Associations with a Goddess
that will break your back,
just a moment as a lover
then she fractures your wisdom;
assassination of veneration,
twitching on a hair-trigger,
in shadows she strokes the dark
as you writhe dry and sun-blistered.
Don’t fall too far into her eyes,
a freezing glance that solidifies
the most strident heartbeat,
becoming the perfect deathnote;
purification on the precipice
before she coaxes it over,
towards a calm that never eases
even the guiltiest pleasures
She smiles with the discomfort
of your indulgences multiplying,
she sighs her grateful, cold sigh
because you’re forever corrupted,
dancing to the song of her own success,
there is one refreshing vision,
the sight of you lying prone
in a pool of her deformed mortality.

Nothing too big, in-depth or personal here, this piece is just a tale of the temptress, living and gaining pleasure only from seducing and corrupting the naive and the pure.
