Legion

   
   
my black heart aches    
with ashes on my tongue    
spit maggots from the pit    
   
legion is in discontent    
I can't quell their squabbles    
the hierarchy is in fits    
   
Lucifer please put them in their place    
they're out of order    
cause my goth mind to go insane    
   
I'm a dead horse    
they've ridden into the ground    
   
dethroned as your beloved    
I wear a black crown upside down    
now just your court jester    
   
take me back to your throne    
dressed in a gown of scorched corpse skin    
let me writhe in your presence    
taste your approval once more    
   
legion is in discontent    
I can't quell their squabbles    
the hierarchy is in fits    
   
bathed in the blood of the River Styx    
baptize me into hell    
gaze at me with dragon eyes    
   
bring me home to your blackened palace    
because even my demons are down    
   
   
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Inspired by HadesRising poem -Down Again-
