Dearest infested, do you too reminisce on that fated night, When the beauty of your unstitched gaps in that storm’s occasional light Shone brighter than my heart As I held your severed hand in marriage. Recall my fingers slipping under those sheets Aching to pull you closer to me, So close, I could feel in between your skin and bone For me to caress your blackened inner soul. No other will be capable of feeling the softness of your carcass, Melted on my fingertips, ever so slightly crawling with goosebumps From the maggots that shift in your decaying tissue, Eating away at the core of your sweet bloated insides. On that very bed, you hosted life beyond your bug-infested corpse, Your unsaturated beauty animating a love as equal to mine When lightning struck the tower’s wires And pierced my heart with cupid's bow. Oh how that shock stung my nerves! Manipulating my madman mind into a loving machine, One that could only want for your rotting embrace, Which leaves the scent of death in every corner of my brain. Did you notice the way the dark of the room hugged you so modestly, As if you were already his? And then you held out a cold hand towards me Calling for me to put my ring on your delicate finger. I remember your instantaneous joy, Curiosity twinkling in your lifeless eyes, Blushing from a heart pumping spoiled blood through your frozen veins, And that smile, only a creature inhuman could smile so divine. You, my sweet, have captured me in your rusted fingertips And how you carry yourself across the bleeding carpet, Dragging your decaying remains into my arms, Making me unable to withstand being without your infected kiss How irresistible you are before me Adorned in white sheets, draped across your discolored chest, Dried blood blanketing the edges of your lips, A beauty that’ll never age, forever preserved by death himself! Devour me now, my love! Take me to the grave you plan to reside So that I may lay next to you Six feet under our wedlock.

They met on the equinox like spirits out of an ancient myth, To paint the leaves gold and kiss the summer goodbye. For a brief moment, everything did turn shiny and new, solid. But Frost came, reminding that Nothing Gold Can Stay And they grew brown and dry. Winter went by, Silent and haunting like a ghost: White sheets thrown on a body made of fire to suffocate the flame. They met again for a pink and a red moon, In some mystical manner once more, To break and wreak havoc And divide. The storm drowned Percy on the coasts of Italy, 'heart of hearts' written on the stone. They sent his to Mary in England, Its resting place a dusty drawer for years. At least he didn't turn around to see her, She didn't disappear.

COR CORDIVM
"*It was a dreary night of November That I beheld the accomplished of my toils Remember that I am thy creature I ought to be thy adam But I am rather the fallen angel that now drivest enjoy for no misdeed everywhere I see bliss from which from which from which I alone, am irrevocably excluded I was benevolent and good misery made me a fiend make me happy and I, again shall be virtuous but soon he cried I shall die and what I now feel be no longer felt soon, these burning miseries will be extinct I shall ascend fume up higher triumphantly and exalt in the agony of the torturing flames my spirit will sleep in peace for if it thinks It will  not surely think thus Farewell.*"

"I shall die"
Dream had a glass of wine with me, Faltered through my reality, Disrupted my slumber, Caressed my wandering thoughts He picked a book, old faded cover, He turned a musty yellowish page, Picked out a line and read, "You, my own creator,abhor me. What hope do I have? Shall I not hate those who hate me? Shall I not lash out at those who wish me ill? You accuse me of the worst, yet do not yourself shrink, from inducing far greater violence on me!" I woke up. The tale of the lonely monster lay next to me. The pages were turned but I had turned too. I need to love my creations. I am a creator of my own. I can be a classic tale after all.
