[WP] A scientist discovers how to harness to dark matter, only to discover it opens a rift between reality and the spiritual realm. | Well, I guess that's why they call it *dark* matter.
This is so not the time, Bucky.
This is probably why they say that the average ghost is *mean* spirited.
Terrible. Also, get your ass over here and help me barricade the door.

Saturday afternoon with nothing to do,
I stare out the window, thinking of you.
The sunlight slowly fades from view.
I sit here alone, but I do not want to.
I wonder how long you've been away.
You said you would only be a day.
I have watched seventy-four of them tick by.

[MP] Poetry Contest - 6 months of reddit gold in prizes | It is sad to see,
things come and go.
Like it was meant to be,
memories sent below.
To the deep dark,
in time to be forgot.
Until that rabid spark,
returns the thought.
Bent and broken,
distorted by time.
A perceived token,
of the original prime.
Molding your reflection,
to your current perception.

Time snaps, running wide,
Time to make the High Ride,
Evening transport carrying me,
Freedom bound, homeward flee,
Casting off drudgery's shackles,
Blasting off on a euphoric rocket,
Heading home before I'm spotted,
And my boss observes me,
And the dross subversive me,

I will sing to the heavens on high,
I let go all my fear, all my doubt,

When it seems that I can't struggle through,
When my troubles collect once again,
I will scream if that's all I can do--
In the end, I believe in the pain.
