Monster

MONSTER

 

Upon this cursed plot of land

Concealed by magnificant green and tans

Not only greens and tans be noteable

Reflected by Heavens

Violets and crimson exposable

 

Upon this envious plot of land

Confused by exuberant greens and tans

Not only in color and close proximity

The forest knowned for insensitivity

 

To colors more fare as my Princess' attair

The purity of silver

No emeralds conspire

 

The hue of greens competes with no others

Blotting out the sunlight when viewed from asunder

The branches of pines give perspective that lack

When viewed from the hillside

Remarked, "the Valley of Black"

 

Upon this retched plot of land

More nephareous content is schemed and planned

The color of Darkness indeed has relevance

Appears life in shadow

The Countess of elegance

 

Upon this vomitous plot of land

Where viciousness walks and talks of sand

The sand of time and castles or tales

The last of her kind my princess unveils

 

In a lovers' dream

In the sunlight hours

The monster sleeps

In a cold, gray tower

And across the sea

Past a lush, dense forest

Immortals scheme

For the hearts of others

 

And your my knight on a colt, white steed

And it ain't right to make me bleed

 

And its Madness and Love and things you can't put your finger on

And its Sunsets and Blood and maybe we just don't feel enough

But I know you

 

Imprisoned by vulgar streams of thought

My lady of chains and rings forgot

A mortal so meek, so timid in demeneor

Might do himself harm before tending the Reaper

 

Imprisoned by virtually identical desire

Greater only in intensity of funeral pyres

My moments of hours to vanish in whimper

Gentle she be in neither praise or temper

 

In a lovers' dream

With hearts like flowers

You fall on me

In a clear sunshower

And I beg you please

To be my lover

And to think of me

And no one other

 

Cause I'm your knight but I can't sleep

And it ain't right to make me bleed


And its Madness and Love and things you can't put your finger on

And its Sunsets and Blood and maybe we just don't feel enough

But I know you

 

Inprisoned by words

For words are weighted

As actions condemned

The spirit so baited

 

Until the monent so brief, yet mild

Reveal a relic from forced exile

 

With a cross of steel

From an ancient power

The monster pleads

While his minions cower

And across the sea

Past a lush, dense forest

The Angels sing

In a joyful chorus

 

Cause your my knight so I set you free

So close your eyes and dream of me

 

And its Madness and Love and things you can't put your finger on

And its Sunsets and Blood and maybe we just don't feel enough

But I know you

 

Upon this blessed plot of land

The bleakest of heart of greens and tan

Embarked on a journey without destination

As sunlight and shadow congress in conflation

 

Upon this blessed plot of land

The Valley of Black and green and tan

Relinquish thier forms to seek the infinite

Horizons above the limitless limits

 

And its Madness and Love and things you can't put your finger on

And its Sunsets and Blood and maybe we just don't feel enough

Can I hold you

 

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The following is a twist on my favorite novel by Bram Stoker

Its premise, an old one -- The most beautiful thing I'd ever seen and the insanity that ensued

Its a mixture of song and poem
