Prey |
| Nightfall, in thrall |
| I call her beauty to me |
| Whose ebon-lidded eyes excite |
| Shadows to wander through me |
| Whose kiss glittered with sleep |
| Is a thief come after dark |
| To steal away the leaden wreaths |
| From my cemetery heart |
| Thrilled to see the light |
| Bruise-reddened, silhouetting |
| Murder sites |
| As dusk attends her son’s blood wedding |
| Spilt across the skies |
| In reefs of omen |
| Licking flames and pagan rites |
| The night awaits with baited thighs |
| Start this artist darkness |
| Yearning now to start this |
| Burning as an artist |
| Turning on the darkness |
| Dizzy looking up with pervertigo |
| A sewer deity of recrement |
| World below |
| I’ll make you pray |
| I spy with wicked lips |
| The cream of mortal kind |
| Committing their sins |
| Their penitent skins |
| To the harems of my mind |
| Prey |
| Thrilled to breathe tonight |
| The sultry air of graces |
| Passed in flight |
| Like birds of May with playful faces |
| Fills me with delight |
| Their crystal skirts |
| Spun from stars, worn tight |
| Wink of fists in wishful places |
| Start this artist darkness |
| Yearning now to start this |
| Burning as an artist |
| Turning on the darkness |
| Dizzy looking up with pervertigo |
| A sewer deity of recrement |
| World below |
| I’ll make you pray |
| My whims like smoke in summertime |
| Writhe atop the blooms |
| Committing their thin |
| White Catholic limbs |
| To the cloister in my room |
| You see I need |
| To feed my dreams to order |
| To be agreed |
| With the beast in me |
| That bleeds their borders |
| Prey |
| Nightfall, in thrall |
| I call her beauty to me |
| Whose ebon-lidded eyes excite |
| Shadows to wander through me |
| Whose kiss glittered with sleep |
| Is a thief come after dark |
| To steal away the leaden wreaths |
| From my cemetery heart |
