Alone in the dark I sit
cobwebs and spiders at my knees
along this fiery path
shall I plunder in my own hell,
I fight with vengeance and rage
a bull tattering the red cloak,
with not I sit, but stand two feet
hold me tall,then I vow to praise
with lighted torch of glory,
burn the dull razor teeth
that wants to sink deep
and shred your life dreams,
open the blood you warm
in the corners of dark deep love,
for knowing the black rose you are
in beauty to few, because they fear
the black darkness that we love,
they shall not enter with
gossiping ways and
knock you down
with their insecurity game
