Subdued & Swallowed
by Lady Hecate LunaFyre aka GypsyWitchy
Age Group: Adult
Those wicked still mirrors.
Dreams ...
E'er poised upon the wretched heart,
left mad by this new season
of laughter and contempt.
Oh what beautiful and angry gods
adorn the charnel house
Subdued and swallowed
Painfully ...
Devoured by this grim art,
the taut and bleak canvas of
perpetual renewal ...
Summer brought to me an idiot's terrifying
laughter.
Nearer the outer-most and faintest rings of Saturn
How they loved her with every cruelty they possessed.
They stalked, and thus provoked, these imperfections
to destroy their own soul's misery
Fury strikes like lightning
Such sacred fires
rise and swarm
in a feverish torments,
until we all had become
like enemies to one another
I have always punished my lovers" she mused.
For being so blind, for being so disadvantaged ...
For being so depraved. There was always that crack in
the mirror that would keep me separate, and let me
divide myself from those distorted images that they
would try to crawl inside ... They left me infected
with everything they ever wanted, until we both had
nothing left.
Everyday, I had to free myself
from my heart's compulsion,
to become another's possession;
Until I grew harsh and cruel,
rebelled and turned against
my own fleshy cells.
An obdurate aching that
I pounded and clawed
and raged against ...
It laughed at me wildly,
when I became weak;
and taunted me with
every passion I still possessed ...
Until I couldn't really feel
anything anymore.
"How often have I tried to
reconcile my desires with my sufferings" ...
The withering heart was resilient,
to course bile for blood,
mercurial manna that tasted warm
in my mouth
but left the spirit cold and numb.
She fled toward the dark harbour
of fixed stars
to watch the tall ships pass this
safer shore
Subdued and swallowed, into the unknown ...
Painfully ...
Devoured by this grim new art
disappearing into the bleak canvas of
perpetual renewal ...
Oh, how we do love to loathe ourselves
within those wicked still mirrors
Dreams ...
E'er poised upon the wretched heart
left mad by this new season
of laughter and contempt
Oh what beautiful and angry gods
we become
to adorn the charnel house
"Spring brought to me an idiot's terrifying
laughter."
Author's Notes: A mirrored view of negativity & how ironic and cynical the world can be when trapped in the surface of your own mirrors. How we sometimes see ourseles as the person we are not. How negativity can make us view ourselves in a dark shade of unrealism.
