Blood Magic

Drip drop pitter patter,
Not even a storm can hide the sound of blood splatter,
Down her leg the drops glide, 
Like the moon chasing after the evening tide, 
Flooding freely without a care,
Out it sneaks from the dragon's lair.

Precious stream with a story to tell,
Promising heaven, delivering hell,
Bathe in moonlight,
Dance in the woods, 
Smear this red on your riding hood.

Bloody countess, Sanguine sensation,
Blessed crimson revive my vocation, 
I invoke your messiness to hearken my rebirth, 
I am now the drop that falls to the earth.
