funeral in carpathia

candelabra snuffed prey - silhouette wedded

nightfall take my hand

seduce me with silky timbred limbs

grant me thy dark command

over the peaks framing tapestries

of thick forest

dusk has filled

with lucifugous kisses enwreathed in mist

creeping like violations from the shadows

to kill

lucretia

is my love in vein

when thy tears bleed sweeter

thank the midsummer rain?

bewinged

infested belfries

toll o'er the sobbing throng

a writhe of lethargic

terrored nudes

whipped and welted neath the barbed windsong. (in saddean paradise

ancestral legacies linger on.)

i am he

the crowned and conquering darkness

satan robed in ecumenical filth

livid bacchus sustained by bridal echelons of sylph

this wintry eve when the snow glistens deep

and sharpened turrets wed the jewelless skies

i shrug off the shroud of preternatural sleep

enbroided by these words malaresia scribed. beauty slept and angels wept
