She is a dark handmaiden of destruction;
The final ruin of many a poor fool
Who has failed to recognize his abduction;
Or that her pale beauty hides a heart so cruel.
They’re disposable pawns of her seduction.
All succumb in her fetid, blasphemous pool
Her heart is atrophied by debauchery
And by taking glee in other’s misery.
Tantalized by the gentle swell of her breasts,
They’re easily blinded by rampant passion.
Her carnal poses puff up their scrawny chests
The lure of revealing gothic fashion
Rests in alcohol addled brains and infests.
She has shown an utter lack of compassion
As she has consumed each one, body and soul –
The premium charged as a sexual toll.
They are enticed with nipples of ruby red
That tease and taunt their chapped lascivious lips.
Innocent wolves follow her to her cold bed
Fully aroused as she rolls curvaceous hips.
The handcuffs snap shut; there’s still no sense of dread.
Then a look of shock as the knife flails and rips.
She is a savage woman, one who’s gone berserk
Panting heavily; the moon seeps through the murk.
Each body is casually contributed
To a fetid cesspool or a heap of trash
Not a single death sentence is commuted;
The feral harlot removes the folding cash.
The wolves’ rancid wealth is redistributed;
Some spent on finery, some placed in her cache.
A vulpine smile graces her cold, hard face
Soon another lecher will take this one’s place.

Thank you very much for reading and commenting on the poem. Personally I love the Ottava Rima form. However, it is complex and I rarely use it. I am glad you enjoyed it. I will be sweeping up the confetti now.

Mind Tingling!
My favorite part:
They are enticed with nipples of ruby red
That tease and taunt their chapped lascivious lips.
Innocent wolves follow her to her cold bed
Fully aroused as she rolls curvaceous hips.
This has to be the vilest woman ever! The imagery, flow were spot on! I used a dictionary - you taught me alot with this one.

Thank you for reading and commenting. I am glad you enjoyed the poem. I kinda went on and on, but once I got into the rhythm of the Ottava Rima form it just kind of took off. It was a very dark poem.

A breath takingly eloquent piece,
No poem i have read before have left me speechless, and this one did , I adore your vocabulary
I have to say these are my favorite Verses
ll succumb in her fetid, blasphemous pool
Her heart is atrophied by debauchery
And by taking glee in other’s misery.
Thank you my Dear for this magnificent entry
and I wish you all the best on my contest
