A little dark poetry for Halloween…
Terror, My Friend
Terror,
I know you-
He does not,
You sweet thing,
Saucy delicacy,
Salivating at your sight
Evil lessons, twisted tales:
All taught with lust
Gory incisions parting soft skin
-please come in!
Lifting strands pulled tight
Behind his neck in delight
Feel the strain
Love your pain
Terror,
See the cold blue
Does he understand yet?
Evil lessons, twisted tales:
He must be aware
Ignite the stick
Bind his limbs
Melt the casing
Brown, black, bubble
Smell his shell
Bones do burn
It is not hot enough:
he does not know
Sweet friend, so soft
Terror,
Fill the porcelain tub
Bind his limbs
Hold him under
See the shudder
Fading convulsions
Bulging eyes, sky blue
Death’s stare seeing you
finally,
Terror,
It is over
Terror,
I found you
Seize me!
Envelope me,
with your dark hug
Terror,
Evil lessons, twisted tales
Soon, like new lovers,
we dance as one
