I've read a poem by Frank Standford called 'The Battlefield where the Moon Says I Love You'. It's a fifteen thousand line behemoth with no breaks and no punctuation, and it's probably the darkest stuff I've ever read. The exerpt on the back of the tome reads:
im not going anywhere
ill just bleed so the stars have something dark
to shine in
The poem, along with Stanford's other work, is riddled with allusions to death and loss; I would suggest anyone to read any of his writings if you can find it
