Word of the Day Challenge #66-Untitled Poem

Velvet flashes

satin slips

caress over broken skin

softened with lotions

fragranced with sandalwood 

desired by man

owned by one party.

Shadow smiles 

under lit with despair

glide down the stairway

fairy tale goddess

come here.

Innocence

brokered

sold

handed down

one to the next

rage smolders

soldered red

chocked down with bitter bliss.

Hallowed eyes

grim in death

locked on target

slither in.

Come closer

fetid breath

upon bent neck

death’s close kiss

cold tongue run down

wormwood

bite back horrified shrieks.

Lips streaked

blood red

glide upon the floor

hand to hand

zest for life

reanimated

if only for awhile.
