Write some dark poetry - it must be really dark - though not gory because thats not dark thats just blood and guts and been seen before. I want darkness thats so dark we haven't seen it before - thats why this contest is called Eyes in the Dark - I want the darkest of dark - as dark and cold as you can get - without writing about death.
I like good arty poetry, and I will remove your poem if it is sick, psychologically disturbing or describing how you are going to dismember your girlfriend.
Thank you for your darkest co operation.

Hm. I disagree with your entire view of dark poetry.

I had a very hard time picking a poem for this contest; most of my stuff is blood, gore, or really disturbing, so I wasn't sure how you'd like this one... but I'm super-glad you did

Thanks so much for the gold & well done to all the winners
