE HIDDEN SECRET?*

As I look into your eyes of blue green....
I look into a misty sea..
I can not see what lays beyond
what was there, what was gone
as I wander in the mist
I hear a faint HIsssss..
and I stop in fear of what I'll find
with in the depths of your mind
so I run away from this
this thing hidden in the mist..
afraid of what lays in there
a creature that does not care?
a creature tht strikes at those that dare
to break through the mist to its lair..
and what does it protect?
 your heart I bet
from ever being found..
or tied down like a hound..
and so I leave your misty sea's 
To leave your heart..the way you want it to be...
 


***THE GALLOW****

In the mist I follow
In the mist I lead..
I'm heading for the gallow
would you come with me...

I go to meet my fate..
or to just demonstrate...
I'm heading for the gallow
to swing beneath the tree..
which will be so much fun..
will you come with me??

You know the truth of what I did
And yet you will not listen..
Will you just speak to them
They know not what they are missing...
Will you come with me....

Today I head for the gallow
I love the horse beneath my knees...
He's so shiny black and head held high...
Will you come with me?

Now I'm at the gallows..
and you still have not spoke your deed..
and the multitude do not believe in me..
and for this deed you let me die...
Well, You will have to live the lie...
You will not come with me??

The ropes beneath the gallow
sing of love gone bad..
then with a slap my stallion jumped...
and set my spirit free..
and I ask you one last time
  ... Why did you not come with me?


****Angel of death***

Late into the night I weep...
for I can not sleep..
you are so far away..
and I hope you're okay..
and as I look I see him now
And angel in a blacken gown...
He summons that its time to go
But does he really know
That I wish to stay
To see one more day
To catch one more glimps of the Pink sunrise
Or look deep into your blue green eyes...
No . He does not care of this...
And he will not grant me my final wish
And so I weep this night...
For I leave with the angel of death
      At Midnight....

****SLVRMANE******** (yet another poem about lancelot)

Blackwolf with the silver blaze
Walking through the misty maze
Seaching for the night horn
Known as the black unicorn
And in the center of the maze
He stopped, shocked at what met his gaze
A young girl in a black gown
With a chain of gold, tied to the ground.
What do you want she asked of him..
Are you foe or friend....
"I'm looking for night horn
Can you help me find the black unicorn?"
If you'll break these chains
I'll take you to miss goldy mane
As he closed his eyes and bit through the chain..
He looked up and saw a black unicorn with a golden mane..
She said "thank you for freeing me,
 What may I ask do you need?"
 had a spell cast on me
And only unicorn magic can set me free
"No sooner said than done"
As she taped him with her Black Crysal Horn
He shook his coat and changed...
Into a black unicorn with a white mane
He said to her "thank you lady fair...
I'm  SlvrBlaze as you can see..
And once again my lady fair...
I thank thee for freeing me...
   And so you see them now at night...
  One of gold and one of silver...
    Both black as midnight..

   

*suicide*

I wish I was dead
Is what she said, 
why should I live, they don't care
I'm just another person living here
I can come and go
and they would never know
she does not know who she'll hurt in the end
not only her family, but her friends
and so she took a knife from the table
and cut deep into her life cable..
She slit her wrist not once but twice
and as she drained away her life
and then a voice called out to her
but she was far to gone to have heard.
the cries of those that cared...
the ones that had always been there..


*his touch was so tender*

His touch was so tender
 His touch I barely felt
  His love was but a whisper
   And the stone heart he did melt..

His touch was so soft
 His touch i'm sure was there
  Kissed my cheek so lightly
   Running fingers through my hair

His touch was but a whisper
 His touch was but air
  And as i turned in wonder
   But he was no longer there

His touch was with but  ghostly fingers
 His touch, a petal in the breeze
  And as the rose I long to be..
   His gentle touch will set me free....

*tiny feet*

As my soul takes flight from the world
I see a tiny little girl
playing in the dirty street
with not a thing to eat..
and as the years fly by
I watch the girl with my ghostly eyes
With ghostly hands to guide her feet
Away from the life on the street
And as she became a respected lady..
she got married and had a baby..
and once again I see, A child in the dirty street..
With thoses little tiny feet.....

*Drugs?*
Drugs, what are they good for..
   absolutely nothing..
You use them up..
  they bring you down..
and you run your life
  into the ground
Get it straight.. 
 you know the way..
to make sure you get to see...
  yet another beautiful day..
Drugs are bad, you know its true...
  cause if you use to many, when the night is through...
You'll be dead...it is the end..
  there is no coming back ever again..

***BAR MAIDENS BAR***

Barmaiden runs her bar each day
watching all the people stray
wandering in and out her channel doors..
as she makes another PMS Drink that they so adore...
And the Bouncer goes around
Knocking people to the ground..
And the Waiter Magically apears..
And arranges all the chairs..
He escorts all the people in...
and asks them what they want that night
And lancelot cooks in the Kitchen..
And the mess in the kitchen is quite a sight...
And as barmaiden closes down....
She makes sure no one is left around....

*********************FINAL BLACKMIST POEM**********************************
This is number 100 this is the last....

This is my final poem
and this you must believe
for 100 is the highest number
That I can concieve..
I hope you've had your fill
Of poems of danger and thrill
of love gone bad
and things that were sad..
For this is the last my friends
And Hell File Is at an end..
And if I sin..
 and write again....
Hell2 will be born.
And there will be more strange poems..
>From the Black Dreaming Unicorn
And Hell Will be started again...
The beginning and another end....

***********THE NEW BATCH OF POEMS BY BLACKMIST THE CRAZY UNICORN**********
12/30/90      Hope you enjoy them.. bye bye


BACK TO SCHOOL AGAIN?
So the holiday season ends
and its back to school again
back to the food you really hate..
and all the teachers are irrate...
and so I welcome you back again
and good luck my distant friends..
hope the year goes well for you..
in this Brand NEW YEAR in school...

*Presious Gem/ heart of stone*

A gem is but a stone
 till someone makes it presious
it is but a simple rock
 till you hold it dear to your heart
and so you took this heart of stone
 and with tender loving care
revealed the sparkling beauty lying there
 behind its many facets it hides
the shining joy from all human eyes
 till a spark of light of love reveals
the beauty behind the stone

and so a gem is but a stone
 till you make it presious
so I give this heart to thee
 as long as you will love me

****forbidden love?****

forbidden love
the passion breaks
standing before the stone made gate
love is out there
beyond the gates
forbidden as it is...
man wishes to make it his
and if the lock he breaks
and breaks the seal on the stony gate
then love is his forever after
for his heart now has a master
to torture him till the end of life
by someone called his wife
12/5/90

****Golden Feet****

Golden feet fly across the sky
and you hear a whispered "goodbye"
and as you stare in the stary light
the black unicorn flicks out of sight
leaving you to gaze in wonder
at the unicorn's splendor.
12/5/90


*****holiday greetings from us******
The unicorn that's shiny white
and the unicorn that walks at night
wish you a happy holiday
and a wonderful new years day

may the stars be bright
and your spirits light
the snow crystal white
on this Special Christmas Night
12/10/90


*Silence Rules in Hell*

Silence rules in Hell
 and no one speaks a word
walking towards the blackish well
 joining the black mare`s herd...

Silence rules in Hell
 as the gates slowly close
All hear the distant bell
 as the NightMare blows her horn...

Silence rules in Hell
 and death will rise again
Deep from with in her midnight shell
 she will come.. when the day is at its end....



*Snow Flakes*

Snow drifts gently down
 fluffy soft and white
A blanket on the ground
 reflecting the moon light
so pure it seems to be
 shining in the night
like my heart once use to be
 glittering so heavenly bright

The snow drifts gently down
 covering all my fears
Like a blanket of goosy down
 filling me with warmth and care
Each star a single flake
 falling on the land
Beauty for all to take
 but yet I understand...

JUNK POEMS BY BLACKMIST>>>read at your own risk: thank you:
************************************************************************

as i enter this ancient place of leaning
I feel a presence stirring
back into the chamber turning
the candles forever burning
my heart is forever yearning
for this life to end its turning
so i leave the chamber, burning.


******
power you may steal
love you  just might feel
if your gentle and kind
my heart you just might find
driven by the power
at this lust full hour
if all you do is lust
then this love is but dust
Power you will lose
and have nothing but your shoes
and my heart would be mine
cause my love you did not find.
12/5/90
***********************

on the dark side of the moon
or the dark side of the heart
what is the difference
how do you tell them apart
both have a hidden side
a light and a dark
dark secrets the heart does hide
revealing only the lighter part

on the dark side of the moon
where the spirits hide
or the dark side of the heart,
where the secrets lie
so many secrets are hidden there
hidden from so many prying eyes
lying to those that really care
and soon the heart will die.
12/30/90

*******
once upon a midnight dreary
walking across a frozen prairy
while I ponder weak and weary
searching for the midnight fairy
I wounder where she could be
and if she is looking for me
and so I search the night for thee
my beautiful midnight fairy.
12/30/90
***********

**GOLD FEET part 2****
Golden feet fly across the sky
and you hear a whispered goodbye
and as you stare in the stary light
the black unicorn flicks out of sight
leaving you to gaze in wonder
at the unicorn`s splendor
and close bye you hear a nicker
and get tickled bye some whiskers
and as you turn to look and see
you are alone, just you, yourself, and thee..
12/5/90
************

the key
the lock
what will open
ths stone made lock
cold to the touch
and made of rock
a well kept secret 
 a stone locked heart
to break the lock
you need the key...
but the key is lost
 don`t you see..
and so the heart remains well locked
 for even time can not break hearts of rock
12/30/90
***********************
Multible verses for "Silence Rules In HELL"

Silence rules in hell
 and no one spoke a word
  all came to see..
   the Mystical Nightmare herd
And all the days they spend
 watching the days go by
  for in the day light
   all Nightmares hide.

Silence rules in hell
 and all the world is quiet
  thinking of all the times gone by
   when the world was a riot
    Silence rules in hell
     A pin was heard within the hall
      for all could hear the little pin.
       as it echoed off the walls

walking through the gates of hell
 and silence is my guest
with all the people here
 there could be a winterfest.
but it is hot within theses walls
 and all the peoples spirits fall....

Silence rules in hell
 all the words are said
  and all the people here
   are among the living dead
with this they live in silence
 all the dead and living
  all the spirits have gone away
   and the bodies go on dreaming.



*****
the void is my own
the place I call my home
and in the darkness of my heart
the world is split apart
I pass the aging light
and wander in this night
this is my home you see
for there is no place that wants me.

***************************************************************************

*** Unicorn's Familiar***
white as lightning
and just as blinding
the panter of snow white
from the distant northern heights
a creature of magic
to please his master
the mysterious white lady
with the ringing laughter
laying by her side
with his ever watchful eyes
and with Reeses the little gnome
he tumbles and plays in the snow.
and the lady laughs as they play
and takes a piece of chocolate from a tray
	
*****WANDERER'S POEM*****
I wander through my life
 there's no place I belong
wander, wander, wandering
 looking for my home.
Down this road I travel
 many roads I've seen
Through this life I wander
 looking for the fields of green
Walk, Walk, Walking
 down this road I go
Heading for my future
 and wonder what it holds
Will I find the home I seak.
 or the friends I long to have
Or will I keep wandering these streets
 And walking this lonely path?..
1/10/90 (last poem)
*Musical Stories*****

listen to the music
and tell me what it says
does it say that life is great
 or that all the world is sad
know what you are saying
 as you sing out all the words
listen to what you are saying
 do you know, I doubt it
what is the story behind the words
what is the message they want you to learn
listen to the music
 it is there to let you know
that all the world is not happy
 nor is it made of gold
12/30/90
}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

**Icey Ride***

slip and slide
across the ice I fly
beneath the powdered snow
the ice does not show
you go to stop and things go crashing
and the last thing you hear, is bones snapping
and so on this ice I lie
beneath this snow, I die
what fun it is to slip and slide
as my spirit flies.

Music story 2 cause someone said one was not long enough
*MUSICAL STORIES 2*****

listen to the music
 and tell me what it says
does it say that life is great
 or that all the world is sad
know what you are saying
 as you sing out all the words

listen to what you are saying
 do you know, I doubt it
what is the story behind the words
 what is the message they want you to learn
listen to the music
 it is there to let you know
that all the world is not happy
 nor is it made of gold

Listen to the music
 for the words are true
the world is no longer green
 and the sky is not blue
The sea was greenish blue
 now it is inky black
and the children of the world
 are dying from a rock called crack
so listen to the music
 and learn their hidden meaning
Let the children play and sing
 and never give up dreaming.
1/4/90
	
** a question for a question**** 
can unicorns play music with their horns?
 I hear that they can
The unicorn taped her hoofs in impatients.
   as if she understands.
then a melody erupted into the air
 as if it came from no where
and filled the world with peace
 and the birds danced in the trees
 and with that she answered his question
and left him with another question.

*****Hidden secrets&******
secrets secrets
buried far
hidden behind these anceint scars

darker darker
deeper you go
so far down, no one dares go.

warning warning
your getting nearer
to those dark secrets I fear.

run run,
get away from those prying eyes
before they see the secrets and the lies.

hide hide
the secrets fly
hiding from the ever searching eye.
12/31/90

******NEW YEAR******

the last night of the year...
 to end all the woes and tears..
the blue moon crosses the sky..
 on the streets the children lie
with the coming of the midnight hour
 a new year is born, and flowers...
make a wish and make it true...
 for it is rare for the moon to be blue
and if you wish is good and pure
 it will come true, I'm sure.
and at the midnight hour the bell is rung
 and 1991 has just begun...
SO Happy New Year to you all...
1/1/91

Poem dedicated to my grandfather who spoke nothing but chinese and
instired bye Alexander:

Dear Grandfather
 the one I could never talk to
now you are gone, I wish, I would have been
 a little better than a friend
I whish I had attempted to know
you a little better
often I wanted to talk to you
 but I never had the time to learn
 the meaning of your words.
But now you are gone
 and all I can call you , is your childs name
for grandfather, I never knew your name

often seen as an old man through
 childish eyes
always there in silence as if waiting
waiting for the day
for the child to see him
 and want to play
 I could not say I love you
 or even a simple thank you
now years later, after you are gone
I have learned the words I should have known
 so "udear grandfather"
 and I hope you understand
 that I really do miss you
  and I wish that you were here
                written by
                 BlackMist 1/14/90

*Were Beasts*
WereBat flies the skies at night
causing people to run in fright
gliding on the wings of death
silent as a baby's breath.

WereTiger, haunts the mountain heights
playing in the star lit night
on silent pads, he stalks his prey
and then he sleeps, all through the day

WereSeal rules the distant seas
chasing fish, and doing as he please.
Teasing those poor old fishermen
stealing their fish, and leaving torn nets to mend

WereWolf we all know and love
who howls at the full moon above
silver is this creatures bane
and his immortality,  is his world wide fame.

**Soul Tugging*** DEDICATED TO DOR'S POEM (untitled)

Set apart from the world
 and yet I live within
I wander through the world
 on a quest I go
I touch the hearts of many
 and tug on their lonely souls
Breaking the chains that bind them
 freeing them from the devils den
and as I leave, I look behind
 at the souls, standing in the sun shine
Then I wander on again
 touching the souls of my friends
I know not why I wander
 nor where I should have been
But I love to see the souls set free
 so I keep a wandering...
1/22/90

*3 words*
he whispers
 I love You
  in my ear
Bringing to
 my eyes.
  a single tear
Listening 
 to those three words
  that I fear
For those are 
   the three words
   I long to hear
But they also
 bring, all the pain
  my heart can't bear.
But he wipes
 away my 
  little tear
And with his love
 he wipes away
  all my pains and fears.
1/20/90

*river of love*
When I met him
 he took my heart
And now we are
 so far apart
I can only wait for the day
 when we are together
And my love for him
 is like a flaming river
Flowing on through
 all the hard times
Burning in
 this heart of mine
1/20/90

**THE RULES**
The rules are there for the breaking
just as I learn the rules, another is in the making
So many rules are broken
 and nothing can be done
cause as fast as they make the rules
we just come along and break them just for fun
they try to tell us what to do
 and what we should not say
but as we go through life
 rules are broken every day.
1/20/90

*silver Eyes*
On a black mare
 with a golden mane
Through these ancient plains I fly
 and by her side
 a friend of mine
runs the black wolf
with the silver eyes
1/20/90
 
*Horse*
Horse
 born to be wild
 born to be free
Horse
 running across the plains
 running without restrains
Horse
 hiding in his hidden valley
 hiding from his human bane
Horse 
 Racing with the winds of time
 Racing to always be free
Horse
 Freely I set you free
 Freely.. you come back to me
1/21/90
 
I woke
 with his name on my lips
 and a faded image of hi in my mind
I wake 
 with a tear in my eye
 and a scar on my heart
I dream
 of the love we shared
 and how it fell apart
I think
 about the joy he gave
 and the terror he left behind
I speak
 no one listens to me
 and no one cares
I fear
  that what was done before
 will yet happen again
I screamed
 and it was but a Nightmare
 broken by a deafening cry
I wake  
 with sun in my eyes
 and love in my heart
I know
 that the Nightmare is forever behind
 and that you are there, and will always love me
1/20/90

The black unicorn with the golden mane
living within this world of flame
 known to all as the IRC Poet
and the stranges unicorn they ever met
who would have thought  that unicorns can be black
or that they could write poems like that
but yet she exists at her gates of hell
writting poems and casting spells 
all who pass, stare and  wonder
who is this unicorn of black thunder.
1/20/90


***Dreamer***

Dreamer, the unicorn of color
 Showing all his rainbow splendor
Head to toe 
 his rainbows flow
And depending on the time of day
 his tail changes color as it sways
Because he's so shy and timid, he likes to stay
 in mysterious lands, so far away
With a rainbow banner on his leg
 and a golden horn on his head
all white but for his mane and tail
 and as he runs.. they leave a rainbow trail. 
the color of the rainbow he was born
 so he is named. Dreamer, the rainbow unicorn.

******The Piper!*******
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow
The Piper's calling you to join him
Dancing in a field of mice
And the children all surround him
As he blows his horn so long
Drawn to him.. bye his mystic song
As he calls, you try to listen
for his music, is but a whisper
Taking you to another land
If his song, you understand
for only those with a childs mind
can you cross the barriers of time
so listen to the music, the piper plays
and travel on, and see a better day
1/17/90

*********The POET*******
Traveling from the realm of reality
 Wandering in the land of fantasy
Glimpsing the creatures of once told tales
 Watching knights in their silver mail
And the white panther in his golden tree
 All these things the Poet sees.
And so she writes these million lines
 Depicting things from across time
Writting of the lands that tales told
 All the people watch, as her stories unfold.
1/15/90

*ZOMBIE*
Zombie walked the dead of night
 And was quite an ugly sight
As he walked around
 Dropping rotten flesh, on the ground
Hunting down the mystic poet
 The little girl who wrote it
The spell that brought him back
 To walk this hell bound track
And so he wanders this lonely world
 Looking for that misty girl
For when he finds her
 She'll send him back
Just rewrite the spell
 And let him sleep at last

Poem dedicated to my grandfather who spoke nothing but chinese and
inspired bye Alexander:

Dear Grandfather
 the one I could never talk to
now you are gone, I wish, I would have been
 a little better than a friend
I wish I had attempted to know
you a little better
often I wanted to talk to you
 but I never had the time to learn
 the meaning of your words.
But now you are gone
 and all I can call you , is your childs name
for grandfather, I never knew your name

often seen as an old man through
 childish eyes
always there in silence as if waiting
waiting for the day
for the child to see him
 and want to play
 I could not say I love you
 or even a simple thank you
now years later, after you are gone
I have learned the words I should have known
 so "udear grandfather"
 and I hope you understand
 that I really do miss you
  and I wish that you were here
                written by
                 BlackMist 1/14/90


*udear means thank you in chinese*



*Warm Fuzzies*
Warm fuzzies all around
Lonely hugs all to be found
Wandering around in the cold
Looking for someone to hold
So heres a fuzzy just for you
In fact here have two.
Now don't you pout
But let those warm fuzzies out
Let them out, here's the key
Do you have a special one for me?
And as you go through life you will see
That all these warm fuzzies are from little old me!!!
*HUG* *HUG* *HUG* *HUG* *HUG* *HUG* *HUG* *HUG* *HUG*

**LD LOVE**
I wonder when my love will start
 Or when it will end
Through we're so far apart
 I know I'll see you again
And I dream of those few days
 When we were together and played
But a few moments in time
 Yet you pledged to forever be mine.
Though the miles keep us apart
 You will always be in my heart
And on my finger is your ring
 And until we're together, I'll keep on dreaming
For one day we'll be together
 And those miles will be gone forever
1/17/90

*MILES AWAY*
I miss you
 With all my heart
And though the miles
 Keep us apart
Each day I think of you
 And remember that day
When I met you
 Then went away
I talk to you almost every day
 I think of the things we did
And what we said
 And how you act like a little kid
Yet I miss you all the more
 When I think of you
And though the miles are between
 Remember I'll always love you....

Poems done by Leonardo and Blackmist*

*dancing in the moon light*

as I stare at the glimmering light of the pale moon light
do I dance with the devil in the freezing cold night
and cause such a hellish fright
as I dance in the mystical fairies light
and to feel the cold wind on my back
as you wander down the midnight track
hearing the howl of the sightless wolves
running with fear from the nightmare's hooves
striking out at the devil's hounds.
as they chase her, across the frozen grounds
and so you see her in the dark of night
dancing the the misty star light
but in the distant you hear the howl..
of those sightless wolves.. forever on the prowl..
1/28/90

*Light at the end of the world*

The moon shined upon the hill top
When all the people walking by. stopped
to see the light from beyond
coming from the silver glowing pond
and from hence the unicorn came
the black one..with the golden mane
as she runs across the  plains
leaving  behind.. a field of flames
such that filled the sky with light
and left the world with a  new life
to see strife no more
until they open the blacken door
behind the door which hell resides
the black unicorn stands beside
guarding the way for all to go
only if they be so stupid or so bold
as to look for fortune or gold
from which all man yearns to hold
until the day that they will see
the black unicorn.. returning for thee
taking with her the silver light
and leaving behind a world black and full of fright
and men with no strength to fight
the coming of the eternal night

************************CUT HERE****************************************

  "Agony claws my mind. I am a statistic, When I first got here I felt very much
alone. I was overwhelmed with grief, and I expected to find sympathy.

   "I found no sympathy. I saw only thousands of others whose bodies were as
badly mangled as mine. I was given a number and placed in a category. the 
category was called 'Traffic Fatalities.'

   "The day I died was an ordinary school day. How I wish I had taken the bus!
But I was too cool for the bus. I remember how I wheedled the car out of Mom. 
'special favor,' I pleaded. 'All the kids drive.' When the 2:50 bell rang
I threw my books in the locker. I was free until 8:40 tomorrow morning!
I ran to the parking lot -- excited at the thought of driving a car and 
being my own boss. FREE!

  "It doesn't matter how the accident happened. I was goofing off -- going to 
fast. Taking crazy chances. But i was enjoying my freedom and having fun. The
last thing I remember was passing an old lady who seemed to be going awfully
slow. I heard a deafening crash and felt a terrific jolt. Glass and steel flew
everywhere. My whole body seemed to be turning inside out. I heard myself 
scream.

     "Suddenly, I awakened. It was very quiet. A police officer was standing
over me. Then I saw a doctor. My body was mangled. I was saturated with blood.
Pieces of jagged glass were sticking out all over. Strange that I couldn't
feel anything. Hey, don't pull that sheet over my head! I can't be dead!
I'm only 17! I've got a date tonight! I'm supposed to grow up and have a 
wonderful life! I haven't lived yet! I can't be dead!

     "Later I was placed in a drawer. My folks had to identify me. Why did
they have to see me like this? Why did I have to look at Mom's Eyes when
she faced the most terrible ordeal of her life? Dad suddenly looked like an
old man. He told the man in charge. 'Yes--He is our son'

    "The funeral was a weird experience. I saw all my relatives and friends
walk toward the casket. They passed by, one by one, and looked at me with
the saddest eyes I've ever seen. Some of my buddies were crying. A few of the
girls touched my hand and sobbed as they walked away. 

   "Please--somebody--wake me up! Get me out of here. I can't bear to
see Mom and Dad so broken up. My grandparents are so wracked with grief
they can barely walk. My brother and sister are like zombies. They move 
like robots. In a daze. Everybody. No one can believe this, and I can't
believe it, either.

      "PLEASE, Don't Bury Me! I'm not dead! I have a lot of living to do!
I want to laugh and run again. I want to sing and dance.
Please don't put me in the ground. I promise if you give me just one more
chance, God, I'll be the most careful driver in the whole world. All I 
 want is one more chance. Please, God, I'm only 17."

THIS IS YET ANOTHER EDITION TO THE IRC POET SOCIETY...
THIS I ANOTHER PART TO MY HELL FILE
I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS>>
BYE BYE FOR NOW
BLACKMIST THE BLACK DREAMING UNICORN
THE IRC POET
life sucks
school sucks
just everything sucks

*******
**A MIDNIGHT'S WINTER DREAM**
when the days were cold and full of snow
I long for your arms to protect me from the cold
to embrace thee with a tender kiss
and to be with you forever..is my wish
I love you even though
you are so far away, over all this snow
and as the day goes by
to you, my heart will fly
2/8/90


*****
*moment in time*

life is but a moment in space
when the dream is gone its a lonelier place
and as the empty days go flying by
I can see the dreams in my mind's eye
hidden deep within a creavice
hidden from its human menace
for man will drive it away
leaving only space for the reality of the day
and the world is such a lonely place
without dreams, and only empty space
2/8/90
****
**THE DANCE OF THE UNICORN****
Quiet she walks like the night
playing with the water sprites
and in her eyes the spirits dance
and the images of the unicorn, prance
and in the wind a song is heard
from a little night bird
and she walks like the silent night
dancing with the unicorn in the moon light
****
**WANDERING THOUGHTS**
musing on a lonely day
wondering what happened today
all the hours I spent with thee
seem to run and flee
and I do not remember all the things
or all the things of which we dream
and so I sit here musing
and wonder what I'm losing
but If I turn my head so I never see
what this strange world is doing to me
and so I sit here thinking
and I just go on dreaming
as this world tears me apart
and leaves me with an empty heart
2/11/90
*****
**THE DISAPPEARANCE OF DREAMS**
shadows fall and we are left alone
and the mystic secrets are left unknown
standing in the fading darkness
waiting for its mistress
and soon it will be the very last
and nothing is as it seems
for it is all but a dream
and the dragon folds its mighty wings
and drifts back into its worlds of dreams
where the world has no end
and darkness will rule again
for the dragon is made of ancient gold
and has seen the times that tales told
where the good and the light would win
and unicorns could be your friend
and the knights that were so bold
would try to steal the dragon's gold
but this all happened in the past
for soon the dragon shall be the last
for as the shadows fall away
we see once again that we have been betrayed
for without the darkness, the dreams are lost
and our sanity is the cost
for without our dreams, we must face the reality of lies
and with that... all our hearts will die
and so the dragon will be the very last
for like the darkness, we will fade into the ancient past.
2/8/90

***Snow Face***
Snow on the plains looks like a beautiful face
but the winds erase everything..and leaves not a trace
as the unicorn goes racing by
on the mountain tops she flies
across the surface of that beautiful face
to a long forgotten place
and left behind is but a memory
of that beautiful face in the scenery
and the unicorn gallops on...
across the frozen land and the icy pond
on to his destination
looking for the Book of Generations....

Greetings from the black dreaming unicorn 
with my golden hoofs and black crystal horn
at the gates of hell I reside
guarding these ancient gates with pride
Black as night, I rule this land
and the mystic poet is who I am
A nightmare to all who know me
but your soul, I can set free
I'm the master of the dead and the night
as I sit here in the pale moon light
SilverEyes is my baby black wolf
and the baby unicorn's name is Palpus
these 2 are my friends
who also resides in my hellish den
I hope you like it here..
in my land of fear
and I hope you get your wish
 as I disapear into the mist

**************CUT HERE*****************
**Colliding dreams**
The dreams of day and night collide..
I no longer know where to hide.
In the depths of the shadow she lurks..
Hidden in the mist and murk
On golden fear my nightmare flies
Waiting for my demise
So each night I stay awake
But my nightmare sits and waits
To haunt my nightly dreams
And I wake with a scream
And no matter how I try
The nightmare keeps on riding
2/6/90

**TO BE A HORSE....*
To be a horse.. 
 If only I could be a horse... 
To run free
 From the bonds that hold me
To be free of the herd which the man controls
 But then you get lonely.
For a horse always needs company
 To go back to the herd means
Going back to the bonds of man
 No I don't want to be a horse.
A fox perhaps, but not a horse.
 A fox runs free in the wind
  A solitary animal
But always hidding
 Maybe a cat instead
They come and go as they please
 Not bonded to man
Nor chased through the trees
 Yes a cat I would like to be
To have freedom to come
 And go as I please
To never have to hide and run
 Yes the life of a cat is what I want
*89*

**Silver Wolf***
The black wolf with the silver eyes
Watches the world go by
But yet, he has those magic eyes
To see through your human lies
To see the future and the past
To predict where you will end up at last
But yet he can not see his own future
So he goes through life knowing the destiny of his friends
But can only guess where his life will end.

Black as night, I rule this land
and the mystic poet is who I am
A nightmare to all who know me
but your soul, I can set free
I'm the master of the dead and the night
as I sit here in the pale moon light
SilverEyes is my baby black wolf
and the baby unicorn's name is Palpus
these 2 are my friends
who also resides in my hellish den
I hope you like it here..
in my land of fear
and I hope you get your wish
 as I disapear into the mist

 		Poet of West 23rd Street
 		~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 	The poet walked across 23rd street,
 	Bucking traffic,
 	Over on the west side of town,
 	The bad side of town.
 	The slums and the tenements,
 	Square and rigid and brick-red or concrete-gray,
 	Seemed too hard and too harsh
 	To sustain his delicate presence.
 	Four hard-lead pencils jutted, points upward,
 	From his shirt pocket.
 	Beneath his arm he carried a cardboard folder,
 	Full with papers,
 	Some written on,
 	Some not.
 	He walked across 23rd street,
 	Bucking traffic,
 	Toward the blue-and-pink-painted high-rise.
 	He watched it grow above him as he approached,
 	An edifice,
 	A monolith,
 	A monument to the modern day.
 
 	And he drew it;
 	Drew it with words,
 	Carefully chosen;
 	A picture more complete than pictures can be,
 	Allowing more to the eyes than eyes can see.
 	He drew it with words,
 	Carefully chosen.
 
 	The poet walked beside the building in blue and pink.
 	He passed large display picture windows,
 	Wreathed in red neon,
 	Framing half-nude female mannequins in seductive poses and red leather,
 	Ready to sell it all;
 	The meat counter in the supermarket that was the city.
  	He walked through the door,
 	Into the dark and musky interior.
 	A woman with dark gossamer hair and violet eyes
 	Led him through the hallways,
 	Through dense beaded curtains,
 	Past closed doorways.
 	She led him to a small room with a bed,
 	And there undressed for him.
 	she knelt, nude, at the foot of the bed,
 	Sweeping her silken hair about her perfect breasts
 	And resting her hands lightly on her slender thighs.
 	He sat, clothed and cross-legged,
 	At the head of the bed,
 	and looked into her soft violet eyes.
 
 	And he drew her;
 	Drew her with words,
 	Carefully chosen;
 	A picture more complete than pictures can be,
 	Allowing more to the eyes than eyes can see.
 	He drew her with words,
 	Carefully chosen.
 
 	The poet and the whore talked,
 	Together,
 	Talked of living and of life and of love,
 	And of her.
 	But the hour was late;
 	She soon tired, and fell asleep,
 	Her head in the poet's lap.
 	He stood, after stroking her dark hair for a few moments,
 	And lay her head gently upon the pillow.
 	He kissed her, tenderly, on the cheek.
 	He lay a hundred-dollar bill on her pale velvet shoulder,
 	And left without a word.
 	He caught an eastbound bus,
 	And sat down next to an old man with sliver hair.
 	And eyes of green that glittered in the light.
 	The old man leaned forward in his seat,
 	As if the bus did not move fast enough to suit him,
   As if her himself traveled just a few steps beyond the front of the vehicle.
 	He leaned heavily on his cane, and, every now and then,
 	He smiled to himself,
 	At some magnificent internal jest.
 	The poet watched him,
 	Watched him rock slowly back and forth in his seat
 	And hum off-key Sabbath melodies to no-one in particular.
 
 	and the poet drew him;
 	Drew him with words,
 	Carefully chosen;
 	A picture more complete thean pictures can be,
 	Allowing more to the eyes than eyes can see.
 	he drew him with words,
 	Carefully chosen.
 
 	The poet exited the bus on 23rd street,
 	Over on the east side of town,
 	The good side of town.
 	The houses and the villas,
 	White and yellow and covered with ivy,
 	Seemed too tender and too delicate
 	To susatin his harsh presence.
 	He walked across 23rd street,
 	Bucking traffic,
 	Over on the east side of town.
 	A semi, trying to beat the lights,
 	Lurched through an intersection an eighth of a block away.
 	then the poet was gone.
 	Four hard lead pencils, one broken,
 	Rolled disinterestedly away,
 	And white paper birds,
 	Some written on,
 	Some not,
 	Fluttered from their cardboard nest at the wind's command;
 	Scattered amongst the houses of the people they were meant for;
 	People whe were meant to read them, and to understand.
 
 	and they were pictures,
 	Drawn with words,
 	Carefully chosen;
 	Pictures more complete than pictures can be,
 	Allowing more to the eyes than eyes care to see.
 	Pictures drawn with words,
 	Carefully chosen.
 		By James Kyle Riff!!!!!!

thank you for your time....
and forever keep on dreaming.
Love always BlackMist the Irc poet in hell.

***********************cut here**************************
 
 ***SILENCE RULES IN HELL*** (another version)
 Silence rules in hell
   and no one speaks a word
    a spell is spoken
     and all the words are heard
 Silence rules in hell
   and a cry is heard
    and the spell is broken
     by a single word
 
 ******Candle's flame******
 A candle burns and flickers
     waving before you
      and glitters
 Hypnotized by the tiny flame
    no matter how you try
  it will always catch your gaze
 as you stare into it's depths
     your mind wanders
  and you think of other things
 of places you have been
  and places you could have gone
      and will never see
 and the light flickers
    your mind wanders
   and the flame glows
 Dreaming of a love gone by
  and of love just past by
   wishing for another try
 and the flame flickers
   your mind wanders
  and the winds blow
    the candle dies
 but yet you still ponder
  and your mind wanders
 the dreams drift into the past
  and reality takes their place
  why do they always go so fast?
 
 ****Dreaming of freedom*****
       In my dreams
     I'm in a distant land
 where the master of the world
     holds me in his hand
      greeting me with
       all his love
     as he hands me
   a crystal white dove
  so in my hands I hold
  a tiny dove of white gold
     and I release it
      into the air
      with it goes
      all my fears.
 
 
       ***THE ORACLE***
 The Wisest creature in the world
 at his feet, the ancient mist swirls
 Over mountains you must go
 fight your way through blinding snow
 Find the temple with the silver portal
 and search for the ancient oracle
  think long and choose wise
  and ask the one question
    to decide your life
 Ask your one question,
  and he'll give you a rhyme.
 decifer his message as you will
  for the true answer will be seen in time...
 
     **KNIGHTS OF CAMELOT**
 The days were long in Camelot
 when all the knights would come
 to the king of white lightning
 marching to the rhythm of the drums
 on steeds of strength and grace
 the knighs shining in their place
 sitting around the circular stone table
 from sir lancelot, and sir lionel
 to sir galahad, and sir gabriel
 They were all shining knights
 of the kings round table
 
 *THE DEVEL GETS YOUR SOUL**
 Why fight it
 the troubles have no end
 you push them away
 and they come back again
 I stand upon the edge of time
 and listen to the wind
 I search deep into my soul
 looking for my sins
 and I see the broken hearts
 and the spoken lies
 So as I slowly close my eyes
 A lonely soul, silently cries.
 So Why fight it
 It never ends
 for your soul goes to he who waits
 and lives for all your many sins
 
 *being the wind*
 If I can only be
 what you can feel
 but never see
 something you can never hold
 but can ride if your so bold
 from the north it brings the cold
 blowing before it, crystal white snow
 and from the south the warmth and rain
 which makes the grass grow on these frozen plains
 If I could only be
 that which is forever free
 never held in a human grasp
 but tickes you, and makes you laugh.
 
 *Grains in an hour glass*
 Tiny grains of rice
 in a hour glass
 falling silently 
 showing how slow time will pass
 each grain is a life
 going on it's way
 passing through the hour glass
 flowing through the day
 time pours on
 and you can not stop the grains
 sliding through the hour glass
 falling like drops of rain
 
 **Talking to a grave***
 Mother I hope you can hear me
 I wonder if you can
 mother can you see me
 before your grave I stand
 I hope that you can hear me
 the words I never said
 now that your lying there
 sleeping with the dead
 I never had the nerve to say
 those three little words to you
 but now you have gone away
 and left me speaking to your tomb
 so mother I hope you can hear me
 as I speak these three words to you
 far away you rest in green pastures..
 sleeping beneath these skies of blue

****************************cut here*************************
*men are jerks.*
	
Love is hard to find
Good men are few and far behind
there are those who stomp on your heart
and play nasty tricks with your mind
there are those that romance you to death
then they just want to take you to bed
where are the men that really care
the ones who have enough love to share
I search for so long
but love is hard to find
so many men that use you
that like messing with your mind
will I ever find the right one
who is kind, sweet, and likes to have fun
who will always care
with who, my life, I can share.

*double personality*
Temporary insanity
I plead the fifth
I did not do it
I`m sure of this
cops are on my ass
and I did not do a thing
The more things seem to change
the more they stay the same
I never do a thing
but I always take the blame
he did it, not I
that person on the other side
I can not stop him
he comes on a whim
he flirts with all the girls
and terrorizes all the world
then he returns to the other side, see?
So I plead.... INSANITY!!

*WELCOME TO MY HOUSE OF HORROR*

Enter the door if you dare.
And face your greatest fear
INSANITY is the price
When you`re faced with giant mice.
Welcome to my house of horror.
Before you, your worst fears tower..
You are trapped inside, 
There is no place to hide
Beside the red flowing stream...
Don`t try to scream
This is only a dream
Welcome to my house of dreams!!!
Here, there, night mares all around
and you wonder what happened to the ground
Welcome to Insanity
This is the place to be
There is but one escape
Straight through death`s open gates.
So Welcome to my house of fear
    ENTER If you Dare......


*WALK ON*

Walk on...
fear not the final death
if you know the way
stay on the green path
and never look away

Walk on....
Walk on towards those golden gates
where your friends and family waits
step not left and or right
stay on the path to the glowing light
to the left is the mist of purity
wander from the path you lose your soul for eternity

Walk on...
For behind you waits
the soul taker at her gates
in the shadows, she lurks there
behind her stands her minions of fear.
Waiting for you to turn from the path
And fall into her deadly grasp

Walk on...
Walk on the green mist path
to eternal summers golden gates
for behind you, you hear her laugh
the soul taker, and hell awaits

*lifes questions*
As I slip farther into darkness
My mind screams "No I must live"
But another voice whispers, "What do you have to live for?"
The love of my live, my boy friend I say..
The voice responds coldly, What boyfriend, He left you for another..
My mother and my Family?
What family, they died years ago
What about all my friends
They don`t care, they have their own lives to live
Who will take care of my cats, my dogs..
No one, they will die.
Then I shall live and you will go away
As long as someone needs me, then I will stay
	So goodbye..
Then I struggles out of darkness
back into the morning light
greeted by a cat licking my face
 and my dog, by my side..
 

*MERMAID*               (slightly strange but that is normal for me)

I am just a mermaid
 sitting on my rock
luring men to their deaths
 upon these jagged rocks
only those who have no desires
 and have never known a passion`s fire
can resist my enchanting song
 but even they can not resist for long
for all people have a secret desire
 even if they have not seen passion`s fire
I am just a mermaid, Beautiful like a flower
 defenseless except for my song and illusionary powers
Break the illusion and you will see
 That I`m just a creature from the sea..
On calm days the wind will hold its breath
 As I call those silly men, to their final death......

 *Mountain of love*
 Standing on a mountain
 Looking in your eyes
 Kissed your lips so tenderly
 Beneath the star lit skies
 As I search behind your eyes
 I wonder what they hide...
 All your secrets locked up tight
 But your heart I wish to know
 And learn the secrets locked from sight
 And hope our relationship will still grow
 In your warm enbrace I stand
 My heart struggles with indecision
 As my mind tries hard to understand.....
 But yet you hold me still
 As we watch the sparkling city lights 
 You shield me from the winter chill
 As we stand within these mountain heights.

*Sea Horse*
 on the beach he stands
 a myth as black as onyx sand
 a mystical sea horse that only legends hold
 and as rare as dragon's gold
 frolicking in the swirling waves
 playing in the mysterious sea caves
 running across the sea he flies
 and his sea horse magic keeps him safe and dry
 his beauty is as ageless as the sea
 and his eyes are pearly white, like the moon above the willow tree.
 prancing before the mistress of the night
 the night sea horse, glowed with a silver white
 and with a single touch the black steed ran away
 forever running across the sea, before the coming day.

*vampire*
Creaping up behind me
I hear a whisper of foot steps
I turn back to look
there is no one there to see
tiny tendrils of mist swirls
they gather, spin, and whirl
the mist forms.. and he stands there
feeding on my growing fear
frozen within his hypnotizing stare
but yet he is caught by the sun, unaware.
for in his eyes I can see
The coming of the day to be
as it reaches out its golden rays
and I am freed from his deadly gaze
he turns and runs away 
returning to the mist from which he came
and as I great the morning sun...
the horrors of the night, are all undone....

*8am class*
Each day I sit and wonder
Just where I should have been
Wondering what I'm doing here
And what class I'm sitting in.
Wonder what the teacher is saying
I don't have the slightest clue
Who are all these strange people..
Boy school, is such a zoo....

 *SOUL EATER* (poem about a vampire)

Click, Click, and even beat
Darkness stalks the abandoned street
Crash... and a cat scuttles b y
And I stare and wonder at its glowing eyes
Silence broken by an eerie bay
And I tremble in fear, for the hell hounds are on their way.
The moon rises slowly, and the mist begins to creep
Swirling, twisting, falling right before my feet
A shadow flickers, catches my eye
>From the swirling mist, a deamon rises...
Frozen in a state of fear I stand.
Knowing that the king of death, is this black clad man...
He is not like the ones that tales told
He drinks not the sweet tasting blood, But eats the human soul.,
He does not listen to my silent pleed
For now is his time to feed
And all I can do is pray.
As he takes my soul away.
3/27/91

  *KUROS*
	
Kuros of the dragon fire
Full of dreams and desires...
A silver dragon on the shield he bore
Above his head, a falcon soared
and his only weapon is in disguise
as a rubber chicken that attracks black nasty flies
Across the country he rides his steed
Silver slashed on black patched knees
Forever searching for fair maidens in distress
or just fair maidens who are undressed
so he rides the country side, chicken flying free
on his silver black, wild steed.

******* WELCOME ONCE AGAIN FROM THE IRC POET***************
This is number 200... the end of hell file 2.. I hope you enjoyed
all the poems i have send..for this is my very final one..
(until i decide to be inspired again to write which i am not right now)
so.... enjoy your self
*Dream on... live forever... and die in peace... in the end the only
peace is in your dreams.... *
*the black unicorn bows before thee...and wish you safe passage within your 
dreams*4/4/91
*******************CUT HERE*********************************

WELCOME to the final end
I am quitting once again
it is not my fault..
that I ran out of things to write about....
Hell 2 file is finally done....
and I had a hell of a lot of fun....
now it is time to set the sails free
as the dreamer sails the seven seas 
The Poets black banner rides the wid
and no one knows where she will end.
and with her, all the tales go
of black unicorns, and dragon's gold.
Past the gates of hell she sails...
along a forgotten misty trail
looking for new adventures, and romance..
taking her hand in fortune, and in chance...
But when she returns in the end...
She'll have new tales to write about again...
So the poet is not gone forever..
For no one really believes that i could quit..ever.

*the black unicorn of love bows before thee... and off into the mist
she flees.... to run amoung the ancient trees.... to race the falcon
flying on the breeze... forever running... wild and free...*

    *The Celestial Unicorn*
The world turned cold and frigid
and the day turned into night
all the world was frozen
covered by snows eternal white
The unicorn walked this frozen land
so pearly white and so grand
tired of the never ending winter drizzel
he layed beside a frozen tree
he fell asleep beneath some freezing crystals.
and so hey layed, frozen in ice, waiting to be set free.
sleeping for a thousand generations
dreaming of a warmer destination

then one night in a distant village
then a little girl dreamed, not once but twice
about a mountain valley holding
of an ancient unicorn frozen in a mound of ice.
so she set out across the snow
searching for the creature, with the horn of gold
and she dug beneath the snow
and so she hound him there
trapped inside his icey globe
as he slept for a thousand years....

melted from his frozen prism
he then entered yet another prison
for man used him as they would
to pull sleighs and carry wood
until one night, the girl came agian
for he was her only friend
she cut the ropes around his feet
and opened the gates and set him free.
try as they would, the men could not catch
the running unicorn, or the girl on his back
and that night they rode away
flying through the milky way
leaving behind the winter and the bars
to live forever in heaven among the distant stars.


*The horse in the moon*

The Horse in the moon
 and the stars up above
fell from the heavesn
 in search of his stolen love
her soul lost in the swirling mist
 caught between heaven and the abyst
the horse in the moon
 in search for his love
walked the green path
 calling for his golden dove
called from the green path
 by the ancient one
who calls the last of every breed
 when their time on eath is done.
The one, tricked bye the minions of night
 called the buck skinned mare, the golden one.
the horse in the moon
 the rainbow horse
called on equus
 and all his force.
to call his lady from the mist
 to undo the wrong that was done.
retrieve her lost soul from the abyst...
 and save his earth born son
and so he called her soul name.
 and from the mist she came
golden as the sun above
 she came back to the ones she loved
and together they walkked the path to the sun
 to live in the courts of the one hundred and one
by the side of equus, the shining sun.

*REFLECTIONS*
Staring at an image
I wonder what you see
looking in a mirror
my reflection staring back at me
A million times I see myself
and I see nothing special there
a tiny girl with big brown eyes..
and long dark wavy hair...
a little short, but kind of sweet
and addicted to chocolate treats
so what do you see, that I don't see?
reflecting in my eyes.
can you see the heart beneath
or where my spirit flies
Staring at my image
I look at what I see
and I sit and wonder
How I look to thee....
4/17/91
 
My mind is at a blank
and I just can't find the words
in the wilderness I sit
watching the flying birds
herds of elk go walking by
with their ever watchful eye
and the baby eagle in its nest
flutters its wings, as it learns to fly
and the wild herd of horses
all the mares, with their stallion pride.
charge down the mountain from the spiraling heights 
and then run up the distant other side.
and the squirrel playing in his tree
and the falcon flying on the breeze
all these images fill my mind
and the words come flooding back
watching the world go by me
as I wander these mountain tracks.
And as the night comes to an end
In the distant the howl of a wolf is heard
and in a near by aspen tree
the cooing of a sleeping bird.
4/19/91

I have always been there
 and I shall always be
look into your heart
 and tell me what you see
I present myself
 in different ways
you feel my standing there
 but still you turn away
and no matter where you go
 or what you seem to say
I will still be waiting
 for you to see the day
and though it might not seem
 that I am always there
Just turn around and look behind,
 you'll still find me waiting here.
4/23/91

Sailing across the distant sea
listening to the waves
whispered tales, they speak to me
of lovely creatures and hidden caves
far beneath the ocean deep
the mermaid sings, and widows weep
beware you foolish traveler
when you sail the turning sea
when you hear the mermaid sing
turn your ship and flee.
for if you travel further
a widow your wife, soon will be
and your ship, as your banner flies,
will be sailing, the bottom of the sea.
4/23/91

Across the sea I fly
in my ballon, across the sky
far away from the reach of man
peering at the endless land
beneath I see, a world in flame
and I know that man's to blame.
And as I watch the worlds demise
I hear salvation in a rebel's cry
for with the going of the past
a new race is born at last
and  recreates what was undone
before the glory of the rising sun.
4/23/91

listen to the wind
blowing across the sea
whispered tales of lands unknown
out there waiting for me.
Around this world I travel
across the burning sky
atop my floating vessel
the poet's black banner flies.
many lands I've seen
to new land I now go
from lands of constant sun
to places of blowing snow.
And the wind still takes me
to all the lands unknown,
Until I finally find a place
which I can live and call home.
4/23/91

If all roads lead to paradice
then tell me where I went wrong
I've walked the roads of endless dreams
but still I've walked so long.
Paradice I have yet to find
like a lost image in my drifting mind.
and as time slips away
and I live yet another day
I walk down this lonely road
it seems to have no end
it's awefully straight and narrow
and there are no curves or bends
so does this road end in paradice
or was it all a lie
or did I not watch wehre I was going
and missed paradice, as I went striding by.
4/23/91

Greetings once again from the mystic poet from hell.
I hope these poems spark some sort of memories or feelings
in all who read these.  And I hope you enjoy reading them,
and have a nice night/day. 
bye bye
from:
BlackMist the black dreaming unicorn.
*late into the night I dream,
 And in the dead of night I scream,
 For by some distant Island stream,
 The unicorn died within the dying moon beam.*
******************************cut here***********************

*sadness of the heart*

Did you always have those sad eyes,
And did I never see
The sadness in your heart
Or did you hide it from me?

Thinking back in time
When it was just you and me
Was your laughter true and real
And did I set your sadness free?

I remember your tender smile
And all your laughter too
But always just behind
The sadness was showing through.

And try as I would
To set your sadness free
You turned me back each time I tried
And in the end you lost me

And so I just remember
An image of your face
Longing to find happiness
But the sadness left it's eternal trace.
5/7/91

*passion burns the heart*

Passion burns
 a flaming flower.
The lady fair
 locked in her ivory tower.

Breaking hearts
 is what she does.
For she knows not
 the meaning of true love.

Come and sit
 beneath her tower.
And fell her ancient
 alluring power.

But don't dare look
 into her endless eyes.
Cause you'll lose your heart,
 as  the silver moon begins to rise.

But she'll run in fear
 from your loving heart.
Cause in the end
 it will be torn apart.

Many hearts she's stolen
 broken hearts were left behind.
And the guilt plays tricks
 with her tortured mind.

And in the distant night
 a torch was thrown
Within the ancient halls,
 of her ivory home.

And passion burns
  the ivory tower.
With the rising smoke
 goes the flaming flower.

And with her goes
 the broken dreams
Like rose petals,
 floating down an island stream.
5/5/91

*Love leaves.*
How long will you leave me
for how long will you go
Will you be back with me
before the winter's snow
for away you go
across the land and sea
and each day I wonder
will you remember me.
Or will you find another
to hold beneath the trees,
So how long will you go
how far will you stray
will you ever come back to me
and hold me yet another day?
5/9/91

Red sun rise, Black sun set
And once again, I have met with death.
He comes in many different shapes and sizes
like things I've never known.
He comes to shake my living soul
and chill me to the bones.
But yet he can not have me
For I have yet a life to live
He can not have that part of me.
And my soul, I will not give.
So even though, He comes an goes
He never lets his anger show.
For in the end, he leaves again
heading for his dreary den
and I still hold, my shaken soul
Like an ancient pot of irish gold.
And death plots and plans the day.
When he'll finally make you give your soul away.

*REQUESTED BY ZOMBIE*
 Hi! Could you write a poem about a zombie, who was a child-murderer
 in life, and now as a revenant he hides out during
 the day and at night mindlessly stalks the roads for
 small children to molest and murder. ?? thanks...
*************************************************** 
 *the fate of a murderer*
 
Late into the night he plot
an evil smirk upon his face
how to kill that whining tot
and leave not a single trace
 
Crying in the silent night
he made himself be known
the child that took fright
at the stranger in his home.

In the dead of night he stole
into the baby's room
with an axe, he slit its throat
and with this evil act was doomed.
 
But first he made the baby cry
hit him once or twice
he gloated as the baby died
with its body all cut and diced.

When his deed was found
off to death himself was bound
within a chair of electric rods
and a priest, asking for his last words to god...
 
He laughed at death, and insulted the gods,
as his life came to its shocking end
and he was punished by the lords
cause he died laughing at his sins.

The man was slain, his body lain
beneath a pile of stone
But He was told, before his bones were cold
to rise and walk again.
 
Cursed by the gods, to walk in death
A zombie he was made
molesting all the children
and practicing his evil trade.

So each night the zombie walks
longing for the death, he could not keep
looking for a child, he walks within the darkness 
to Hunt and never sleep.
 
He hunts by night
And hides by day
Hidden deep within,
His shallow dusty grave.
 
Each night he relives
the terror of his act
a child falls, each time he calls
beneath his bloody axe.
 
So be wary when you sleep,
And know that this is his fate,
To walk the endless nights
and never to pass through heavens gates.
 
And if you have a child,
that cries through out the night.
Silence the babe if you can,
or keep him out of sight.

And if it is late at night.
Watch your infant while it sleeps
cause if he finds your child,
Your child will be chopped meat.
           Written by BlackMist the IRC Poet..

*crow*
Hello Hello you silly crow
Just how fast can you go
Can you tell my why the winds so cold
and where is the blowing snow

Hello hello you silly crow
tell me what you know
of lands forgotten long ago
where the Unicorn still roams...

Hello hello you silly crow
Just how fast can you go
on your wings of black ash gold
Can you take me home???
6/91

Dreaming dreams of distant places
where the black unicorn races
over trees and lakes and streams
chasing after a fading dream
abover her flies the black winged crow
going whereever the wind should blow
he watches over the unicorn
pure black with the golden horn
together they travel across the land
for on a twisted path she stands
watching the crow in the sky
and wonders where her future lies...
6/91

Angels weep their silent tears
for its been a hundred years
since i`ve laid down by your side,
and looked into the sea behind your eyes
but each night I dreamed
of laying by a sparkling stream
curled up within your warm embrace
looking for the love, shining in your face
walking silently, hand and hand
in the shadow woods we walk
together we will always stand
there`s no need to speak or talk..
and even though we are apart
I love you with all my heart
so each night we`ve slept
an angel softly wept
for love so far apart
grows strained and breaks the heart...
so hold me in your arms tonight
beneath the dancing moon light
look into the sea behind my eyes
and find the place where my heart does fly
and I shall wait for that day
when you`ll come back to me and stay
so hold me in your arms tonight
protect me from the chilling night
and as I lay down by your side
remember all the love you feel inside.

Hello.. this is one more quick poem, it was a 
request by ZZZ (on irc) to write a poem about the
pain of breaking up with someone (or someone breaking up with you)
thank you... Blackmist the black dreaming unicorn.
***************CUT HERE**************************
*broken heart*

I sit and wonder
Why you cared
Why we had the love
  We shared
Where you went,
 And Why you left.
I hope your happy
 And you did whats best.
But since your gone
 Don't come back
Stay far away
 On your love questing track.
Keep looking for what you lost
For my heart was the cost
You broke it once
You broke it twice
Now its your turn
To pay the painful price
She'll break your heart
And tell you lies
Then you'll be asking the questions,
Of what happened and why?
You'll wonder why it hurts so much,
When she leaves you in a rut, 
And when your heart is broke in two.
Don't expect me to feel sorry for you.

220+ poems that you do not already have .. just email me
and i will mail you what ever poems you are currently missing
and without further procrastination.. here is my newests...
***************************************************************


*Portrait*

This is a picture of you
Reading this poem.
Concentrate.
on the movement of your eyes
as you watch the glowing letters
scroll slowly up your screen.
As you blink, to relieve the strain on your eyes..
while you stare intently at your glowing screen...

Feel..
The  keyboard, your fingers
as they move unconciously,
across the hard keys, and hit
the delete key.
Focus on the particular way
Your hair falls, The damp scent of hair spray
The placement of your feet,
Numb because you have forgoten to move them,,
Now tingling with feeling cause you have
thought to move them.

Hear..
The sounds that suround you..
the ticking of the clock,
 the steps of someone walking by.
the branch of the tree outside your window
tapping on the glass, waiting for you to let it in..
the faint buzz coming from the back of your computer..

Imagine yourself
ten feet away, and look back
at your body position
hunched over a key board,
Ridgid and still, The ache
of your neck and back from lack of movement.
Note, the expression on your face,
Blank,  as though hypnotized by the blinking 
lights. Staring into nothingness
aware of nothing but your screen
oblivious to the world around you
or the fact that your friend is trying 
desprately to talk to you..

This is a portrait,
Of yourself, as seen by yourself (and others)
this portrait is finished,
when you sign off and walk
away from your computer,
and once again become part
 of the real world around you.

7/17/91


Shadows fill the valley
as the night draws to an end
light seeps into the crevasses
and day returns again
as the sun peeks over the edge
and lights the valley down below
the unicorn standing in her pastures
begins to glitter and glow
and the mist that wanders the fields at night
gather around the gleaming unicorn
she salutes the rising sun,
then walks into the mist
as she leaves her nightly pastures
a new day is born....

*******************************CUT HERE*************

Copywrite 7/18/91 by Blackmist The irc Poet

*Freedom Of The Black Unicorn*

Envision a unicorn
black as night
With head held high
black beauty in flight

Sprouting from her crown
spirilling through the sky..
A horn of twisted gold..
through your dreams she`ll fly..

Running across the land of dreams
her golden hoofs sparkle and glow
Racing across the mystic mountain tops..
she plays in the icey snow

The golden bridle is just a myth.
It will not hold her to thee
No hand may touch her golden mane
No master`s voice does she heed

Free to roam the earth by day
and through your dreams at night
If you are so lucky, you might get to see
the black unicorn playing in the moon light

Captured by her beauty
try to catch her if you dare
But be wary of her evil heart
or getting caught by her hypnotizing stare


In dreams you will see her
Magestic with her horn of twisted gold..
Playing in her mountain snow
beauty for the bold to behold..

   *The Lonely Road Of Life*

 last night I had a dream
 a dream I`ve had before
 I dream I`m walking down a path
 my friends are there, but walk silently past
 I reach out, and there is nothing there
 and I wonder, as they blankly stare
 past me, eyes intent on  another place
 and I know I`m not wanted in their space
 So I walk down this path
 darkness ahead, darkness behind
 and confusion rules my mind...
 Mist hides my view on either side
 I know not where I`m going
 or why I even try
 Maybe I know in my heart
 somewhere there is blue sky..
 So each night I dream
 of friends, that will never be
 A road that never ends
 a life with just me..
 and as I walk this lonely path
 my friends are left behind
 I wish I was not so lonely
 as confusion rules my mind....
 *
 *
    *silent cries*
 I call in the night
 to ears that will never hear
 The echo of those three words
 whispered into the empty air

 I reach out to hold
 what I wave no more
 late into the night I call
 and wonder whats left to live for

 my arms have no one to hold
 and those ears do not hear my call
 so I shall live forever lonely
 within these silent halls..
7/22/91
 *
*pulling my strings to my heart*
 Tugging on my heart
 you knew just what to do
   you made me laugh
   you made me cry
   you made me happy 
 just to be alive

 Then you cut the strings
 and let my heart fall apart
   now who will make me laugh
   now that you made me cry
   who will fix the heart
   who will fix the hurt
 created by your lies..
7/23/91
 *
*a friend dies*

 Hello my friend
 it is so nice to see you again
 I never knew you had so many friends
 is this a party just for you?
 why are you dressed up
 in a suit and tie
 and what is that red stuff on your cheek
 You really should get up
 quit laying on that bed..
 all your friends are waiting
 now quit acting like your dead.
 They are saying such nice things
 I never knew they cared
 Hey stop what you are doing
 Do not close that lid..
 Wake up, tell them you are here
 don`t let them close the lid....
 how can you be dead
 why just the other day
 we made plans for traveling
 to come or go or stay
 now your gone forever...
 and you never said goodbye

*THE DREAMLORD AND THE DREAMER*     POEM DEDICATED TO JOKER/THE DREAMLORD

Welcome to his world of dreams
beyond the walls of midnight
where imagination rules
and reality is hidden by the night.

Enter through your dreams
for there are no doors or gates
Walk on through to this forgotten land
for here the DreamLord waits...

>From your world of Science
Where dreams are all forgotten
Lost is this world of impossibility
and the land is dead and rotten.
********************************************
Through the mist she stumbles
A trespasser to this land
Breaking through the barriers
between two worlds she stands.

In the distance she hears the thunder
and in the sky she sees the darkened cloud
and the heavens release their drops of life
and awaken the barren grounds...

Plant grow into existance
as only she has ever seen
for with a thought she turned the world
into her land of dreams

She sits beneath a willow tree
protected from the rain
As she watches the graceful flight
of A silver tailed Crane.
******************************

He runs through the mist
screaming his defiance
searching for the dreamer
in this ancient world of science

Her presence he can sence
across his world he runs...
leaving behind a sparkling trail
of millions of tiny suns....

The world is turning green
with the coming storm
for in this world of science
a new dreamer has been born

He finds her in the mist
She waits beneath a tree 
He makes his presence known,
for only the dreamer holds the key.

Mane of living black
and hide of silver gray
and to his mysterious eyes
her stare will surely stray

She feels herself drawn
into those wells of night
a soul lost in their depths
searching for the light

with a blink he wakes her
and she grabs his silky mane
then on his back she rides
the steed that no man can tame

on the mist of dreams he flies
and  she feels the life within
the world around her filled with life
as the forgotten land begins to mend

Through a wall of mist he runs
into another land he flies
a castle of crystal white
towers climbing to the sky....

At the gates he pauses
and here she does dismount
walking with the unicorn
she enters the world she dreamed about...

To save this ancient world
she holds the single key
forget her world of science
and let her dreams run free....

Silver gray like the mist of life
accross this land he f,ies
lookinf gor another dreamer
with his ever searching eyes

Master of Dreams he will forever be
He searches through the night
Directed by his horn of dreams
he guides another dreamer to the light.

*Destruction of the gods*

 Build me a world of science
 then take my gods from me
 explain how the wind blows
 So I can set my wind lords free.
 *
 Tell me how the earth was made
 and why we got these plants and trees
 Show me that the gods did not make
 this lovely world for us to see
 *
 There is no Apollo, God of the sun
 or a titan of the sea below
 and science proved long ago
 that no god can make the volcano blow
 *
 where are all the water nymphs
 what happened to the fairies
 who will watch the forests
 when you dismiss them with your theories.
 *
 prove to me there's no heaven
 with your trips to mars
 show me that the gods above
 are little twinkling stars
 *
 in a world of science
 where ancient gods are all but gone
 lost to a world of technology
 here we worship the computer god.
                Written By. BlackMist   09/14/91


   *THE CAPTURE OF A UNICORN*
 In the day that future lost
 and the light that was never found
 the unicorn lost his soul
 and till death, was forever bound...
 *
 The chain was made of gold
 as fine as silky thread
 drapped so gently behind his ears
 a golden bridle upon his head
 *
 In darkness the past was lost...
 the gates  between two worlds, the lady held the key
 for you may pass into that mysterious land...
 when a unicorn walks with thee...
 *
 held by a thread, his soul was lost
 to the love of the maiden fair
 wandering in that distant world...
  the last unicorn disappeared...


*Falcon's Poem*

Good Night Mighty Falcon
>From the Master Of Night and Dreams..
I bid Thee a good night....
Sleep well in green pastures
fly high thou wind master
kill fast and fly strong..
and leave behind ..the world of wrong..
sing your falcon song...
and forever stay strong..
Fly the winds of time, 
For in the end, you will be mine....

   *The Poets Black Banner*
 Black against the setting sun
 a relic of what the poets done
 it mutters all the poets words
 and speaks to the passing birds
 it tells of tales the poet spoke
 and of the dreams the poet wrote
 The poets banner once was white.
 when in life, his heart was bright.
 His words were filled with mystery
 and fulfilled your dreams and fantasies..
 he wrote of things that legends told
 like unicorns and dragons gold
 and the images were so sharp and clear
 you could picture the creatures standing there
 and through the years the banner flew
 learning all the tales the poet knew
 with the lost of its happy master
 the banner turned black forever after
 in memory of the poets mind
 the banner flutters throughout time
 whispering the rhymes the poet wrote
 so no one would forget the poet's heart that spoke.....

       *The Storms Of Life*

 Through your life will travel
 the dark and stormy clouds
 The winds that drive you back
 and the rains that beat you down..

 Across this world you walk
 through the mud you tread
 and you wonder why you bothered
 and where you have been led...

 The road before you is cold and wet
 the path behind is safe and dry
 but still you walk on through the rain 
 looking for the cloudless sky...

 Storms are like trouble
 they come and go with time
 run not from the coming storm
 because your troubles tag along behind..

 you can not escape your troubles
 for they are always there
 great them when they come 
 and face your greatest fears

 Troubles are but a challenge
 like the blowing wind
 Walk straight into it
 and in the end you'll win.

 *The Waking NightMare*

 As I close my eyes
 I lose my mind
 and drift into the world of dreams
 where wolf packs howl
 and devils prowl
 and you hear a tortured scream

 Tossing and turning
 I try to wake
 but someone locked
 my dream bound gate
 and they come to me each night
 a ghostly host, black barrow wights,
 they try to feed me to an evil drake

 I try to scream, but make not a sound
 and I can not outrun, these black hell hounds
 the gates are locked
 I can not wake
 and with a scream
 I break the gates..

 The dream is at an end
 and I'm in the waking world again
 so I dread the night to come
 for with the leaving of the sun
 the nightmare sits and waits
 for me to sleep again.

 *storm wind*

 gusting winds
 a flash in the sky
 dark clouds
 go rolling by
 rain falls
 the earth moves
 horses fly
 on wind swept hooves
 the hawk above
 is blown away
 as the sky above
 turns deadly gray
 all take shelter
 from the storm
 and in the forest
 a new baby is born
 a filly, black as night
 safe by her mothers side
 beautiful, like the storm
 on wings of death she rides.
 across the land she flies
 full of fury and of pride
 black like the stormy clouds
 she grows stronger, with every stride.
 end
       10/1/91

   *Love Or Death*

here is the question of life
 Which of 2 fates will you choose..
 In my hands I hold your future.
one or the other, your life you will lose..

For in my hands I hold...
  death on a leash.
  Tugging and pulling to get away
 Longing to be given to those in pain
And in my other hand
  I have all the love in the world
  which is ment to drive away
   All the misery and the pain... 
 In my travels I have seen..
  All the people in the world
 Some come to me for death
  To end their days of pain..
 And so I let the Leash go free
  And let Death go its own way..
 Others come to me for love...
   All the love in the world...
 So I give it to them freely
  And they live happily till they get old....

 Then there are the others...
   The ones that want nothing at all
  They who can not face death or love..
    And go one living with their pains..
 They can not take the shock...
   Of taking Death in hand...
 Or they fear the joy...
  That comes from taking all the Love in the land....

And so which fate do you choose...
  One of hateful Death?...
Or do you want the life of peace
 With someone who loves you best...

Or shall you be an  "other"...
 And fear the fate you face...
Pick neither one...
 and pass your chance with fate...

          *WHITE WOLF*
 Shadow woods, with all their secrets
 the dark forest of the gods
 filled with all the ancient magic
 this is the land whitewolf guards....
 
 A white flicker between the trees
 racing through the forest
 silent as a passing shadow
 whitewolf, a light in the darkness
 
 Stalking through the woods
 here the shadows rule
 the trees think only of themselves
 and not a creature moves....
 
 In the distance, a will o' the wisp
 bobbs before its prey
 catching the eyes of a wandering fool
 and leading him quite astray...
 
 As he wanders this mysterious land
 he finds the place where fairies dwell
 with the mighty centar and the lovely unicorn
 and here and there a wizard casting spells...
 
 Following the will o' the wisp
 lost within this spell bound forest
 captured by the trees that move
 and surrounded by the darkness
 
 In the shadows lurkes a creature
 White as the purest snow
 gliding between the trees of night
 with golden eyes that seem to glow...

 Then whitewolf finds the silly fool 
 and leads the wanderer to the light
 so he guards the creatures here
 of this ancient place of night

 A land with all its secrets
 with beauty few will ever see..
 and if you enter this forbidden land
 be sure that whitewolf will be hunting thee.....

 *************************POEM**********************
 Hello once again All you silent people out there...
     Ok for those of you who don"t get the main idea of what the
idea of this poem...
    It is about Warriors Who went to war For the wrong reasons..
 And in doing so... we cursed to fight their war every night...
 So as ghost they rise up each night.. and Fight thier battle
 but they no longer can remember why they are fighting... So
 they just continue to fight through out time without reason..
   END. Bye
***********************************************************
 Once in shadow woods
 where my spirit lies
 I came to rest among the dead
 And let my spirit fly
 *
 I walk along the coridors
 where time stands forever still
 here I see the men who died
 Upon this ancient hill..
 *
 
 With the coming of the night
 The dead slowly rise
 In the distant I hear the echo
 Of thier ancient battle cry..
 *
 The mist begins to gather..
 beneath thier marching feet..
 Sword held  high in glory..
 On the Field they meet...
 *
 And as they meet upon the field,
 They fight through out the night
 Neither is the winner
 In this senseless fight..
 *
 For Neither can remember
 What they are fighting for..
 Lost with in the past...
 The Reason for this Eternal war..
 *
 If they would take the time
 remember once again...
 what they left behind..
 thier family and thier friends..
 *
 If they only would
 lay down thier bloody swords...
 call a truce between them...
 and return to the land of thier lords..
 *
 But as I walk within these woods..
 I hear the ancient battle cries
 For the warriors of the past..
 are living thier ghostly lives.
 *
 Fighting for eternity
 For reasons now unknown..
 Dying with thier sword in hand 
 and thier hearts of stone..

*******************************************************

     A Poem from Dragon Lance     The hunt for the unicorn 

There was a proud and noble stag
In Shadow Wood was born,
And there he grew, and there he met
And loved the Unicorn.

He served her long, he served her well,
He served her, whole and part
Until one night in Shadow Glade
He told her all his heart

She did not mock, she did not laugh,
But softly told him nay;
He did not grieve, but chose to leave
And plotted to betray.

He sought out then King Peris's men:
His words were cold and blunt,
"Oh, sentry hosts, desert your posts:
I offer you a hunt."

King Peris's men were duty bound,
To guard the woods from fear.
The king, in pride, set sword aside,
To bargain with the deer.

"There is no hunt for me." said he,
Oh any creature born,
Unless I could in Shadow Wood
Hunt down the Unicorn."

"None knows so well where she may dwell
As I who did her will,
If you will heed, then I will lead
And you may have your kill

But one lone guard forewarned the King
"This hunt is evil-sturred;
For those with arms and potent charms
Against whom we must guard

No more will wait the eyes of hate
And souls and hearts of gall
But purge the wood of light and good
And gods forgive us all

Still Peris boasts, "Step down my host,
And hear the hunting horn,
Let men invade both wood and glade
We hunt the unicorn

The Stag led on from night to dawn.
>From sunrise into morn,
And in the shade of Shadow Glade
Betrayed the unicorn

She spoke to him: her voice was grim:
"What have you done for pride?
You know and see your destiny
And yet you turn aside.

You would betray me to my death
And quite forsake your vow?
Then service lent without consent
Is all you do me now."

She touched him once, she touched him twice,
And three times with her horn;
And there he fell, and where he fell
He rose a Unicorn.

The guards have fled; their trusting land
All undefended lies;
And through the woods invaders ride
With darkness in their eyes.

Without alarm they practice charms
That drive away that light
And shadow into Darkwood
Is made that evil night.

And afterward, with sword and spear
And horse and horn and hound
They hunted down King Peris's men
And ran them all to ground.

The king was slain, his body lain
Among his dying men,
But they were told ere they were cold
To rise and hunt again.

"For every wraith who breaks his faith
Must wander without cease
And cold, perform what he did warm
And never rest in peace.

So, Every night the stag betrays
The love he could not keep
And king and host desert their post
To hunt and never sleep.

And so they shall betray and hunt,
Until the day they show
That they somehow fulfull the vow
They broke so long ago."

"The shadows in the woods are plain
And mingle now with light;
They flow and play with sun by day
And dance with moon by night.

>From Darkwood has Shadow wood
Been granted it's release,
Those who were killed in vows fulfilled
Have there been granted peace."

				1

The air blows cooly through the brightly lit room.
The giant bear sits comfortably behind the desk.
Icicles form on his eyelashes,
And droplets fall from his finger tips.
The paw like hands fumble with the keyboard.
Partial thoughts are formed, and spilled onto the screen.
The bear has again crawled into his cave.
He finds warmth in the coldness of his heart.
He has pushed away yet another to find warmth in his only friend...
			Hate






				2

When the clouds fill the sky,
Does the sun still shine?
Some say it doesn't,
But scientists say it does;
We just cannot see,
We are blinded by the clouds.

When hate fills the heart,
Can love still grow?
Some say it can't,
I say it can;
We just cannot feel,
We are numbed by the hate.





				3

You are hurt,
I can read it in your words.
I can hear it in your voice.
I can see it in your actions.
You are searching.
You are reaching.
You are looking for something,
Trying to find something you've lost.
It has drifted away,
It has left you....
Empty.
I am here.
You can tell me your words.
You can listen to my voice.
Search for me.
Reach for me.
Look for me.
Let this thing go...
Drift toward me
I'm here for you...
		Always.

				Confusion (4)

It starts small,
Like a mist swirling around our feet.
No major losses,
At most, we cannot tell the color of your shoes.
As it grows,
The mist floats higher and becomes thicker.
We become disoriented,
We lose the path and are left on our own.
We stumble into obstacles,
And are unable to determine a clear path.
Soon the mist has become a thick fog.
We are wading neck deep in it.
We begin to choke as the entity consumes us.
At last we are lost.
Unable to see even ourselves clearly.
The fog has entered our mind.
We reach frantically for someone to cling to.
But they cannot help us,
Together we are lost,
And we drown in the fog.
The confusion.

   *Breaking Down the Wall*
With a pick and axe
I pound upon the wall
Breaking it down, Inch by inch
And watch it slowly fall

Bits of light now shimmer
through the tiny cracks
and I pound once more
as your wall weakens under my attack

Peaking through the holes 
I see what I came to find
When this wall is finally gone
Then your heart will be mine

Why you tried to hide it
I'm Sure I'll Never know
But now that I have got it
I swear, I will never let it go.

******** POEM POEM POEM********
OK.. Here is my second poem of the day..and yes
they were written today... hope you like them
yes i know they are strange.. but then again
they are always strange.
****************************************

  *Visit Form God?*
If god came to visit
What would he say
"Greetings my darling children"
or "THIS IS JUDGEMENT DAY!!!"

Would he come by chariot
drawn by horses of gold
or would he just walk among us
aged, frail, and old....

What will he bring
 when he visits that day?
Salvation for all the world
Or distruction and dismay....

And what if he visits
 And does nothing at all
But silently watches
 our children playing ball...

If god came to visit
 What would you do
Grovel at his feet
 And beg him to fogive you?..

Would you even recognize him
 From all the other people
Or would you call him crazy
 And ignore him like a fool....

HELLO Once again from the IRC Poet....
here are a few of my newest creations... as you can
tell by the date at the end of each...
This first one... *The Walk* Is Dedicated To Rocker/Tom Hind
May our memories last a life time..
And the joys be eternal
Goodbye and sweet readings folks
****************************************************

       *The Walk*
 By the water we stand
 Walking hand and hand
 Laughing at the jokes we made
 laying in the maple's shade
 watch the water ripple
 and listen to me giggle
 remember the moment you spent
 with me by the rivers edge
 wander on a path that goes on and on
 remember the moment for soon I will be gone
 As you watch the duck go floating by
 and rain slowly falls from the sky..

 Far away I am
 but still we both can talk
 and reminise about the day
 you took me for that walk
        11/11/91

 *the poets seat*

 when the poet takes her seat
 upon the tripod of the Muse
 Peace desends upon the world
 and armies call a truce

 As she sits upon her seat
 words and thoughts fill her mind
 images and words come together
 as lines with rythem and rhyme...

 image after image of long lost dreams
 a line, a phraze, and then another
 quickly she writes the verse
 as they come together

 All turn and wait
 for the poets words
 Loud and Clear she speaks
 to make sure that she is heard.

 then, when all is written down 
 she steps down and sighs...
 chaos continues where it left off
 and up goes the battle cries..
 
 She paint a picture with every word
 of ancient mystic lands...
 When Knights fought for shivelry
 And In Death, became a  MAN....
       11/11/91


   *Signs of Winter*

 Walk along a path
 beneath the towering trees
 try to walk silently
 among the fallen leaves

 Hear the distant honking
 of the flying geese
 As they start their yearly treck
 to the far South East

 Feel the chilly winds
 of the coming storms
 watch the bushy squirrel hunt
 for tiny seeds and acorns

 Walk beside the lake
 Steam rises from the surface
 Crystals form beneath your feet
 As snow falls upon your face

 Walk along a path
 see how the trees have changed
 These are signs of winter
 In our majestic mountain range
            11/11/91

*************************************************************
*************************************************************


 poem  is about my necklace.. it is a Black onyx Crystal on a Silver rope chain
.. that has been on my neck for the last 3 years.. and does not come off..
   *The Pendent* 
 This is my heart
 black as the darkest night
 a stone of onyx rock
 but yet is shines in the light
 bound by a circle of silver
 this pendent of darkness I wear
 you can not see through it
 no matter how hard you stare.
 linked to a rope of silver
 drapped around my neck
 this crystal of midnight onyx
 without a single crack
 power it may hold
 stories it might well tell
 a amulet against the nightmares
 and keeps me from my inner hell.
 this is my heart I wear
 for all the world to see
 this rock hard shell of darkness
 that hides the inner me.
 end
   
     *The Lab Consultant*
In this room I sit
Behind my little desk
Watching all the students
Who are such major pests
How I'd LOVE to kill them
or Ban them from this lab
They ask the Dumbest questions
And they think that I'm a rag..
Time after time,
They ask the same bloody things..
How I would love to kill them
or cancel their process strings.
          11/20/91 

     *Any body out there?*

Does any body listen
to the words I say
do they even read
the poems that I sent today
I often stop and wonder
why I even try
Because Every time i send something
I only get one Reply..

   *late Halloween Poem*

On this night of Halloween
When spooks and goblins prowl
Ghost will walk the eerie night
as a werewolf howls...
As the children go from door to door
Singing Trick Or Treat
If you ask for a trick
the children will sniff their tiny feet...
But be wary of the others
the ones that are not kids
Like the sneaky goblin with his sack
or the skeleton who belongs in bed
And watch the midnight sky
for witches on their brooms
for on the night of Hallow Eve
They can open the gates of doom
but when the night is over
and the children have their treats
the monsters go back home
and the ghosts go back to sleep...
10/31/91

    *The Caller*

Lurking in the shadow
Master of the night
Wings of death are spread
and block out the moon light
his eyes see through the darkness
looking for new prey
Suddenly, He hears a distant calling
 SOMEONE Knows his name...
Ringing through his mind
the calling of his hidden name
magically it sings to him
forcing him to seek the singer...
and once again the dragon flies
above this ancient land.
Over land and mountain lakes
across the sea below
and all the while, the voice still sings
calling out his ancient name
The more he tries to resist the call
the stronger it becomes

Soon he comes upon a mountain
with a house of crystal ice
at the steps, a woman sits
dressed in purest white.
this is who has called 
the dragon from his lair
and from him she asks one thing
for him to give his name
when he speaks his ancient name
the calling suddenly stops..
For now she is his master
and to his death is bound
to protect the wonderous lady 
who claimed his ancient name...
Then up in the air he flies
back to his smokey home...
But now he has a master...
Who lives in the crystal dome...

Hello once again from the irc poet...
here is my latest poem that i have written
I hope you enjoy it... thank you for taking the time to read this
and don"t forget to send me a Birthday Card... december 3rd...
************************************
         *What I write about*

 I write about the fantasy
 of things that might have been
 Of a world with out reality
 and how this world will end

 I write about the spirits
 I call them from thier graves
 I speak to many who have passed
 As warriors, strong and brave...

 I write about the troubles
 I see them every day
 I feel the strain every time
 They decide to cross my way.

 I write about the darkenss
 A world with out light
 for this is where my heart does live
 hidden by the night

 One day I will write
 About the love I have shared
 Of the arms that hold me tight
 and the man that really cared...

 But now I write about
 the lonely path I walk
 Leaving happiness behind me
 and through this darkenss I will stalk.
    11/24/91 2 AM...

another file from guess who.. hehehe
I bet you are getting tired of seeing mail from 
The black dreaming unicorn
night
********

     *Death of the Unicorn*
In the time that legends told
of unicorns and dragons gold..
came the evil and the night

Creatures came from the gates
behind the doors, hell awaits
Hunting down the Unicorn's light

Through the forests where she dwells
Came the creatures from that hell
And here they came to fight

The unicorn stood her ground
For they wanted her golden Crown
The source of all Goodness and Light

So let legend tell
how the unicorn fell
beneath the hand of night

>From head was torn
 The unicorns horn
and with it went the light
      11/24/91
  BlackMist.. The Black Dreaming Unicorn




    *Death Rider*
Late at night I ride
the stallion with no hide
A remnant of what it used to be..
The skeleton beneath my knees..

Bits of hair remains...
Of its once beautiful silky mane..
And the hollows that will never see
the grass that once was green...

With each step it takes..
It leaves terror in its wake..
A steed once draped in gold...
Now a ghastly sight to behold.

And I ride this steed of mine
upon the ancient paths of time..
Dreams are shattered and destroyed
Beneath his feet like little toys..

Together we ride in search of those
with destinies fulfilled to collect their souls
Delivering them to what will be
their resting place for eternity...

And all shall Fear this steed of mine
As we collect each soul in line..
For i am the Death Rider of this land..
A Deadly Bane to each Livig man...

    *SKY DANCER*

Prancing On clouds of fire
with his deadly touch of desire
racing through the realms of hell
This is where this Unicorn Dwells
His breath is like a hurricane
And fire runs through his blood red mane

As he playes the ancient flute of kings
through his horn, the winds can sing
Blue as the skies he flies
a flaming star across the Midnight Skies
SkyDancer is his name
as fire runs through his mane

Belonging to his reality
there`s no place he`d rather be
Through eyes that see ahead
Through time to a life of Dread
With a touch, His soul you`ll tame
For he is the unicorn with the Flaming Mane..

******* Another poem from me .. blackmist..... 
        Read at your own risk
********                       ***************


      *The Pains of Life*
 Through this life I walk 
 Hand and hand with pain
 I work so hard just to get
 The tiny bits of joy I gained.

 Through my life's been short
 I've seen things you'll never know
 like a heart broken many times
 or the drug adicts mighty blows

 Pains that I have felt
 But yet I hide the truth
 The hurt can be so great
 that you wonder whats the use

 Things that I have seen
 proverty at its best
 abuse from those you love
 and engagments that will never last

 Time and time again
 I push the pain away
 But each time I trust again
 I am once again betrayed

 I touch the hearts of many
 and bring them peace and joy
 but many times they treat me heart
 like it is just a little toy..
 
 Pain is all around..
 and there is no way to hide
 Accept it as it comes..
 and face it with your pride

******** Some poems from me...Blackmist

      MERRY CHRISTMAS< HAPPY NEW YEAR<
     And HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU ALL>>>
  Love always..... BlackMist **************

*x-mas*
this is the time for giving..
 and all wishes come true..
  this is the time I long to be
   sitting close to you...

This is the season for loving
 and sharing the gifts of life..
  not the time for arguments
   and filling the time with strife..

This is the time of Rememberance
 of all the good that can be...
  So a Merry Christmas to you....
   From the Unicorn of dreams..

     12/23/91


  *Birthday*
On this day of birth
I age another year
passing from my youth to age..
The Future I do not fear..
 
I now look ahead
to what lays instore
new adventures to face
and surviving the coming storms..

Onward I will travel
On through the flames
For I am the Black Dreaming Unicorn
With the Sparkling Golden mane

The words of a poet
Filled with star fire
The world of the Unicorn
And the Strengths that I admire

Time does the telling
of the ages long gone..
Now I do the telling
from the day that I was born...

The Poet is my name
And I send you my visions
To make this world a Better place
This is my Final mission..
             12/19/91

         *Wandering Sea thoughts*

Palm trees sway against the wind
 and sand crabs dig their holes.
and I listen to the waves..
 forever tugging on my soul.

Silence is the gift...
 to the sailor out to sea..
as the waves rock you gently
 and  you go to sleep...

The wind is so gentle
as it fills the sails..
you stare out to the ocean..
you wonder at its secret tales...

the sunset is mysterious
to the watcher by the palm trees...
each time it is different..
as it disapears behind the seas...

beauty is the gift
of the setting sun...
lights the skies in pinks and reds..
and each sunset is a speacial one..

hear the roar of the waves..
crashing on the shores..
as cries its battle challenge
to the surfers on thier boards..

Whales in the distant
 All can hear thier mating calls...
Through the depts they travel...
 among their watery halls...

Here at sea is peace...
 no wars are at hand..
On this floating boat...
  in silence do I stand..

The sea plays by the shore..
 And the wind plays in the trees...
The sun plays with the sky...
 as my hair blows in the winter breeze...

Time is frozen still
 in this land of wonders
Where the sun is always shining...
 and the waves sound like distant thunder..

You weren't at home when I called you on tuesday, so I hope you got my
greetings from your answering machine..
  Hey, this is my first message to you for a year and a half! Huh..

What did I do on christmas?
  Well, I made a card (not a 'christmas' card - I'm not a christianq,
but a ... kind of 'days of darkness'-card) for Terhi; a nice
burning-and-melting-heart-above-snow - card with a winter poem in the
back side. Jeesh, she will propably rip it into pieces and burn it..
But that's only life.. And death to me.

I hope I'll meet you on IRC in near future..

The winter days seemingly so endless,
the skies so dark and deep, so cold,
thoughts of you are my warmth,
the warmth that makes me live.

May your days of darkness be bright and joyful.

****** HEY YOU POEM FANS.... Well here are a few of my
new works.. they are just as icky as all the old ones
but since you folks seem to like them so much...
I decided to send you a few...
Well I hope this year is going well for all you out there.. and 
Good luck for the rest of the year to come
Love always
BlackMist the Black Unicorn
****************************************************

*Sheba*
waking with a yawn
she arches her silky back
straightens out her fur with a lick
and sets out on her track
swiftly she walks
through her temple halls
fur of onyx black
drapped with chains of gold
eyes of emerald green
glittering by trhe fire
as she passes the temple servants
they stop just to admire
here she is queen
of her egyptian tower
fore cats are very rare
and symbols of ancient power

    *Searching for Reality*

In my dreams I wander
I wonder what i search for
why I'm always hidding
and what I'm running towards..
Is it reality snapping at my heels
as I search for better things
A safer place, a warmer heart
that only time will bring..
 Or am I just wandering
Just to see what is out there...
 Looking for the things that could have been
 and things that never will...
  
     *the Fate of the World*
 Crystal Dreams
 and Icey Streams
 And all the world is gold

 Nightmare's roam
 beneath this dome
 in the depths of winter's cold

 time will tell
 Nightmares Dwell
 within this world of stone

 and hearts will break
 before those gates
 when the bells of death will toll

 And they will rule again
 from thier icey shadow den
 as man watches his fate unfold

         *Heaven full of Stars*
 as I stare out from my window..
 I see all the stars above...
 and the earth is covered in snow.
 as soft as the feathers of a dove...
 each world in its own..
 twinkle in the moon light..
 the crystal sparkles of the snow...
 and the stars shining in the twilight..
   *THE Cry of the last Unicorn*
When the last wind blows
across the dying land
among the distant hills
the last human stands..
in her hands she holds 
the ancient golden alicorn
and at her feet, lies dead
 the last white unicorn
in the distant, you could here the cry
I`m alive, 
I`m alive....

When the last moon sets
the last creature stires
she places ahorn to her head
and two lifes begin to merge
arms and legs began to change
and her hair, a flowing mane..
on her forehead a golden horn
as she became, a unicorn
I`m alive,
I`m alive....

When the last is reborn
flowers bloom in the morning sun
birds fly and lions roar
as life has begun once more..
walking on the path of light
in a world that no longer morns...
In the distant you hear the cry
of the last unicorn
I`m alive
I`m alive..

 
    *AMNESIA*
Grasping at an image
a single fleeing thought
A quickly fading memory
 of a past That I have lost..
an image of a horse,
and a rattle snake..
 Then a large tree before me..
just as the world turns to darkness..
I  wake in a place
 I know not where I am..
A stranger comes and asks me..
 "What happened.. who are you?"
And all i can say to them is...
  I`m Sorry.. I do not remember....

I see an image..
   but it hides from me...
 I remember for a second..
  and then forget once more..

************************************************

*A present for Bones who's girlfriend is leaving for a while*

    *A lover leaves*
Wrap your arms around me
and hold me next to you
Kiss me so tenderly 
so I know our love it true.

On this day you'll leave me
And travel far away
And time will go so slowly
as I think of you every day

Each night will be so lonely
without you by my side
But i'll remember your lovely smile
every time the sun begins to rise.

Hours will I wait
by my telephone
for the day you'll call me
and say that you are home

So wrap your arms around me
and hold me close to you
and as you travel far from me
remember that i'll miss you

BlackMist the Irc Poet
************************************************
     *The closer you are the farther you are*
Sometimes you're so close
but yet so far away
thinking of another time
and dreaming of another day

I feel your presence next to me
But still you are not here
Eyes that seem so vacant
at a distant place you stare

In your arms you hold me
then forget that I am here
what thoughts trouble you
so that you don't know I'm here?

I break your train of thought
with a single tender touch
I remind you that I'm here
because I love you so much

No matter what you see
or where your thoughts will stray
Please don't forget me
When your so far away...

Time and time again
you drift away from me
Tell me what your thinking
and where you'd rather be...?
 
10:35pm 1/19/92
     *Close your eyes*
Close your eyes for a moment
tell me what you see
What is in the darknes
When you enter this place of Dreams..

Can you hear the angels
singing in the night.
can you see the fairies..
Dancing by the fire light.

What do you see in the darkness
the calm before the storm..?
Do you see your dreams..
As they are formed, and reborn..

Open your eyes again
 and depart this world of dreams
for with the coming of the light
 the sun puts forth its sparking sun beams..

***********************************************
      *What the Deaf will hear*
Who is she that sings
but yet speaks no words
does she hear the poeple
or listen to the birds
on through life she goes
singing to herself
nothing seems to trouble here
and she is tiny like an elf
she dances on the shore line
playing with the waves
searching for some secrets
as she wanders in the hidden caves
echoing through the cavern
the thunder of the tide
she watches the crabs scatter
as they try to quickly hide
she does not hear the thunder
but yet she knows its there
some sounds can be felt
by those who can not hear
    1/23/92    9:30 am

    *Three Men*
before me in a dream
stood three silent men
silent in the darkness
neither were they foe, or friend
one was a boy
destined to rule the world
one was his father
lord of the universe
and the third one
was just a ghost
a presence that was felt
but not ment to be seen
In my dream they stood
each alone and by himself
in time the darkness took them
the son, the lord, and the holy ghost
now darkness rules the land
where once they use to stand
   1/23/92 9:45 AM
*LOST*
Sometimes I get lost 
in the coridors of my mind
and I wonder at the thoughts
since I know they are not mine
I know I did not think them
but yet they are  here
sitting in this closet
waiting for me to hear
Walking down this hallway
doors on either side
behind each one is a thought
or a memory I wish to hide
Looking at the chains and locks
I do not hold the key
Painful memories are hidden there
Forever Locked away from me
    1/23/92 10:00 AM

    *The short/and the tall*
Have you ever felt so small
standing next to someone tall
having to forever look up to them
When they hug you, they have to bend
Have you ever been so short
you can't reach the net, on a vollyball court?
in the world of the tall
I hate being so small
I wish I had the height
so that I for once just might
look someone in the eye
without standing on something to make me high...
or hug someone that I know
without standing on my toes...
How I wish I could be tall
since I am so very small..

***********************CUT HERE**********************
   *Alone*
One who stands alone
away from all the others
singled out for her silent ways
no one to call sister or brother

She who stands alone
hidden in the shadows
hidden from the strangers
with their words that hurt like arrows.

As she walks alone
she finds peace in her dreams
here they can not find here
 and no one hears her screams

Here she lives alone
in the shadows of her mind
away from all the others
from now to the end of time...

  *Judging the book from the cover*
If you ever looked at me
would you tell me what you see
a little girl all aglow
seeming to be happy, or is it just a show
Someone who lives with her mother
and dispises the man called her father
and every man she ever loved
then broke her heart just because..
the time for hating came and passed
as her life was torn and trashed..
but if you looked at me to see
the pains that are deep inside of me
you would not see it if you looked
for the cover hides the meaning of the book..

****************************************************************

   * A new morning in the forest*
 As the sun slowly rises
 the stars disapear
 the world pays witness
 to the first steps of a baby dear

 With the first shining rays
 the forest begins to glitter
 drops of dew begin to sparkle
 and the tiny birds start to twitter

 Creatures begin to stir
 within the shadows of the forest
 when all the birds awaken
 they sing thier morning corus
 
 The forest comes alive
 as the sun drives the mist away
 and the dew that has settled
 glitters like stars before the coming day

 The mist swirls in the shadows
 and becomes a shining rainbow..
 and around the trees appear
 a shimming golden halo.

    *MY POEMS*

Do you really know me
or do you even care
read the words I sent to you
for here my thoughts are clear

each one has a meaning
or a story to tell
if you only read them
you would know my life was hell

read the poems carefully
and see that I have been hurt
know that my love was betrayed
or that I like to flirt

See when I am troubled
or when myh life is bad
and even though I act so happy
inside I'm really sad

A poet I may be
with ever word I write
my dreams are set before you
with the struggle of day and night..
 
 1/28/92  9:53 AM 



    *My Unicorn spirit*

Stepping from the mist
of my inner dreams
a horse black as midnight
hollow eyes that see the world
and pierces the shadows in the night

This is my totem
 the protector of my soul
she is that, which leades me through my life
guilding me through the darkness
 and gives me the courage to break the ice

She is symobolic, of all the things I am
  and of all the things I wish to be
strong and beautiful, but mysterious
forever wandering through my dreams

Here she stands alone
strength and grace with ever stride
full of wisdom of the heart
and courage to make it to the other side 

Mysterous like the fading mist
her heart you'll never fully know
drifting from place to place
looking for a place called home.

Protector of my heart
she guilds me to the light
she gives me the strength I need
to make it throught the night.

Her presence is a comfort
when I know she's there
protecting me from all the pains
that I have felt, but can never share

Tender is her touch
 and deadly is her rage
wild as the mustangs
 her heart you can never cage.

 *this poem is about traveling in underground caverns, and
    having your light go out and trying to find your way back:)*

      *lost in the darkness*
 Can you see in darkness
 or feel your hands upon the wall
 stumble in your blindness
 on the ground you now crawl

 Feel the moisture in the air
 heavy like your thoughts
 clinging to your skin and hair
 feeling like your trapped and caught...

 Lost within the caverns
 listen to the echos
 hang on to your sences
 when you can't escape the shadows

 time has no meaning
 is it day or night
 in the land beneath the world
 when you lost your sight.

 Traveling through the caverns
 with your tiny flash light
 the light began to fade
 and the world turned back to night...

 Can you see in darkness
 when you have lost the light
 guilded by the sounds of life
 would you make it through the night..

 Follow the  winds of life
 roaring through the caverns
 they'll lead you to the light
 then your sight will return..

 Listen for the roaring of the winds
 and remember the path you followed
 keep your hands upon the walls
 and hope to see tomorrow
    2/5/92 


This is a revision... place these two in for the last two verses.

 In the darkness you are lost
 death is close at hand
 time has no meaning
 in this world that you now stand.

 Darkness now surrounds you
 there is no hope of escape
 traped forever in this world 
 For death will be your fate.

********************************************
GREETINGS all my devoted Readers out that that
I have deprived of my drivel called poetry:)
I have decided that since I have not been able to come 
up with very many poems in the last several months
that I am quiting writing for the 5 thousandth time.
I do not think I will write any more. My poetry is becoming
more forced and makes less sence... so I thought it would  be 
wise to quit for the time being...
also... there are some old x-mas poems at the end that
I forgot to send out:)..
So I hope you enjoy these few that I have here
and have a Nice Spring Break:)

Love Always....   Blackmist the Black Dreaming Unicorn..
    The Irc Poetess

 *eyes of innocence*

 Children see the world
 through eyes of innocence
 everything is new to them
 like sleeping in a tent

 Pennies are the treasures
 of a little girl
 when money had no meaning
 and does not rule her world

 Walking through a field
 picking wild flowers
 a bear goes walking by
 but she ignores this beast of power.

 She stars in amazement 
 at the hawk above
 flying on wings of gold
 graceful as a dove

 Everything is beautiful
 from frogs to tiny flowers
 and her friend is the St. bernard
 the giant beast that walks beside her.

 only will a child
 sleep upon the floor
 with her arms drapped around
 this giant dog that she adores

 And even though she is so tiny
 in this great big world
 with her eyes of innocence
 nothing can hurt this little girl
03/6/92

       *The Future*
 Hunting through my dreams
 I wonder what I'm searching for
 Why I'm always hidding
 I wonder what I'm running towards

 Is it reality snapping at my heels
 as I search for better things
 a safer place, a warmer heart
 that only time will bring

 Time and time we wait
 for the world to change
 we just sit here every day
 as we slowly start to age...

 In my dreams I'm searching
 For the Life I will never see
 I dream about who I could of been
 and who I will never be
   03/9/92

           *KEY*
 Each day you hold the key
 each night I call to thee
 A gate locked, a towering wall
 and there you stand, with your silver key

 you stand and stare at the wall
 then walk on and ingore the call
 and each night you walk on by
 and each night you hear my silent cry

 but yet the gate remains locked
 and you still hold the key
 so the gate remains forever locked
 and my heart will never be free

 forever will I call to you
 each night goes flying by
 dreams are all forgotten
 until you unlock the wall of lies
03/9/92

      *Dragon On the Pedestal*
the Dragon on the pedestal
glowing like the flaming sun
guarding the swirling blue crystal
in flaming swirls the colors run...

Scales of golden red
and eyes of emerald fire
Master of mysteries
and ruler of deceptions and desires.

he waits for his master
The Mysterious Goddess of magic
who makes the world so intreging
and sometimes creates such havoc

in the distant, the dark lord waits
the crystal of magic, he wishes to take
he sends his minions, in the dead of night
to take the crystal, the source of light

the crystal of magic, the gates to the worlds
the entrance to her land, in the magical swirls
through the dragon he must go, to get to the gate
for on the other side, his mistress waits

a test of his wisdom,  his strength and his mind
to beat the mystic dragon, who has lived for all time
spells of magic do no harm, to the ancient dragon of light
for only with your mind, can you beat this dragon's might

Armies fall before him, without a single blow
nothing can get near, the dragon with his deadly glow..
The dark lord must speak to him, if he truely dares.
but be wary of his trickery, and his hypnotizing stare..

For the glowing crystal, the dark lord must surely wait
for the hand of his lady, that he wishes to take
 

03/11/92
       *Days Go Walking By*

As I sit and watch 
the days go walking by
 on legs so long
and strides so wide
I could never catch up
even if I tried
 I run a little faster
But nothing seems to matter
 The days keep going by
faster faster faster..

 Then there comes a time
When they go so slow
 I have to give them a push 
  Just to get them to go
 They drag their feet behind them
  when they use to fly
 Now they go so slowly
 I almost want to cry 
    03/11/92


 *Shadows Of Reality*
 shadows walk my dreams
 on the borders of my reality
 who they are
 They will not show
 where they came from
 I just don't know
 I travel through my dreams
 to the place where time stands still
 I seem to move silently along
 with no thought or will
 The landscape is so perfect
 as only found in dreams
 wonderous creatures all around
 like the unicorn by the stream
 she seems to always be here
 hidding in the shadows
 dancing among the trees at night
 as graceful as a sparrow
 here I can rest and play
 because dreams go on for eternity
 For this is my world of dreams
 at the borders of my reality
      3/22/92


   *Alone*
One who stands alone
away from all the others
singled out for her silent ways
no one to call sister or brother

She who stands alone
hidden in the shadows
hidden from the strangers
with their words that hurt like arrows.

As she walks alone
she finds peace in her dreams
here they can not find here
and no one hears her screams

Here she lives alone
in the shadows of her mind
away from all the others
from now to the end of time...

  *Judging the book from the cover*
If you ever looked at me
would you tell me what you see
a little girl all aglow
seeming to be happy, or is it just a show
Someone who lives with her mother
and dispises the man called her father
and every man she ever loved
then broke her heart just because..
the time for hating came and passed
as her life was torn and trashed..
but if you looked at me to see

      *The Albino Unicorn*
>From the rhelm of dreams he was called 
white as the crystal snow 
an evil aura surounds him 
blood red eyes, with their firey glow 

Shining in the silent night 
the ancient albino stepped forth 
and legends tell of the dread 
rought by this one horned horse 

every step he takes 
brings death to the peaceful land 
the grass withers and dies 
where ever his deathly hoofs land 

swiftly he travels through the forest
insearch of the one who calls
who has the strength to master the Unicorn
and summon him from his fiery halls..

standing in the distance
a figure draped in robes of black
waits patiently for the creature
to travel the winding track

the albino reaches the summit
and greets it's new master here
the mistress in the night
the beautiful lady with the silky black hair

for only can a women
with a heart of stone
can call the albino unicorn
from his flaming home

and together they ride through the land
bring death where ever they go
living on the unfortunate souls
who happen to be walking thier road

They travel over the towering mountains
and fly over the icey streams
across the open plains they thunder
in defiance the stallion screams

as the night draws to an end
the unicorn returns once more
to the hill top where he first met
the beautiful lady by the shore

and then he turns and walks away
through the forest to his home
until he is called once more
by the lady with the heart of stone

******** MINI POEMS************

Some test the water
  When the Moon is full
Others walk the oceans depths
  or sit idle by a pool...

Some Tred the water
   to show that they have strength
 some die to show their brave
  and others pray they do not sink.

Some walk the land
  In search of all thats good
 Some go hunting to prove thier might 
  and others hide within the woods..

Some search the skies
  A place they'll never go
 While others play by the sea
  or walk among the trees and snow...



************* Very Late X-mas Poems*******

    *Street full of X-mas Lights*

As I walk down my street
I see all the lights aglow
Twinkling lights wrapped around xmas trees
and lots of ribbon bows

Some houses have lights
some have none at all
then others have little majors
 glittering in the snow

Lights glitter in the night
sparkling with christmas cheer
tiny children walk the streets
singing songs for all to hear..


   *Giving*
Chrismas time is here
in the hearts of many
gifts are given freely
rare things like silver pennies

This is the time for giving
and sharing yourself with all
spend the time you never spent
and give your friend a call

Spend your time with children
neices you have never known
give yourself to those you know
for this is what x-mas means


   *Sleigh Bells*
Twinkling in the distant
 a thousand tiny lights
shining little starts
 for all to watch at night

Laughter fills the air
  as children ride the sleigh
Drawn by two white horses
  and Playing in the hay

The horses race by proudly
 with jingling silver bells
as you enjoy the christmas sights
 and all the wintery smells

hi.. just a semi poem.. it is not that good.. but you guys
can have it anyways:)

    *The Dance of Remembrance*

We do the dance to remember
to reminisce about the ancient past
to dance closer to the future
we dream that the dance will last

We do the dance of remembrance
and give our love to the sky
we do our dance for the living
and for those who soon will die

We do the dance to remember
all the long lost tales
to remember what our life was like
when we lived in the mountain vales

We do the dance of remembrance
so we do not forget out dreams
and remember the time we lived as one
with nature by the mountain streams.

We do the dance to remebmer
What we were before
to see what we are becoming
and what our life is for...
        4/9/92   Written By  BlackMist


       *Light and Dark*

 Death and Destruction rules this land
 and in the distant, a traveling band
 full of murders and thieves
 hiding amoung the shadow wood trees
 Enter if you dare
 this land filled with fear
 for death is at every turn
 as each tiny villige burns

 Swords in hands they travel
 as thier war horses kick up gravel
 in darkness do they ride
 and there is no place to hide
 they leave a trail of death behind
 killing all that they find
 plunder the bodies of those they slain
 filled with hatred and an ancient pain
 time will tell
 where death has dwelled
 a light will shine in the night
 and join darkness in a battle of might
 so where death once ruled the land
 a figure of light now surely stands
 to defy the creatures of the night
 in the eternal battle of darkness and light.

I once had a dream
whree I held in my hands
a figure of darkness, drapped in gold
One of lightness, shining across the land

The figure of darkness
showed me the world
treasures for the taking
and the power to rule

The figure of goodness
showed me the world
filled with peace and happiness
and the love of the world

Darkness showed me treasures
beyond my wildest dreams
The light showed me love
and thats all if offered me..

My greed rose up
 at the sight of the gold
thoughts of power
and the treasures I could hold

Then reason came down
and pushed away the greed
What good is treasure
without the happiness I need?

So I turned from the figure
drapped in finery and gold
for to submit to the greed
I surely would have sold my soul

I turned to the light
as others have done
and finally received
what greed never won

The figure of light
greeted me with a hug
and the entity of darkness
screamed and disapeared with a shrug.
