“Just Write.”

The only way to become a writer is through writing. Uninhibited, the dark poet expresses through discovery, and open realm. Free from the social norm, and what we're taught writing "should be", the dark poet writes.

We are writers with a better view. We illuminate from behind shadows. Labeled dark, we are enlightened. When they say "others", they mean us. We are a great many things, and many things that are great. Who are we?
Dark Poets Society

You remember that in grade school we're taught writing is constructed from 5 parts or a structure. That it's spelling, grammar, and vocabulary.Suddenly you're frozen by basic fundamentals.
Or perhaps "getting there" wasn't a problem. You have pages and pages with thousands of words of free flowing thought, unabashed expression, and candid reflection. You recall sharing a piece you are particularly proud of with your mom or a friend, and heard "you can't write about that" or "that's a poem? It doesn't even rhyme" or "I don't get it."

While bricks are used to build a house, they do not make a home.In a sense the same goes for writing. What we are taught it "should be", is only the foundation of writing. Think of it as a tool for seeing yourself and the world around you. Writing is ideas, sounds, smells, feelings, dreams, people, places, fantasies. Writing is whatever you make it. Writing is __________________________.

A dark society, does not entirely mean an evil one, per se. The dark poet (or writer rather) does not only write about death, gloom and doom. A dark poets society is not completely made up of depressed, sadistic, or insane writers. However, all of the aforementioned may exist, its only a part of what we mean by "dark". It's true that what inst considered "normal" gravitates here, and we welcome it. What seeks comfort in the shadows we embrace. We provide a platform for writers to express them selves and be heard without ridicule. This is a place where our work is read without judgment, nor bias. A place where we are not told we can't reveal a piece of our soul. Our exposed soul is not picked a part, and more often than not, someone does "get it".
