Hymn of Dangerous Devotion

i don’t want to believe her,

yet

i crave her poison

sweet sweet

poison.

teeth sink-

into my lips

blood gushes-

to the surface-

immobilized

in her gaze.

her talons rake

my skull-

gods were warned

to flee:

her quarry

pinned

gasping

for her

she moans

her verse

shrouded

in silver mist

ropes strung high

and

low-

a huntress

stalking

& i

in her arrows
