Dusk approaches

Dark and lusty eyes
Look aloft to inexplicable glory.
Skies blue and infinite
In their infallibility, fall to her feet.

“I will not falter to your masochistic amor.
I warned you not to need me.”
She screams and thrashes against the passion
And is thereby quicker consumed.

Tempestuous virtue masquerades royalty.
An untouched canvas shudders off its dues
And sorrow sinks its teeth in.
Unbidden, unwanted, unwelcome and sickening.

“Which of you would pull me out?
Black Widows web consumes me with single-minded ardour
The banshees cry fills the atoms of me
And the sirens song baits me home.”

Her creamy skin pulsates culture
And her full hips sway to worldly cadence
Her guiles are the currency of the magi
She is the soul mate of wickedness and mother of witchery.

“Grave come swift, you have not yet fulfilled your promises.
There is acid within me, provoking the fire I await.
Bring forth your presence, my ending.
Save me from this rapture.”

“This is the frenzy I flee.
Welcome ye glorious Horseman.
For you I will set the table abundant.
You will present me my cornucopia.”

It revolts her, the sour taste on her mind.
Her feet tread not earth
And she has nought
but treacherous trickery to offer

Now comes the dusk to waken her.
The glorious twilight fears his solemn brother.
Untrusty, worthy twilight.
Misty Indigo glow.
All for bewitching the harbingers of the dark night.

Now comes dusk.
His heralds she ignored
Valiant trumpets hailed her unfaithful attention.
They ring now in her head and melancholy she mutters

“Here is the dusk,
the night,
the death
My dark luxury”

    Beautiful!

    Oh what a dark deep and mysterious piece,
    which exudes a mystical passion in the
    backdrop of chaos and insanity.
    Your openning lines were my favorite.

    "Dark and lusty eyes
    Look aloft to inexplicable glory.
    Skies blue and infinite
    In their infallibility, fall to her feet."

    “I will not falter to your masochistic amor.
    I warned you not to need me.”
    She screams and thrashes against the passion
    And is thereby quicker consumed."

    but I thoroughly enjoyed the entire poem.
    Excellent imagery. Very creative my friend

    I like your use of assonance, consonance and epic style within this piece. It highlights and brings forth more to this twisted, yet lovely and dark tale. I enjoyed reading this very much. I hardly ever say this:"I want more"
