Retreat Of The Sacred Heart

She slept in ecstasy

In hands that fanned her wildest fantasies

Freed from Christ's frigid regime

And rigid nailsShe was first in church

To lick her lips and self-debased

Each waking second felt like heaven

In the scarlet One's embraceAnd at last, clear memories, aghast

Relinquished their control

All things held dear to the wretched past

Coalesced within her soulMadness crept into her sight

Though her sinful hair

Spoke of nothing to the contrary

Once dulled eyes leaped alive with life

Her piece of broken mirror

Barely recognizedThe worm was turningFor her sat grinning Victoria

Who, no three weeks ago

Was flogged red to euphoria

For her dour love of God

And the ardor of his crowsCold cloisters kept the dead apart

At the Retreat of the Sacred HeartShe stepped in ecstasy

Neath skies that plied her wildest fantasies

Freed into love's reacquainted dream

And sudden galesNight grew sultry late September

A man came from the village

Through the woods

To help with harvest

She was burning like the fields

All her vows lay unfulfilled

His name was Isaac, silent, blessed

A mute whose tongue impressed her latelyBut now red skies darken

The roonks lament

Windswept maelstroms harken

The approach of Lilith's

Nightmare kingdomThe woman in her astral dreams

Became more vivid, livid, obscene

Scatted on the throne of oayx blasphemies

Emanating raw desire

And the surging urge to screamDarkness crept into her face

She stood erect

And spook of riches and their whereabouts

Finding in Isaac the need to place

A hidden Templer necklace

Lest the month run outFor now stormed the vainglorious

In her palace of mass delight

Her power dawned victorious

Victoria the key, her mind unfastened

By flights of morbid fancy

Psychomancy, rites of ancient wrong

Sweet seductions, peaked corruptions

Spiking through impatient songCold cloister kept the dead apart

At The Retreat of the Sacred HeartThe gate to hell was forced apart

At The Retreat of the Sacred Heart
