Entangled in this knot of writhing snakes
My power of seduction will enthrall you
My feigned innocence will control your lust
I shall be your teacher of the shadows
Eyes not needed to sense your inner ache
Lips for incantations of love to caress you
Darkness will engulf your heart as I sigh
Words are meaningless in My world
This dimension where all creatures are equal
All breathing is for My pleasure alone
Express your wanton desire for Me
Allow My decision to be your forewarning
A night in My arms could be the end
Or the beginning of your meager existence
Make Me feel your craving of My blackness

A poetic journey that explores depths with dominance and commands the reader to focus on the reverberations within the poem whilst the senses are heightened within the write,the reference for sight not needed to know intuitively,the reference to words being meaningless,both compound that levels of sensation and experience are promised within a different plane.Especially liked" all breathing is for my pleasure alone" indeed the gift of stimulating need for deeper breath or of controlling breath,the very nectar of life the oxygen that sustains is a potent and powerfull contol,indeed perhaps the ultimate.

A wonderful dark poem that very cleverly takes its cue from the picture.
Well done.
