Sanguinary Kiss
ensnared by such mere prosaic prattle
drawn eye to eye by an enigmatic placid damsel
cryptic conundrum swathed in the shroud
materialized the ballroom corner in a cloud
her gaze unblinking and unwavering no restraints
creature exempt from the humanly constraints
human physiology out for all to see, pure bare
the maiden, now standing nose to nose with me
tilted her neck emitting a series of sickening
echoed through the golden silence of dream
fingers, maggots pulsing grave, bore in my cheeks
twisted my mind a full hundred and eighty
like a bottle cap she kept turning and turning
my muscle and meat straining taut and popping
snapping sinew, breaking bones, chips grinding
face in agony as I swivel my eyeballs hastily
a cork pop and a crimson waterfall, a trophy
air thick a tang, miasma of this bile baleful vitae
raw visceral tearing from bone, keys the play
marionette on strings, body, a life’s mockery
it lunged, hands flailing, erratic as it ran away
turns me to see her teeth jagged, blackened lips
kiss upon mine in French, tongue a centipede
crawling into my brain and out spews my socket
gives my oozy ick a lick then her own velvets
sick twisted chick then it all went nebulous
