Poisoned lips
In fragrant breath
Glassy eyes
And frozen smiles
And marks
Of sudden death
Of feelings
And of blunt
Expressiveness
The soul
Is passionless
The heart’s
A bloody mess
The angry mind
Is crying out
Into the nothingness
Of selfish deeds
And selfish creeds
On poisoned lips
Craving trips
Of hushed exile
For kisses on
The demon’s smile
