The tenth circle of hell.A Poem by Darknessmymuse.
Strange. He romanticizes hell.
Almost like he has actually been there. Like the grimm, clad in the darkness of humanity led him to the elevator to hell- At gun point. Coz scythes are old fashioned. And they went up the nine levels. No... Ten. And the tenth circle is hell's best kept secret. The tenth circle is where she rests. Yes. The devil is a SHE. You foolish mundane, Blinded by tales written in your male chauvinistic world, Only a woman can be so brutal yet so fair. She sits at her station, Room sparkling, Despite the layers of debris, Burning flesh, Bloody whips and screams underneath. He looks at her, eyebrows raised, His stony muscles flexing to his rush. And for once, The flames on her skin The flames of human sin The flames to which she cringe, disappear. Replaced by Flames of desire Stronger than hellfire Hot enough to extinguish her wrath. And this time, the red on her skin is her blush, not human blood. Heh. Who says the devil is a man. Who says that hell Is a dark, misty abyss Of tears and suffering and guilt. The weak, so fooled By the light in her eyes that blinds them, they mistake it for darkness. The angel smirks under his breath- In irony. In disbelief. That he found the heaven he spent his existence searching, In the last circle of hell- The Tenth circle. © 2020 Darknessmymuse. |
