Art of Agony

Art of Agony

A Poem by Drusilla

 

She makes art of agony


Lies in cold drifts of isolation


Arms drawing wings in the snow


Legs opening


Legs closing


Creating angelic garments beneath her


And the white melts against blacken pain


She makes art of self sacrifice


Piles bramble at her feet


And with a sulfuric smile


Strikes a match


Lights the fuse


Just to feel herself go off


She makes art of war


Sharpens her rapier tongue


And with it sculpts stone hearts


Licks blood from her lip


Hangs scalps from her hip


Takes comfort in the chill


Pleasure in the kill


And says she loves you still


Before she slips back inside his pocket
