Well, I'm not dead. Yes, readers (if they haven't grown old and withered), I still exist. Poems are getting me out of a writers funk, so please enjoy. Their a bit dark (hah, a bit?), but hey, thats how I wright.

Disclaimer: I do not own YGO, Bakura, or anyone else. These poems, however, are mine.

Insane mistress, in deceptive innocence

Bakura's Walls

The darkness of a mind. Can anyone comprehend it? Surely, mine is darker than any. After all, I AM darkness! Alone with my shadows, I wright. I wright and I plot. And why not? I, who have not yet recovered from my last loss to the Pharaoh. Without the strength to attack, I wright.

My walls are covered in my poems. Little Ryou never comes in here now, says the poems disturb him. An improvement, for hosts should not be heard or seen. Save for the occasional stress relief. Punishing innocence is a welcome distraction.

I am publishing my poems because...I want to. I want others to squirm, to feel fear. I want the Pharaoh to read them, because I want him to know what he's dealing with. Yes Pharaoh, I want you too see my darkness , and perhaps you will despair. Sweat. Fear. Yes, fear me. As you well should.

Play MY Game

Author: Bakura.

Play my game with me

In MY darkness

Darkness is a force

A power

Rooted in dreams

Rooted in being alone

True darkness is what a child feels

When they are alone in there room at night

When the most vague shadow holds a grotesque horror

A chilling terror

Let me show you the blind terror of a child

Let it fill your soul, your heart

Let it govern your irrational thoughts

I am behind you, feel the chills

My monsters are in your closet

Their under your bed.

I stand in the dark corner, you can't see me

Look again, I'm gone.

In my realm of shadows

The game of terror has just begun.

So close your window

Go ahead, lock your door

It doesn't matter.

I'm already there

Time to play

Red

Author: Bakura

Shining, red, glistening

My ocean is red

My vision is red

My eternity is red

Red with the blood of hundreds

Ones I'd known, and strangers

Enemies, friends, lovers

Red are my hands

Red are my blades

Red is blood

Delicious

Red will run your blood

Red your tears, red, red

Pretty red

Delicate crimson

Every vein

Every artery

Every thin string of red in your body

Will empty for me

For the thirsty ground

It loves the blood too

Well, that was...Interesting. It seems Bakura has been spending a leeetle too much time in the soul room. Whatever, it gives us some deliciously disturbed poetry. R & R!
