While I, Unknownman, am not the world's best artist I believe that anything can be considered an "art" and that everybody has their own "art." I believe mine is poetry, and to prove it I have published several poems on the internet. Enjoy......
Please Note : I will put more poetry on this page but it may take some time. After all, even Michelangelo's painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel was not painted in a single day.
I walk were many have walked
Quickly, silently, and always stalked
I run from an uncertain fate
Brought about by my heart of hate
As I flee my past life
Evil stabs at me like a knife
Turn and Twist as I may
I cannot escape it by night or by day
Next the Darkness blocks my way
Ever present, never away
The Darkness betrays my every command
Lost am I, without the Darkness in hand
But I continue to flee
filled with dreams of soon to be glee
but those dreams shall never come
for my nightmare has only begun
Into the forest I am thrown
dodging tree and stone
my past always follows near
hunting me by my fear
I clear the trees
but only to hear the cry of pleas
for I look at my home
silently, fearfully, and alone
I look down opon a plane
without glory, without fame
I look down opon the plane of hell
cinders and ash are all I smell
It was meant to be from my birth
that hell should come to earth
but as those of evil invade
I remain standing, no longer afraid
I have seen my destiny
filled with pain, filled with He
He who attacks those in the night
ruler without glory, ruler without might
He is the one
the one who calls me his son
He is heart of hate
that who has determained my fate.
I stand my ground
He comes forward,bringing his lonesome sound
the sound of others who challenged him
those of the shadows, those of the dim
But as I face the heart of my former self
I spot a ray of hope, a ray of help
She comes to my aid
to counter the hideous raid.
She of the shadows, She of the light
She who flys as a dragon, into the night
She brings me away from my fears
She who helps settle my tears
But the hell on earth spreads
hundreds corrupted, hundreds dead
He has come to fetch me
He has come to kill me
I think for a moment and then pause
realizing what I have caused
I stand as the lord without might
I stand as the lord of the night
But as hell pushes me back
I never stop, never stop my attack
The forces of hell cannot be slain
But still I walk towards them, on that unholy plane
I walk towards him
with a face of the grim
I stand face to face with my past
and yet it doesn’t move, it doen’t pass
I am the wall between the light and the darkness
I am both careing, and yet at the same time heartless
I have brought opon myself this one and only curse
I am the Hell, and I am on earth....

Highest Mountain to Deepest Sea
Today I traveled the greatest distance,
From the highest mountain to the deepest sea,
Alone I travel and wander in my ways,
Not a sole that cares, Not a sole that prays.
I just walk where my feet take me, and I never seem to stop.
For my thoughts are not of walking, the distance I'm covering or the
time,
They are of you, and only you.
I seek to find another like you, to replace what you have done to me,
But there is no other, no person anywhere in the world as wonderful
as you.
As I walk where few have past, on top of the world, my thoughts are
not of the view,
but the only true love I ever had, you.
As a pace opon the ocean floor, not a sound, not a sight is more on
my mind then my one and only dearest.
As I stride the open road, not a sound do I hear besides your beautiful
voice, speaking the words of long past love.
Without you I am lost, lost on this road of sadness.
Without you I am doomed to wander this path of sorrow.
And without you, the greatest distance shall I cover, not growing tired
or hungry, until the day I die.
My life is forever in your hands, and you sqeeze ever last drop of
blood out of me.
But no matter my words, my actions,or my love. You still always are
there, attacking me with your beauty.
But if I should ever travel to the tallest mountain again, I shall
be sure to throw a rose down opon this earth, in hopes that it will land
in your hands as you stroll down the path I once walked, before I jump
to my death.
And if I should ever wander the ocean floor again, I will be sure to
send a bottle containing my last words, my words of love to you, in hopes
that you will receive it, before I drown.
So is the fate of me, wanderer of the lost, dweller of darkness, and
lord of the unknown. Unknownman..........

.....and yet I seek the impossible.....
Today I wanted to be what I am not
I wrote my soul a letter saying to get out
Now my soul is lost in the realm of time
for it shall never return and yet I seek the impossible....
Today I destroyed what I wanted to create
I cast my heart into a block of solid ice
Now I can neither feel for nor be felt by those who love me
for my heart remains cold and yet I seek the impossible....
Today was the worse of all nightmares
I dreamt my brain was burned to a crisp
Now I am insane and lost to all reason
for my mind is gone and yet I seek the impossible....
Today I seek what cannot be sought
I search for a cure to my madness
Now I wait for my heart to be released from it’s icy chamber
and for my soul to return, but that is the impossible that I seek......

Now I see that love is more then what I thought it would be,
I see that you and I were meant to be.
But as overcome my fear of love,
Overhead soars the bird of love, the dove.
Now I see your eyes,
Raidaint enough for me to look at you, a true prize.
But as I look into your eyes,
I feel your lips opon mine, to my delight and suprise.
Now I see myself putting my arm around you,
Showing my love, my love always true.
But as I put my arm around you,
I feel you move close to me, you and only you.
Now I see why love eluded me so,
Was I brave and fearless of this force ? no.
This loved stormed my heart, a castle mighter then one of stone,
But as I feel your heart beat against mine, I regret my time has come,
and I must go home.
Now I see the darker side of love, the hurt.
I hurt because I can no longer hold you in my arms and look into your
eyes.
And I depart from a world of happiness,
for you own my heart and my love.
-Unknownman, April 24, 1998
Tonight I feel the ultimate torture,
that of not being with you.
Tonight I face the greatest of all my fears,
you not being in my arms.
Tonight I dine opon a feast of lonelyness,
for I cannot see you every minute of every day.
Tonight I sleep in sadness,
haunted by the bad side of love, it not being here.
Tonight I wake in fear of losing you,
for my dreams tell me of a great misfortue.
Tonight I do not dream of happiness,
nightmares attack me, reminding me I’m not with you right now.
Tonight.......
A true tale of suffering.....
Tonight I dance with you among the clouds,
for I am in heaven when I am with you.
Tonight I feast my eyes opon a being,
a being that blinds me with her beauty, you.
Tonight I fall deeper into love with you,
so much that I cry now that I am not with you.
Tonight I ignore the pains of my past,
for they are replaced by my hopes for the future.
Tonight I have found a great happiness,
that of holding, dancing with, and kissing you.
Tonight I stare at love itself,
a force which has captivated me for all time.
Tonight......
How I wish it could never end.....
Never have I felt this way before.
Never did I think love was so strong.
Never did I dream that love was so sweet.
Never did I expect to fall in love......
But I felt the way I feel now.
That feeling of an un-dieing love for you.
And my thoughts availed me not,
For love is strong, stronger then I thought it would be.
Tonight.......
May it never end.....

No, such a simple word, but with so many uses.
Such as "There is no such thing", "No way !!!", and
"No.....I cannot love you...."
While the first two may be common phrases, the third descibes
what could be a lie.
I have loved you before, and I still do love you. But my love
belongs to another as well.
No, I will not allow myself to love another, for doing so
is dishonorable.
No, I will not stand for two people to love me now, for doing
so is heartbreaking.
No, I will not love 2 people at the same time, for doing so is
immpossible.
No, I will not love you.
This word, harsh but true, speaks of how I think and what I do.
No, how I wish I could destroy this word, for it brings hatred
and suffering.
No, how I wish I could bless this word, for it has saved the
lives of many.
But, this word threatens my life. So who's wishes do I honor
??? Certainly not my own....
No, I will not allow myself to love another, for doing so
is dishonorable.
No, I will not stand for two people to love me now, for doing
so is heartbreaking.
No, I will not love 2 people at the same time, for doing so is
immpossible.
No, I will not love you.
Placeing one's values above those of who he loves is a sin that
cannot be forgotten.
A crime that cannot be truely punished. A felony worth the death
penalty.
And at the same time, I think to myself, "No, you cannot risk
your life for them...One will aid you,
Yet the other will destroy you....
No, I will not allow myself to love another, for doing so
is dishonorable.
No, I will not stand for two people to love me now, for doing
so is heartbreaking.
No, I will not love 2 people at the same time, for doing so is
immpossible.
No, I will not love you.
So how do I continue loving you ?
That question, of all questions, is one I cannot answer.
The answer lies within you, and only you.
So please, I beg of you, tell me. Can I love you ???
......That's what I thought you'd say..........No.........
-Unknownman, April 7, 1998
Laugh at me you fools,
for I am here merely to entertain.
Laugh at me you people,
I'm hilarious, and your not !!!
Laughter
It can mean many things
It can bring joy or happiness
Or hatred and dispair.
For joy comes to those who laugh
and to those who don't, hatred.
Hate you I will,
curse your souls into an eternity of pain.
Hate you I shall,
Relentless torture and destruction shall follow me.
Hatred
It can do so many things.
It can allow those who suffer to fight back
or cause neutrals to attack.
For revenge comes to those who suffer
and to those who abuse this power, death.
Kill you I must,
Destroy your body and slay your soul
You must kill me,
For those of hatred deserve not to live.
Death
It's the ultimate power
It can destroy your enemies
or yourself
Those who suffer and hate destroy those they dispise
While those who just hate, die.

The Birth of an angel, the
birth of a demon, The birth of Unknownman. .....
Alone, a soldier stands among a thousand dead.
All were his enemies, and all are now gone.
He lowers his weapon, his mission complete
But he doesn't notice the shadow that slips past his guard.
The soldier takes a moment to think.
About what he has done.
He almost feels sorry for those who were slain.
But at the same time, he is happy for his enemys' deaths...
Then he spots a figure on the horizon.
A figure he has never seen before.
He readys his weapon, but without fear
for he killed a million today, one more wouldn't matter.....
The figure stands face to face with a man,
the most deadly man in the world.
And what weapons does this figure carry ?
hatred, lonelyness, and a frozen heart.
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
the soldier is powerless to these weapons
as much as he fights it
hatred, lonelyness, and a frozen heart overpower him.
The hatred attacks his mind.
bending it's power to serve evil.
The lonelyness strikes at his past,
making him fully aware of the pains of what once was.
And what does this frozen heart destroy ?
Simply his former heart
for the heart of a child was overcome by a frozen heart.
a heart which prevents emotions from harming him...
The soldier fights these things that corrupt him
but alas, he fails, and these things burn themselves within him.
He cries out in pain, for he is being changed
He is being changed into a demon...
His body now destroyed,
His heart now in shatters.
The figure smiles and says,
"I am your honor, and you are now mine."
His honor becomes one with him,
bestoying him the ability to live once more.
but not as a soldier of fortune
but as a knight of the shadows...
He was given his mission,
"speard evil to the rest of the earth"
"cover the land in the darkness of your shadow"
"and let It be known, the shadow realm owns this world, and you."
Weakened by this figure, the soldier accepts.
He dawns the cloak of darkness.
He vows to fight for evil.
but silently, he vows to destroy it.
The soldier became the untouchable, the heartless, the unknown....
he has become a servant of evil
but as he becomes these things,
his silent vow is heard,....
Bestowed by the heavens,
The sword of truth is given to him
He slays this figure who brought upon him this curse....
but in vain, for the figure has served his purpose...
He becomes the knight of honor,
but remains the knight of darkness.
He becomes the essence of pure neutrality.
but remains the slave of evil.
Armed with the cloak of darkness and the sword of truth,
he emerges to be what he is now.
He becomes the Lord of the unseen, the unheard, the unknown....
He becomes, Unknownman......
So was the comming of Unknownman, Lord of the Unknown.....
What is this
that rolls down your cheek
What could it be
those tiny things
Shimmering so brightly
Like stars in the night sky
Moving so gracefully
Like dancers performing
And yet, these things are not happy ones
Instead they show the hurt I have cast upon you
So beautiful, and yet such sadness comes from them
Tears.....a mystery to me....
You said that you loved me,
and yet you still cry
You said you were in heaven when I was near
but, now I am here, and you speak not of heaven
Instead you speak of the things I try to hide
My past and my emotions
What have I done ?
What did I say ?
How is it that I brought this depression to you ?
Tears.....How can this be ?
I now face my weakness
emotions, my worse of nightmares
I had hardened my heart before
but why is it that I now feel bad ?
Uncertain am I, of this pain you now have
All I know for certain, is that I feel it now
Heartless but careing
Careless but loving.
I am these things
So why is it that I now cry ?
Tears.....are now all I see....
