Goth poetry is easy: all you need is rhyming couplets and the words ‘dark’, ‘soul’, ‘night’, and ‘black’. Past that you get bonus points for the inclusion of ‘abyss’ and any classical mythology reference you can think of. Bear in mind that the classical reference doesn’t actually have to make sense, only to fit in the rhyming scheme. Let’s try this:<\/p>\n
Oh my soul,
\nLost in a hole,
\nOf darkness and melancholy,
\nLike the dress on a depressed dolly,
\nRaging in the abyss,
\nMy anger I miss,
\nLike Eve’s first kiss,
\nThat is my heart’s wish.<\/p>\n
