Dusk And Her Embrace

When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake 
And the mists steal in with ease 
Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes 
In adoration of the moon and thee 


"They call as I to thee...." 


And I will come, as if in dream 
My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen 
Of vengeful, ancient breed 
Gilded with the pelts of many enemies 
Erishkigal, raven-haired 
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair 
I can taste thy scent by candlelight 
Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair 
Appease the beast on spattered sheets 
Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps 


Nocternity.... 
She shall come for me 


A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life 
Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night 
And I have ridden from the westerning light 
To expend my lust 
Tear away the funereal dress 
Know that I will escape from my death 
Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress 


Lo! The pale moonlight 
Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline 
Of mist and moth and the hunger inside 
Kisses took to fever and the fever, demise 


"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise 
My scarlet tears will run 
As stolen blood and whispered love 
Of fantasies undone" 


Countess swathed in ebony 
And snow-white balletic grace 
Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish 
For lust and her disgrace 


Dusk and her embrace 


We shall flit through the shadows 
Like a dream of (were)wolves in the snow 
Under deadly nightshade 
Still warmed with the kill's afterglow 


Beneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me 
(Beneath the stars taste the death in me) 
Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss 
To sever thin mortality 


Elizabeth 
My heart is thine 
Thy fragrant words Warm within like wine.... 


"Let me come to thee" 
With eyes like Asphodel 
Moon-glancing, loose desires free 
To writhe under my spell" 


Ereshkigal, raven-haired 
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair 
I know thy scent by candlelight 
Immortal flesh I yearn to share 
Appease the beast on spattered sheets 
Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps 
Nocternity 
She shall come for me.... 


Unfurl thy limbs breathless succubus 
How the full embosomed fog 
Imparts the night to us....
