Art of AgonyA Poem by DrusillaShe 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 © 2009 Drusilla |
