    Dark Inspiration

    Your pulse beats fierce

    Beneath my hands

    It excites me

    Inspires me

     

    I can make it stop

    Cease

    I can let it be

    Live

     

    I can taste your fear

    Upon my tongue

    Sweet

    Delicious

     

    I see your pleading eyes

    Through clouded veils

    Please

    Please

     

    I feel your jagged nails

    Pierce my naked flesh

    Painful

    So very painful

     

    Confused by your assault

    My strength falters

    Enough

    Just enough

    Your fear recedes

    And hope begins to shine

    Slightly

    Just slightly

     

    You think you’ve won

    Distracted me

    Beaten me

     

    You think I’ll let you live

    Prevail

    Remain

     

    So I smile

    Wickedly

    So terrifyingly wicked

     

    Then I tighten my grip

     

    Until I feel the last beat

    Of your frantic heart

    Slowly

    Slowly

    Fade away

     

    To nothing.

    Aggressive, vivid, but it also draws one to be the pray. I like it.

    the darkness hides in all of us; you see to squeeze the life from you; or maybe me. to smile the wicked smile, as if a dare. to peer thru lifeless eyes; forever stare. ~ ~to feel the last life breath, thru tight clenched fist ~ ~swirling from grey lips, like steam, or mist ~ ~ive lived in shadows; from the very hub ~ ~with names like beast; demon; even un-sub. _______________________________________ i shall enjoy your writing many more times your dark wit, your tasty words, your rhymes. forever.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
