Dark Messenger


Night's engorged corpse's maw spews forth
Sudden rider's dread appearance
As its steed's terror arch and pitch
Overwhelms with stench of sulfur,

In voices deep & black as death,
As if from ev'ry host and storm,
Resound in ancient glory raised,
'Tis he, the rider, back from Time:


"Beware, it will be ever known
That I am Devil, Satan's own,
Of Lucifer's originals.

“Of those who fell to follow him
And pass it on to souls like you,
That his is Truth, the Way, the Life
Fore'er in death and well beyond.

“That I, his Messenger elect,
Am but the only one who comes,
Not what was told would be the Christ.

“To bring the news: you are the one
With billions more who join me now,
And others who are me as well,
To be the Coming. IT IS HERE!

“For this in time won't be eclipsed,
Because our black Lord trumped your god!
Come now, bow low, you must be quick.
Eternity of work awaits...

“And there'll be no more rest for you!"

Mothers and Daughters


There are no creatures darker than
daughters and their mothers, and
even all the Japanese monsters
and living things from Lovecraft’s psyche,
run
run
run
from the fury that collides between us.

“Have mercy! You win!”
they cry in haste to retreat to safe places, hidden
from our opinions
and insults.

They watch, fearful,
as you judge me for my décor,
my food
my clothing
my income
which you have no fucking clue about

until…..

I break it down for you on paper,
exactly where it all goes—
most, to you.

Yet I’m still an asshole for suggesting
that financial support stops
when daughters get married.

(The monsters still hide,
but they’ve gotten out their popcorn, now—
it’s getting interesting…)


I despise you as well
presently,
and if I could send you back where you came from,
I would,
except I no longer have a uterus.

Monsters!
Get the fuck out of my closet—
that’s MY dark, sulking place of evil!
You’re no match for the knives that she and I
throw at each other.


We’ll wipe up the blood
and package it away for next time.

Relationships aren’t always a spectator sport….

Her Rose Stained Hands

In the bosom of the mountain calling
A foreign spirit forced to crawling
Women swarm the fire of her hand
Burning brighter under cursed command
She sends the northern deserts rain
She spreads her dress to stake her claim
And with a whisper of her breath
The demons rise to answer death
And all her sisters gather around
They talk to trees and trample the holy ground
Sing your songs to her alone
Bow to her terrestrial throne
For in their circle they make a stance
The witches perform their religious dance
The spirits teach the ways of the wood
They are cleansed in the name of sisterhood
Now they abide her desert way
Under her staff never lead astray
But it is here that fate will fall
Unless they break satanic call
She flees into her tent of red
She begs her starving soul be fed
And in her hand she opens the portal
With her sharpened knife water spilled from a mortal
She pled a witch would never waive
Now her allegiance sent to the grave
There's no place her magic stands
She cannot wipe her rose stained hands

my Succubus

She came to me
all moon dusted
traveling via
Selene's
silvery moon rays
penetrating my
restless, often lucid
dreams. She came
with sensual bait
and I hungered to drink
her dry.
I have yet to see her face
though liken to a
blind man, I KNOW I've
seen all of her and she
IS exquisite.
She neither questions
nor gives answers
only pleases and
entreats me to join
to meld with her.
I want to but........

We slept together
last night.
I woke up more
refreshed than ever
in a long, long time.

I'm still waiting
for the hook
though I suspect
she's already set
it.

A Vampire’s Love

A vampire’s love
Comes in the blackest night
A night with no soul
His night he owns its darkness
Across centuries he searches
He feeds the dark urges inside
No heartbeat no pulse
Eyes so red yet so cold
Bound by the sweetness of blood
It’s hot flowing taste
The wine of choice
Woman his chalice to sip from
Savouring pure natural delights
He gazes upon her sleeping beauty
Laying in her bedroom sanctuary
But tonight this sanctuary is his church
She will worship him like others before her
The strange control over
Will make her shiver right down her spine
He yearns for this moment
Where he touches her very being
Bringing madness a weird sense of love
Her heart will pound at his touch
Never knowing such cold passion
In her entire existence
Feeling like a dream
His masculinity exudes
Surrounding her drowning her in his animal scent
How could anything be more dangerous?
Yet so beautiful
Her pure essence is his
He is wildly drunk on her
As she completely surrenders her body
She cannot fathom why she is his
In the depths of her mind
There is a sliver of reason
But her body betrays her
There is no escape from the desire
He simply owns her in that first bite

Monsters are Real

Monsters are real,
But they don’t come in the way you think,
They don’t have wicked looking fangs
Or serrated teeth,
Or sharp claws.
They don’t have horns,
Or bat-like wings.
They don’t hide in dark corners with glowing eyes,
Or have scaly skin.
They don’t move on hind legs
Looking like evil things unleashed from hell.

Monsters are real,
But they look like every day you and me,
They have a façade of normality,
Many times of beauty.
They can be impeccably dressed,
They can have attractive smiles
(That sometimes cause a chill)
But their intentions are malicious.

Monsters come in disguises,
In the form of men who try to rule the world,
In murderers and rapists who know no boundaries.
Monsters are those in history
Who had many do their bidding and killing for them,
(And those who followed their orders)
With no regard for human life.
Monsters are those who long to deal death at every turn,
Who enjoy the suffering of others for their pleasure,
Their hatred feeds a more sinister plan,
An abhorrence of light.

Yes, monsters are real.

Dark Indifference

Shining eyes and dancing, flying steps  
with a smile that makes one feel blessed  
Their touch divine miracle, every day eternity  
Joy followed in their wake, life delighted entirely  

The change was so subtle, no precise start  
Once brilliance and light, now shadow and night  
Vacancy and darkness where upon a time  
flawless euphoria, absolute joy all mine  
 
I observe as I devolve helpless, incapable  
halting the dark indifference impossible  
Transformation would require knowledge  
uncomprehending of what possessed me  
 
Perhaps I was overrun, dominated  
A vessel for malignant wraith which hated  
Incited undiluted apathy, so very tragic  
To illuminated, immortal soul, creating utter havoc  
Recompense for who died in misery, forsaken  
 
Is this my ultimate destiny, my lifelong plight  
to be erased by impassivity, expunged from the light?  
So far excised from emotion that even logic has no part  
in the equation of salvation to bring light to my heart?  
 
Indifference is the impeccable opposite of all emotion  
blocking a soul from ecstasy here and Above  
If this is my fate, I beg for inhuman compassion  
Separate me eternally  from mortal life, if I merit love.
