Destruction, As Kali Walks Upon Earthen Grounds
Destruction, As Kali Walks Upon Earthen Grounds
Goddess of Destruction that teams with the Lord of Lusts
As wrathful winds bequeath savage ravaging gusts
Hades match, that has destroyed many a soul
World and darkness combine to take heavy tolls
Entity that perhaps beset Edgar Allan Poe
Kali takes no prisoners- death is achieved goal.
Dark that ever waits for exactly the right time
To destroy one lover's truth is truly a crime
Its great allure 'tis but beauty's enticing trap
Wherein passion's darkest of powers take no nap
As sadness turns into villainous mortal hate
Delivery is sent to wicked hands of fate!
She that offered slices of her false-set pies
Torn rainbows from yesterday's molten weeping skies
Sensual traps, dire for innocent likes of thee
Frosted darkness dancing with malevolent glee
There combing her thick-flowing, radiant red mane
Sexy vixen, addicted to others' deep pain.
With the dripping red, its splattered blood-cast spots
Watching this malevolent world, its seething rots
Madness and venom within her bulging red veins
Laughing at folly of mankind's sad earthen gains
From the invisible, her immense powers flow
In savage consuming fires- vengeance that glows!
In her night, no moon illuminates mother earth
No golden beauty encompasses mortal birth
Such darkness only vicious death therein awaits
Uncaring blacken hands of world's ravenous Fates
Alas! Mankind to her charms eagerly succumbs
Blinded by temptations, hungry for even crumbs.
Led by basic desires, poison in mortal blood
A vessel stranded, awaiting dark's raging floods
Damnation cruising this wicked world over
Hideousness disguised as fields of clover
Master veil, painted to cover destruction wrought
Betwixt birth and death weak mortal souls are thus caught!
