Asked for a real gift from above
wrapped in red from head to toe with love
She belief, it can't be wrong
this is where I belong
impiety from a little dove

With tendencies towards modes abhorrent, I operate
Hone deterrence to deserved carnal pleasure consolidate
Intentional extension of potential paths provoke
Libidinous grasping of bliss platter's swift revoke
Elysium eviction accepts anguish for apple crisp taste
Impaired paradise jags a vagabond, journey's ardour
Want stimulates striving, stiff splinter of suffered strappado
Harvest achieved after toil has farmer famished
Indebted unto a sliding spiral, subsided vanquish
Sacrilege accounts for devious mortals' imminent waste
Pain prescribed for impiety wraps breath in challenge
Embarrassed to decay, by greedy big ego enchanted
Rid of Eden's pardon, shield of shame, always disgraced

Unknown to him,
I watched from the shadows of
rocks far below, he,
dancing like a scarecrow atop the
cliff edge, limbs at unnatural
angles, broad grin of
chiseled teeth gleaming in the wan light
of the moon, looking up to spit
blood at its face,
making sadistic biting gestures,
almost as if he could taste
the pale blue beams ... or nip
them off, thus.
Maybe he could, this
Demon of Lies, for darkest magic
was his faith and forte,
most any miracle, his, tho' cursed
as payment to never take
his own form, wearing, instead,
the sinews of those who
sold their souls for desire, deceit …
yes, I watched intently as he
spun his grotesque jig,
cackling with impiety, for a NEW flesh
hung loose upon his skeleton,
and its face ... was my own.

Skin deep
Sharon Maria Moemise
My God-given crown of femininity is my nappy hair
My skin in its freckled golden-brown glory belongs to me
If perfection is what you're looking for, then let’s be fair
Look in the mirror and decide who you really want to be
My rounded thighs bear witness to life's great gifts
My ample bosom attests to my absolute femininity
If the hourglass figure is on your current wish-list
Then my sagging backside and breasts are an impiety
I walk with my shoulders straight and my head held high
Every move makes my breasts jiggle and my backside sway
Every mark on my body bears testimony to the reason why
my beauty lies not in how I look nor in what anyone has to say
My worth is not measured by smooth skin and rosy cheeks
My gender no justification for being struck by anyone's fist
I'm a woman who brought forth man and was left with silver streaks
My worth is in loving myself, in deciding to finally put myself first.

The darkness around the heart surges
Engulfing the brightness and then belches,
Twisting the facelines in its wake
And narrowing the mind on its take.
Melancholy at me winks;
For the sadness on my heart blinks
Depriving the mind of its right
And the eyes surrenders without a fight.
The melody now fails to entice the mind.
For my willpower isn't mine.
Such is me in entirety
When she at me rants with impiety.

Storms came to flood the perversion of careless claims,
The silent witness seated in his chair with bowed head,
Not a word is to be spoken, not an iota of acknowledgement to be offered,
Despise the betrayal, proclaim the abomination,
Never repeat the nonsense, the heat,
Do not greet nor comfort again, stand up as in a presbytery,
Finalise the prayer to yourself, look up and walk away.
Deus, in adiutorium!
My little soubrette, clever and pert,
The Waterloo affair brought crossed swords
And released a horde of travesty in the sward,
A creation of a new Lady D’Arbanville cannot avert
The glare into the lunacy of impiety that is stripped bare!
Oh I swear, I swear!
The tug has suddenly stopped, the ball is being dropped,
All everlasting reminiscences in a second, forever, - popped.

I am a certian type of variety..
Steadfast conceptualized impiety..
Aware of nonchalantly..
Best not to a malady.
Shallow is the roots of ryegrass.
Slow is the fermented yeast mash.

Lives in my homeland
He fights not the enemy,
but himself in the mirror.
The mirror eternally strong,
will never break into pieces
One day Spartan boy will tire,
and collapse due to fatigue.

Demoness ...
Tread soft near me, pray thee ...
tread light and soft ... shall I yet awaken
to the warmth of your hellfire?
I am your infernal progeny,
birthed of you and Heaven ... I have been
torn with your ire ...
I have been rent and
burned by the cold flames of your
skin on mine ...
Dare you mix such immaculate flesh
with this gypsy, forsaken? I am thrall, with but
a taste of your dark nectar.
Oh, to pierce you with the keen blade of
truth, to slay your hot impiety, kill you with love, and
sate the horrid heart's hunger.
We swim the moonlight and
each other ... bare and bold, torn and told of
sacred secrets gained in treason.
Let that lie be our salvation ...
we rise in desire - we soar erotic, prurient,
woven, interlaced ...
One.

You aren't,
What you look;
You aren't,
The body you have;
You are what,
Others take you,
When you show up,
Yourself to them;
You are the persona,
Show up when you behave;
Others accept, reject,
'Yes' to your
Serenity and love;
'No' to impiety and severity;
They verify you,
"Who you are";

I held down my head in obscurity disdain and rejected
I stand alone, alone
Oppression has been my outcry, my cry
Days of merciless labour, injustice has become
my pain, my pain
Days of suffering trigger my thoughts to retreat beneath
As the dread of injustice infiltrate this place, this place
The sting of cruelty penetrates my brain, my brain
And impiety of those who punished with pain remain
unmoved by their callous game
Oppression inflicted is the epitome of evil
Mingled with the smell of death I am afflicted
These shackles of bondage torments my brain
Creating intimidation relentlessly unbearable
I questioned this exploit, why is this my plight
This is not right, this is not right
Why am I denied of my rights, for a fair fight
In spite of the aggravate
It’s not too late to disintegrate these chains
of bondage that was meant to intimidate

The agent of evil, the enemy of humanity
Who spreads discord and hatred; extreme
Who does not tolerate peace and harmony
With ignorance and bigotry as his minions
Is busy ever to create chaos and commotion.
Let us listen to the cry of distress of humanity
And all cases of agony of the noble and simple
Let all the people come together to fight the evil
With unrelenting opposition; a decisive crusade
Against the impiety and uphold eternal virtues.

~DAMAGED~
TAUNTING OF YOUR SADIST WHISPERS, ECHO IN MY HEAD
CONSTANTLY REMINDING ME, OF YOUR DESECRATION INFUSED
MY SELF~ESTEEM RENDERED UNTO ME, IN RATIONS FOR OBEDIENCE
NUMBLY, I ENVISIONED A CHANGE...THAT WOULD NEVER COME
WHELPS 'PON MY SOUL, DEEPER THAN THOSE MY SKIN
YOUR MANIACAL BARRAGES, VIRTIGUOUSLY PERVADE MY SLUMBER
FOR WANT OF MY TEARS, YOU...CAUSED MY RETREAT OF LIFE'S LIVING
THOUGH I STILL TRY TO CLEAVE, FOR WANT OF AN ENDING MORE ELATIVE
FOR ALL TREASURE OF TH' EARTH, I WOULD NOT SUFFER YE 'GAIN
I USED TO BELIEVE TH' PAST, WOULD NOT DETERMINE MY TOMORROWS
BUT JADED I'VE BECOME, MY TRUST NOW OPPRESSED IN CONTEMPT
FOR THAT WHICH DIDN'T KILL ME, YOU...MADE ME HUNGER
BELITTLED N' BROKEN, I NOW STAND ALONE...
MY EMPATHY FOR YOUR NEXT PREY, I OFFER AS SACRIFICE FOR YOUR DEMISE
WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF, AMONGST TH' DEMONS OF YOUR IMPIETY...
FOR AS LONG AS I'M ALLOWED, I WILL SMILE INTO YOUR EYES...
...DAMAGED

Shadows sneak and confuse confidence behind me.
Mistakes made in mirrored reflection remind me.
Time does pay a toll to my sad, unhappy soul,
with borrowed currency—from someone, confines me.
In the search for immortality, I am lost,
but for certain I do know that death will find me.
I can’t stand on rocks cast by those who have not sinned.
Impiety preaching piety reminds me.
Seek and find questions to answers, some things need change.
The choice to always settle will never bind me.
Maybe Michael, hope isn’t just mere happenstance,
but part of predestined plan that entwines me.
