orgami's Diaryland Diary

horror harlot

I remember ribbon dream
streamers falling like
cheap lightning
from the faulty seam

how you awoke me
locked in a scream

the frozen parlour
dark it seemed
lit by a black mooon
and wasted with the
obscurity manueavre
mauve and tinted
with the stain of lost
yesterday

how it was
we poured out our
efforts
in our dirge love
catapault strut
slinging arrows
and rocks at the
effigies of ache

burning letters
by the lake
and all that
spake

nought fraught
with sought
visions frosted
in the mirror
where you stood
and stared
until I couldnt
remember you
anymore
and you were
anew
stranger how we
met

yes how we met
and kept our chance
the numbers bet
staid
and laid
you said

"The house always wins"
with your best vintage grin
and I followed you

yes I followed you through
the hall to the door
where we listened never
more......
