Dusk and Her Embrace

When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake

And the mists steal in with ease

Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes

In adoration of the moon and thee

They call as I to theeAnd I will come, as if in dream

My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen

Of vengeful, ancient breed

Gilded with the pelts of many enemiesErishkigal, raven-haired

Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair

I can taste thy scent by candlelight

Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lairAppease the beast on spattered sheets

Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps

Nocternity, she shall come for meA black velvet painting sprung to elegant life

Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night

And I have ridden from the westerning lightTo expend my lust, tear away the funereal dress

Know that I will escape from my death

Surrendered to the splendor of her sharpened caressLo, the pale moonlight

Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline

Of mist and moth and the hunger inside

Kisses took to fever and the fever, demiseThrough twilight, darkness and moon rise

My scarlet tears will run

As stolen blood and whispered love

Of fantasies undoneCountess swathed in ebony

And snow-white balletic grace

Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish

For lust and her disgraceDusk and her embraceWe shall flit through the shadows

Like a dream of wolves in the snow

(Were)

Under deadly nightshade

Still warmed with the kill's afterglowBeneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me

(Beneath the stars taste the death in me)

Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss

To sever thin mortalityElizabeth, my heart is thine

Thy fragrant words warm within like wineLet me come to thee

With eyes like Asphodel

Moon-glancing, loose desires free

To writhe under my spellEreshkigal, raven-haired

Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair

I know thy scent by candlelight

Immortal flesh I yearn to shareAppease the beast on spattered sheets

Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps

Nocternity, she shall come for meUnfurl thy limbs breathless succubus

How the full embosomed fog

Imparts the night to us
