Manticore
Write a story. Any story.But let it have dragons...
O Gods of warIn the jungle corridorI feel your haughty presence feasting the Manticore
She stalks the shadows, burningThe smoke is thick and reaks of bloodHer hunger an eternal yearning
Tantric, necromantic, a wank fantasy of faithShe religiously feedsA feverous all man-eaterIn the trees I see her eyes like slithering she of snakesMonstrous this chimeraIn her beautiful anger
Screaming from the pulpitDamnation's oratoryShe is the whispering poisoned dartAnd the breath of Armageddon all aroundThe embodiment of evil in a body full of rapturesAnthropophagous
Manticora
Press the silent violin of frisson over horrorIn my forced handSphinx will sing her song and coloured in lullabiesDeath endorsed invades our lands
Gigantic, pyromanticA beast of naked flamePanting blackened masses from her opulent GodheadIll-barbed are those tongues spread wings eclipse her frameAnd in her deep crevasses Kundalini vents unfed
In darknessHer fastness threshed with fleshing teethShe comes to masticate you whole
She is the bane of mothersGrand leveller of Maa Kali's Mardi GrasWhat man would damn the world to summon her?
Be stillPray silence lest she stoops to conquer
The perverse acid queenTen thousand pillars in her heartUphold a cracked palace of frozen killersAnd the mirror in her soulPolished black for scrying nightmaresBubbles with a lustThat yearns to burn again
Razor backed, she attacksEmpire's battle catA creature of the white devil's ruleMythical and mysticalProvinces will recall the swarm of refugees from her pall
Mimicking victimsWith a voice of the choicest deadpanned in painAwful claws hold rapport with the skins of mankind
She is the whispering poisoned dartAnd the breath of Armageddon all aroundThe embodiment of evil in a valley full of raptors
A lick of fire on her lips as silent as a will o wispShe comes amongst you all, tigressiveBlazing in her pride hellraising horrors from the dark-side...
