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-

Infernally fine write Lady Crim. Lucifer himself would be impressed by your eloquence, and sense of humor.

Your goth sanity is safe, seems to me. Excellent work!

I, along with Legion, are deeply honored by this. I raise my horns to you, Lady Crim.
When you get to the blackness of despair, when the shit 'n shinola fills you mouth with the gist of the worlds filth and decay and all you can do is swallow the bile, it is then time to write such a poem and cast yourself down to the tortures of hell and damnation and give unto Beelzebub, which you have done in fine-ass style, Brenda

Enormous awe for the might of your dark ink, my lady. For a change, I can feel the darkness in your words and recognize it. Much love, beautiful Brenda

Your darkness and light rises and falls like an ocean moving across the space of a life recalibrating to balance.

Hades inspired a hell of a poem, dear Crim!
"baptize me into hell" > my favorite line, only you can right this :-)
Love, Duende

'bathed in the blood of the River Styx
baptize me into hell
gaze at me with dragon eyes '
A fine work of art, Crim;
the darkness never shone so brightly...
