Once More

By Malcholm Dark

Gray and purple skies
Memories cut me deep
Smell the rain coming
Hear the thunder clap
Light abandons my dreams
Dreams abandon my reality...

Mr. Death has taken you away
and fucked me over once more.

Sail on my newspaper boat
Down rain swollen gutters
In through the storm drains
Swallowed by the darkness
Scream the unholy screams
Never seen alive again...

A clown with sharp teeth lives down there
and Pennywise has fucked me over once more.

IT
Lives
Once more!

A former member wrote: here, here! I toast! to IT.... damn I loved that book... never was the same after I saw the flick... something about the mystery of the end didn't transfer as well as it played in my mind... *raises glass*

here, here... very few of his books transfer well into movies... had they used the written ending in Pet Sematary in the movie, we would still be afraid of the dark...

Had they made Misery completely faithful to the book, it might have been too graphic for the general viewing public lol. Of course I wouldn't have minded much.

IT, the reason every child hated clowns. It seems like just yesterday I saw that paper sail boat flowing into the storm drain. Nicely written my friend, and remember, "we all float down here."
