Reaper

Thy say the Grim Reaper is this tall dark shrouded creature with a scythe  
but they’re wrong  
I’ve seen the Reaper,  
seen the Raven fine hair, the skin of milk and dark angel wings.  
I’ve seen the arms, dark, infected, and cracked  
the nails of black  
and the crown of fire that's not a halo.
 
Yes, I’ve seen the naked body Reaper,  
seen this dark seraphim watching me in the corners of my room,  
lurking hungrily in the shadows  
watching me with absent pearls for eyes  
waiting like a ghoul to steal my soul  
each time I’ve sliced my wrists  
 
Yes, I've seen the Death Dealer bitch
and her sinister wicked smile
far too many damn times.
