Devilish Lament

(⅙) A moonlight path, dappled in dew, blades ripping at her soles;
Seeking sweet serenity among a copse of trees.
She spies a branch reaching low, entranced,
By its twisted promise.

(2/6) A silver tongue, forked and wicked, slipping pledges in her ear;
An oath he gives to the maiden.
Delighted to generously provide what she’s hunting,
Eager to see her wanting.

(3/6) Forevermore he swears so reverently.
Accepts his fruit, ripe and ready, does she.
Tearing skin, crunching flesh, its blood drips down her chin.
He takes her then,
His silly, sweet Persephone.

(4/6) Little does he know,
Merely that this is his dream,
In which she feasts on his blackened soul.
More than even a demon such as he can swallow,
Hades has irrevocably taken.

(⅚) So it goes that the forbidden fruit has never tasted as rotten.
That with a kiss they are fated to be;
Eternally mated,
Infinitely unsatiated.

(6/6) Inimitable and absolute they are,
The unanswered pleas and unheard prayers.
Haunting, searching, starving, they stay,
Beneath an accursed orchard of their wretched machinations.
