"Dark" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 12/12/2005

Location

United Kingdom

I Move In The DARK Like ... Deep Sea Sharks ...
Therefore My Bite's WORSE Than My Bark ... !!!

Why HATE Because My Skin Tone's DARK ... ?!?

Racists NEED A Change of Heart ... !!!!!
Some Aussies Seem To Think They're SMART .... !?!

Well It's NOT WISE To Make Me START ... !!!!!
Sydney NEEDS My Poetry What Makes Them Think It's ... " Their Country " ... !?!

Rednecks NEED TO Leave The Beach ....
And Check Back Through Their History ... !!!!!!

I'm DARK Like ... " Aborigines " .... !!!

Who Just Like ME Will NEVER SEE ...
A Time Where We Are FREE To Live And NOT Witness ...
HATRED From ... REDNECK RACISTS ... !!!!!!

Trust In This My Darkness HITS A Rednecks' Lips ...
With POTENT Scripts That Would BEFIT ...
A Day Where Sunlight Is ... " ECLIPSED " ... !!!!!

Why Are So Many AFRAID of ... " The DARK " ... ?!?

Yet Seem AFRAID of TRUTH FILLED Light ... ?!!!?

PARTY TIMES Are YES At Night ... !!!
And Sexual Highs Usually Take Flight ...
Long After YES ... Sunlight Shines BRIGHT ... !!!!!

Darkness Rules My Inner Mind ...
And Helps Design Poetic Lines ...

My Use of Rhyme Is ... " WELL REFINED " ...
To Speak On Darkness WITHOUT Harshness ... !!!!!!!
Reality's BITE Is STARK And HEARTLESS .... !!!

Racism ... I DO NOT Harness ... !!!!!
But Darkness Now Is How Things Are ... !!!

That May Seem Harsh But Is THE TRUTH ... !!!
So Don't You Start To Say My Mind ...
Is Primed To Write Rhymes That Send Out NEGATIVE Vibes ... !!!

I'm Shedding LIGHT On RACIST Fights ... !!!!!
And Other Things Within My Sight ...

While Most ......................... "Ignore" ...
Until They Fall Down To Where The Dark Ones CALL ... !!!

DARK Black Holes To BUY Your Soul ...
DON'T Get CAUGHT You May Get BOUGHT ...
And Find That Life Is Just TOO SHORT To Reject Light ...

OPEN Your Eyes And REALISE Walking Blind WON'T Help Mankind ... !!!
Darkness Reigns In Skies These Days Especially When Oil Depots BLAZE ... !!!!!

BIG Dark Clouds Across Our Towns Things Like This Are Causing FROWNS ... !!!!!

DARKENED MOODS As Fuel POLLUTES Our Atmosphere And Peoples' Food ... !!!

Oil Is CRUDE And In The News ...
I'm Saying ... Can't These Fools COMPUTE ... ?!?!?
Or Manage Things That NEED TIGHT SCREWS ... !!!!!

Clearly NOT ... !!!!!
They're Needing Clues On How This Started In The ... " DARK " ... ?!!!?

Things Are Now Falling Apart Like I've Said REALITY'S STARK ...

REALITY Sheds Light For Me On Things Most Folks DON'T WANT To See ...
POVERTY Breeding More Thieves VIOLENCE On Our DARKENED Streets ... !!!!!!!!

Cash Scandals From Companies Who Have Close Links With Our ... " MP's " ...
Armies Who Now DESTROY Peace And Leave More BROKEN Families ... !!!!!!!!!!

These Are DARK TIMES I Think You'll Find ... ?
Unless You Choose To Be Inclined To Look Away And Turn ... "Blind Eyes" ...

You May Find That You'll Be Surprised ... !!!
Because Such Actions Are UNWISE ... !!!!!

Walk In The Light NOT In The Dark ...
Before Your Life Gets Ripped APART ... !!!!!

DON'T Play Smart Cos' Nature Now Is Hitting HARD ... !!!!!
And NOBODY ... Can Pull It's Card ... !!!!!!

BIG CITY Lights Are NOT SO Bright ...
Just Like Class Life's Now A Farce ... !?!

Do What's NEEDED Show Some HEART ... !!!
.................. It's NOT That Hard .................... !!!

Before Our Hopes And Dreams And World ...

Become A Place That's COLD And .....

..................... " DARK " ...................... !!!
