Bathing with Bathory-1
Introduction:
in the fog of dream
red pearls apparitioned
into eyes
masking behind
veils of doom
they missioned:
“Elizabeth,
there is prize
found only in this world
the maidens of men
you will know by scent
seek them out
find your fountain
surely hidden within all of them”
and blood drained
from the side of a naked body
into chalice
and she was enthroned
the Empress of all empowerment………

Author's Note
a bit about the morbid tale of Countess Bathory de Esced of the 16thC,
- she is the concept of Cradle Of Filths' album Cruelty And The Beast,
this is not for the weakgutted or those with religious convictions

Damn CI I want to go get into a nice clawfoot tub full of blood right now. Apparently that was the best beauty treatment of the times. Want to join me? :p I don't remember that one from Cradle of Filth, I will be looking that up for sure...
Vampires, witches, beauty, evil, power.... always so awesome...

O yes!
I want to bathe with you in all those themes
and be to you as the animal in the 2nd instalment says
and do to you as it does
it was Cradles' 3rd album released in the late 90s,
however the band and fans complained about the lack of recording quality
so they remistressed it recently in 2019

BluV im totally blown away!
– what a great honour it must have been to be touring and actually meeting those awesome bands! and working for them – sounds like you were better than a roadie chick?
You will have to tell me more stories about your experiences, touring days and the festivals, Im very interested, Ive never met anyone closely associated with those kinds of bands
- Im your fan and request an Autograph!.
for a start Ide like to get a list of all the cool bands and musicians you met.....:)
My deathmetal interest kicked off with Slayer, Possessed, and would you believe it – Bathory! back in the early days
