My Favorite Game

One of you here will be hunted    
For quite some time that's all I've wanted  
Picked randomly one is selected      
No volunteers can be accepted  
 
You will be taken against your will    
And forced to play a game of thrill  
Deep in the woods the game is played        
The rules are clear that I have made  
 
Survive the night and you'll go free          
All the while eluding me  
The hunt will start when I say go        
I'll shoot you now if you say no  
 
Thirty minutes I'll give to you            
A sporting chance til I pursue  
Don't be afraid this won't take long      
Die with honor and finish strong  
 
Deep Underground is where I've found        
To be the perfect hunting ground  
Here writers think three moves ahead        
But unlike chess check means you're dead  
 
Somehow you must stay wide awake  
The forest waits for your mistake                        
A panicked mind will not prevail                
Distractions leave an easy trail    
           
I hear the sound of branches crack                      
I slowly pull my crossbow back  
A laser scope has you in sight  
Long streaks of red cut through the night  
 
An arrow flies to meet its mark  
Shrieks echo from the distant dark  
Gasp for miles to catch your breath                    
You can't outrun a certain death  
 
Tracked for hours and losing speed                          
But time won't give you what you need  
I see your eyes caught in the moon      
And taste the kill that's coming soon  
 
There on the ground against a log  
The chase ends with the morning fog  
With bloody hands you beg and cry          
You pee yourself before you die  
 
Then always comes my favorite part  
A close range shot that stops your heart  
Once more I pose holding my prize  
Sometimes I like to keep the eyes
 
Against your mouth I press my lips
I bite your tongue until it rips
Your genitals I will eat first  
And drink your blood to quench my thirst  
 
Deep Underground now minus one
The game goes on until there's none
Human trophies align my wall
Not just the heads but skins and all
 
There's no country I haven't been  
And every hunt I always win  
Each month I'll draw a different name          
One more will play my favorite game

Wendy's Wishing Well

I like you Wendy I always did      
From when I was a little kid      
For decades now I thought of you      
Of all the things that I would do      
     
Like set a trap for us to meet      
To snatch you from a darkened street      
And drive you to a distant farm                                      
Where everyday you’ll come to harm      
     
I take your clothes and leave you bare      
With just regret for you to wear      
Down in a deep abandoned well      
Awaits for you a horrid smell      
                             
A dark and cold secluded pit      
There’s biting flies that never quit        
It’s where I dump the mammals’ waste              
And other things you’ll get to taste      
     
You will go mad down in the hole      
The passing years will take its toll      
Nothing Wendy can set you free      
Only vengeance appeals to me        
     
I do recall some time ago        
I asked you out but you said no      
For months I begged for just one date      
When you said no you sealed your fate      
     
All women since always said no                
You were the first I want you to know      
Revenge has come to claim its turn          
The joys of pain you soon will learn      
     
Filthy vermin gnaw at your skin      
By the hundreds I pour them in      
You scream and jump as rats advance      
I play soft music and watch you dance      
     
Like an animal without a soul      
You thrash around with no control      
On broken glass you get to rest          
Where hungry rats have made a nest        
     
I like to see how slow you bleed      
And just how fast the rats can feed      
Your blood and vomit serve as your bath      
A disgusting scene that makes me laugh      
     
Wet excrement runs down the walls      
With guts and flesh that often crawls      
At the bottom there is no light      
Just crying sounds of sheer delight      
     
Giant roaches will be your food        
Tasty maggots might boost your mood      
I lower down your favorite drink      
Sewer water with spit I think      
     
You make demands to let you out      
How beautiful to hear you shout      
Pray for mercy then beg and plead              
Your God’s right here I’m all you need      
     
Tell me Wendy if pain is real      
When I say no how does it feel        
I know you’ll make a special pet      
Filled with memories I won’t forget      
                 
Tomorrow night I’ll kill your mom      
Your dad is next so just stay calm      
I’ll torture them before they die      
And make you watch but please don’t cry      
     
Then drop them both in naked form      
Down in with you to keep you warm      
All those you love will not survive      
They’ll join you here while you’re alive      
     
Above the pit hung by her feet      
Your sister’s screams are really sweet      
I’ll cut her down before she’s dead      
But what will fall is just her head      
     
All hope is lost as is your mind      
Humanity you’ll never find      
Sometimes Wendy a wish comes true        
I got my wish I wished for you    
   
   
Inspired by Wendy.    
Oh, what could have been.

For this I decided to write opposite sides to the same coin: The beauty if death


- - - LORELEI - - -

I long for winter's breath
To pass beyond lips of death
No matter how hard I try
I just can't please Lorelei

I hear her song
Sweet and deceptive
That's promising
Deliverance
From this Hel

Lorelei, right beneath the surface
Of glassy water's caress
I long to feel her kiss
Carry me to endless bliss, Lorelei

A man without a world
Exists outside of the fold
There's no excuse for his scorn
Leave him ragged, bled and torn

But still her song
Pale and seductive
Is like honey
In her laments
From her Hel

Lorelei, right beneath the surface
Put me in water's caress
I long to feel her kiss
Carry me to deathly bliss, Lorelei

What magic is this?
Faerie queen incarnate
Spinning webs
Of sorcery, intricate
But her candles burn
'Neath waters churn
With mulled wine
We celebrate

At last the peace was found
Not in tombs underground
But beside frigid rivers
Where she stares back like mirrors

You hear her song
Sweet and deceptive
That's promising
Deliverance
From this Hel

Lorelei, right beneath the surface
Of glassy water's caress
Who longs to feel her kiss?
Carry them to endless bliss, Lorelei
Lorelei, right beneath the surface
Put me in water's caress
I long to feel her kiss
Carry me to deathly bliss, Lorelei








Lorelei...

- - - LILLITH - - -

The pages turn 'neath the moon
As Lillith sweetly sings her tune
Joyously laughing as I twitch
In her dead cold arms while we spoon
The forest answers her call
As serpents, vermin, insects all
Comes to the beckoning of the bitch
Join them, willingly, as they crawl
 
To the flawless godless
 
Red with blood of recently dead
Sacrifices in burning beds
Bodies hang in twisted cinch
Those wedding night blues of dread
Her gracious fall from heavens
Reserved for bitter gods craven
Who removed her like witch
To fornicate with the ravens
 
The tempest and the beast of man
 
In the afterglow
Of first born undertows
I offer unto her
This wasted flesh
Of new born breath
Fresh from the womb
And, lo, she swooned
Grinning with the doom
Awaiting sacrifices
Within her tomb
 
Maggots crawled betwixt of skin
Waiting for the show to begin
New bodies writhe within the ditch
Jealous angels give into sin
Moans were heard across the shores
Even spent, left me wanting more
My sweet necromantic bitch
Burn my desire to the core
 
Like the demon you are
 
There's no seraphim
That I will not condemn
When she does plant her kiss
On mortal flesh
Giving new breath
Fresh from her maw
And bloody claws
Stuff between her jaws
Innocent sacrifices
Heed Lillith's call

Fluffy chicks with claws and teeth
Arrest the soul from underneath,
Selecting options on a dare
And on our own we say a prayer.
Creeping through the night with vision
Bright of eye and dark ambition,
Soft of down and barbs a gleaming
The gentleness of death undreaming.
Sucking shadows of velvet night
Draw upon the beggars plight
And like the chicks with claws and teeth
Drag the soul down underneath.
Visiting the lands of fey
To seek some colour in the grey
Return again from night sojourn
So much is lost of what we learn.
