curse wretched

 
venom of words and essence of malice
seven drops mixed into this chalice
the moon bleeds a ruby red
the stars vanished, evil mist

strips of dignity, shorn and shredded
nightmares, terrors, all that’s dreaded
with the devil’s talon stir it blacker
it bubbles and hisses, acid kisses

throw the flames greener, higher
let jealousy fuel this cursed fire
here is regret crushed to powder
come now, sisters, stings and blisters

the vial of vileness is now sealed
scalps and eyelids pretty peeled
closer, closer, sweet, fair maiden
trust milk thistle, wet your whistle…
