Image for the poem The Queen of Night

The Queen of Night

Her great eye stares through the abyss
Piercing the hearts of beasts
Running wild to hunt at night
Kissed and blessed in the full moon light

Wolf mother, like no other
Enchanting me in silver light
Beast inside, it needs to dine
On haunted moors, the eerie cry
The barking of the hunting pack

I still remember the first seduction
The suction and rutting one cold winter evening
Then to dismember the last princess bride
In ballrooms with heirlooms splattered red when she screamed

Luna, wolf mother
Bless my heart with your shining light
Luna, moon mother
Unleash the beast to prowl the night

Devour, the midnight hour
Draws ever closer for the hunt
The tall tales of living hell
Are told behind closed doors, recount
Beyond the sight of Luna’s eye

The rapid beating of their frantic hearts
Reveal the parting so daunting, flesh rips apart
Ravenous eating under Luna’s watch
Entwined bestial, lustful, howling wicked screams

Luna, moon mother
Why must you leave? Why won’t you stay?
Luna, wolf mother
You keep the morning far away

Is it a blessing
Or a curse
To rehearse
The kill in the dark?
To give into
The wolf heart
Desire
To kill again

To lap the warm blood
Of fresh kills
Is my right
I am the alpha
Under her eye
She beckons
Silver light
To feast again

Her great eye, a spark of magic
She is the queen of night
With her pack of hungry wolves
Kissed and blessed in the winter woods

Luna, moon mother
Why must you leave? Why won’t you stay?
Luna, wolf mother
You keep the morning far away

Luna, wolf mother
Bless my heart with your shining light
Luna, moon mother
Unleash the beast to prowl the night
