Dark Poems Are A Mood Thing

Writing a dark poem for me, Is all about mood. What mood am in? If I'm happy, Content, At one with the whole universe around me. Well they speak for themselves. But if, I'm dog tired, My mood is dark. If something bad(very rarely)has happened, At the museum where I work, My mood is dark. If some idiot driving down, The motorway is cutting every one up, My mood is dark. And if I'm just in a dark mood, I guess my mood is dark. Sometimes, which is most times when I'm happy, It's because I know how to wrap a dark poem. Simply highlight and shadow. The truth is... The ratio is so much more than ten to one There is far much more light in my mood and writing, Than fathomless darkness. And I'm glad it's that way.
