Species.

 

I am toxic but unmarked,

No dainty hourglass adorns my thigh;

Only hourglass hips have I.



No yellow streak

No angler’s smirk

My peril lies hidden under flesh clockwork,

Beneath coal eyes and

Proud rib-cage



A rotting heart lay plumped with lies,

Like cholesterol, clinging

To my veins.



I am a special breed, you see

An evolution, if you
may
.

With Lady Lilith’s DNA

I am a plague on monogamy.



The virile succubus is I

For I was always meant
to be

A living paradox with desire

Oozing out from every seam.



No sincere grin

No latent tear

My truth lies hidden under a harsh performance,

Beneath matte face and

Pursed, red lips



A rotting boy lay trapped in the cage,

Of a grotesque metaphor,

He begs for death.
