I've decided to get back into writing poetry, something I really enjoy and haven't done in years. Because honestly I found the type of poetry I was doing boring. Warning:  This is dark poetry and a bit creepy, with a bit of horror in it.  This is a narrative that I finished up this afternoon and wanted to share.  It's gotten a couple of likes in the places that I shared it and I am going to post this in a spoiler to make sure that you read it only if you desire to do so.  So please let me know what you think and I am going to add more as time goes by.  

[SIZE=large]Welcome to my nightmare of endless torture, waiting for death’s sweet embrace to wrap its bony arms around me. Laughter, a mad laughter fills the room of my cell. The laughter and screams of the damned echoes in my mind, as I wade through a blood red river filled with the broken bones and dreams of the dead. [/SIZE]


[SIZE=large]Welcome to my nightmare, the only sentence the letter had said. No names, only an address to which I arrived. A fortress, a place of death and torture, the sane are driven insane and the insane walk the halls. The gloom surrounded me like a fog, even demons refused to step foot inside and Angels feared its master.[/SIZE]


[SIZE=large]In my hands, a cross, my faith, only now, it lays broken at my feet. Mad laughter, now, much louder than before. It crept into my soul, twisting it and pulling my mind a thousand directions. The laughter changes, and in it, I hear my own laughter filling the room. [/SIZE]


[SIZE=large]The sword, my father’s blade in which he taught me how to fight and defend in my hands and always by my side. Sharp, true and a symbol of justice’s swift strike.[/SIZE]


[SIZE=large]My spirit cracked, as the blade went through my flesh and I began to scream from the pain. Almost insane from the pain, in the hall full of uneasy feelings of hatred and despair. “Trapped” I muttered, between life and death and I could never feel death’s sweet embrace, as I closed my eyes in hope that it would be for the last time.[/SIZE]


[SIZE=large]The words grew stronger in my head, to kill, to murder, only I reached out towards the heavens and cried out to God, who had turned his back. How long had I walked these halls, how many of the broken bones are the ones that I placed there? I lower my head, closing my eyes, as the sunsets and I hear the footsteps of another lost soul. [/SIZE]


[SIZE=large]I laugh in irony of my brief clear mind, of the truth that lay before me. The master, who demons and angels fear and soon, a new master would rise when death finally wrapped its bony arms around me. No, no rest, only now, I will soon wonder the halls of hatred and despair with the lost and damned souls before me. A new laughter fills the air, a never ending death and pain.[/SIZE]

Sometimes writing poetry, no matter how gruesome, is kind of cleaning up your mental harddrive.


Way more healthy to write horrid poetry than being angry or hurt etc etc irl all the time.


Keep it up!

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
How many parameters is 'too many'??
