Image for the poem The Devil

The Devil's Diva

The scarlet diva bleeds supreme
A woman carried on a razor's whim
Her films lensed by daddy dear
Then followed by a cult
 
Her ferocity aligned to sinema
The foil for psychotics
Demented thugs with leather gloves
And phantoms to the bitter end
 
She tries directing filmic art
And scorches up the screen
Shots called in a foreign tongue
Then a melt down when the lights turn low
 

She's referred to as a queen of screams
Triumphant over those who would dissect her
And a practitioner of feral sex
Captured on giallo celluloid
 
She now resides in shadows
Those acolytes loyal to her chosen end
The perfect role eluding her
But the darkest stars can't help but grin.
 
Inspired by actress Asia Argento
