My Lilith
Lilith came to me in a dream
she said Eden was beautiful
we fell through the abyss
the fury of our flight
kindled the air...
It thundered and lightninged
below us the ocean boiled
birds of prey gathered
she said we were to marry
the mark of Cain upon me...
She kissed with venom on her lips
with roses across her chest
I was in love
like an addict
loves his addiction...
"You may do with me as you like," she said
you have been in bed with whores before
you are free to do as you will
since you like doing it
more than you like what you do...
Summon the dark priest drenched in sin
for my harlot shackled in death
whoredom that plays like an orchestra
as she enticed me to shout
the shrill scream of ******...
The lightning and thunder ceased
she disappeared behind dark mountains
between sky and land
the dusk and dawn
wearing her crown of jagged stars...
She slit the throat of the horizon
as I fell back
into my Merlin sleep
I heard a siren's voice say,
"I am Lilith and you are mine-forever!"
