The Serpent Awaits

A room in shadowed gloom
doused in sweet red perfume
eyes like a wolf of the cold and blackest
heart
her tongue licked her teeth
like sensuality caressing violence
vampirical and lyrical
like rain in the dark
An animal in a teal green dress
corset strained by carnal thirst
sexuality imprisoned , screaming
'neath the weight of proper decor
Her grin whispered silent dreams
of awful and delicious things
her breast seemed to swell and gorge
with the maddening of the tempest roar
She then threw the shutters apart
the storm howled like the morning star
plummeting from cliffs of heaven
into swirling abyss of gnashing teeth
She climbed down through the safe windows
of our restraint and social credos
into the vortex of unknown and
the black of witches breath
Many years her vanished form
lay heavy 'pon the shadowed gloom
Still her smell of red perfume
broods and breeds my saddness
In a letter written to her priest
Said she , I am now releashed
to wash my face , thoughts and teeth
in the blood of bestial maddness
I've felt the seed of her infection
knelt and gorged on blood seduction
drained and decapitated the beasts
in the late evening fields
Heed me now ye of the light
taste not the flesh of the serpent's night
farewell to you and the cliffs of heaven
she awaits outside my window
