CAMELOT FANTASIES

Molten heat flowing
Melting in masculine arms
All consuming flame

Calling nine one one
Demonic shadows cavort
Fear consumes my mind

#haiku
#noir
...

Macabre shapes dance
Throw malevolent shadows
Yet I will be strong

#haiku
...

Golden memories of sunrise in your arms
Wrapped so tight and close against harm
We walked the paths of knowledge once again
Pausing in our reminiscences of old friends
A once parched dying desert of hope
Now coming alive as horizons widen in scope

Spontaneous combustion without hesitation
Exploding our world in fiery conflagration

#hangtenstories
...

Macabre ghosts in cruel mockery
Haunt the chaotic caverns of my mind
Echoing chambers so dark and deep
Home to demonic creatures that creep
Pray for my soul teetering upon the edge
The abyss does beckon beyond the ledge

Darkness returns
Blessed shroud
A living death
Some call it
Shielded haven
I name it
Those prying eyes
Cruel and mocking
Always there
Hateful and deceiving
Follow the signs
Right to the end
‘Tis the witching season
My carnival friends

Illusionary
Mesmerising mystery
Dazzle my spirits

The city comes so alive at #night
She breathes and turns to the driving beat
Of a million hearts dancing in unison
To the glittering beauty of neon lights

...

Taken for a ride
Emotional carnival
Let the crazy out

#haiku
...

By the light of a thousand dancing candles
Flickering islands aglow in the midnight gloom
Shall we pray for the souls still locked in combat
With demons that seep from the Pit of Doom

Violent delights
#murderous hearts turn bloody
Painting in crimson

Oblivion falls
Shadows do walk with spirits
Witching hour arrives

In finding myself
I lost sight of you

Roll up
Roll up
Come one
Come all
Step right up
See the mad
Carnival
Take a spin
A little wild ride
Scream yourself hoarse
As you lose your mind
Ghouls are waiting
Mist and shadows
Macabre enticements
To steal your soul

Guilty switch tripped
Legally ripped to shreds
Judicial murder

He wanted my #blood
Promised everlasting life
Alas not for me...

Blood moon rising
Comets blaze the sky
Such demonic beauty
In the heavens tonight

Screams shatter
The fiery night
Shadows loom
And pass from sight

A satanic resurrection
The rituals commence
Sacrifices are made
From Hell are they sent

Liquid pooling
A molten glow
Every word you say
Every single look
Draws me closer
Binds me deeper
You’re in my blood
Sunk right to the core
Setting me ablaze
Sensations aflame
Intensity builds
No longer a game
Taste the wonder
Of you on my tongue
The climax near
Heat of the sun❤️
...

Darkness consumes
What hides away
Silence a shroud
Unto the grave

Bury my heart
In an unmarked pit
I have no need
I can live without it

Forever my love
Eternity in a vow
Two souls entwined

Virtuous patience
‘Til the dying of the day
I shall wait for you

A grisly blood trail, fresh and still glistening in the moonlight, led deeper into the waiting forest.  The disturbing scene of slaughter amidst body parts scattered around betrayed a mind divorced from all humanity.  The rules had now changed.
...

Do they walk amongst us, hidden in plain sight?  Sociopathic tendencies reined in too tight until, with so many choices, they snap and bite.  The hunter unleashed violently upon the unheeding prey.  Shoot to kill never seemed so good.

...

Blood curdling screams shatter the night, yet the forest remains still in the chill moonlight.  The hunters close in, the blood trail so clear, fingers on the triggers, death is so near.  The undergrowth shivers and shakes as strange noises erupt...

#SlamWords #28thEdition R3
...

Bloody furrows carved by a cruel hand taking violent delight in the torturous branding of his unleashed lust upon the quivering innocent flesh.  Nicks and cuts are but a tantalising starter before the main course of slaughter begins...

#SlamWords #28thEdition - R7
...

Courage drains as swiftly as blood, the ragged remains of a man nailed to a tree holding my horrified gaze.  Choking down bile, the impaled cruelty chilled my marrow to eternal silence. There were no lines to be drawn anymore.  The rules had changed.

#SlamWords #28thEdition - R8
...

Shadows prowl in shifting melancholy the desecrated graveyard forgotten by all.  In gory satanic benediction written on the headstones are the demonic names to raise the dead, risen this night to the howling cacophony of banshee screams ...

#SlamWords #28thEdition R4
...

Hollow footsteps on quiet cobbles echo down blind alleys where only death leads.  He walks alone, an empty soul, who life has forgotten and so has the world.  Yet unease is his companion this foggy night unable to shift this quiet sense of dread...

#SlamWords #28thEdition R5
...

Oh that wicked hangman and his cruel gallows humour, how the rope of silver burns deep, the final twist in the deathly dance that does not end.  A hangman’s skills can keep a man balanced betwixt life and death, how much harsher for a werewolf...

#SlamWords #28thEdition - R6
...

Time was running out, sands from a glass, the moon was waning and fast. With screams fading to whimpers, we began to run, frayed nerves or not, we had to find whatever was out there, feasting on flesh with dubious relish...

#SlamWords #28thEdition - R9
...

A whole different level of evil had entered our world, stalking the night with a malevolent smile. Don’t fear the reaper, once my favourite song echoes in my mind as I take the steps towards the chill finality of death that welcomes me with open arms

All I ask from you
Forget-me-nots on my grave
I’ll not forget you

#haiku
...

Delicious tempo
Seducing salaciousness
Wicked temptation

#haiku
#haikulust
...

the dawn reveals a body wracked by night terrors, contorted insanely upon a bed now reduced to splinters, the fever dream a fiery reality of branding scars still raw upon his shrunken flesh...

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R1
...

In crimson hand prints did she mark her territory, designing demonic destruction in artistic transfusion. Splatter and dripping gore in trailing ribbons, her damned scrawled message one for watching eyes not of this world...

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R2
...

A cold wind blows, cutting and sharp, through skyscraper canyons this night. Broken windows reflecting the shattered neon soul of a city rotten to the core as shadows skulk and shift, leaving footprints of dust from their recent graves behind.

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R3
...

Retching cops was his first clue, the gagging stench his second. A thick miasma of putrefying flesh hung thick in the still air. Gagged and dragged, the thing once a man, lay feet from the open grave,  head twisted back as if craving his bed...

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R4
...

Slamming into brick, damn! Another dead end.  Lungs burning for air, he turned to face the night. Cornered like a rat, he’d not die on his knees! Stalked for fun with no way out, he’d take his killer down with him. Steps echoed, purposeful...

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R5
...

This ravenous hunger that never abates tortures and mutates with each passing minute, no matter the choice of parts I feast upon it’s never enough for the hungering beast within. With a flash of teeth, I rip and rend my meal, thirsting for blood
#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R6
...

The middle of nowhere one Winter’s night, called to the crossroads with no one in sight. Feeling exposed out here on my own, my skin crawls. The isolation an exquisite torture for a city boy more used to bars and clubs than farm and scrub.

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R7
...

Something stirs, swaying the crops, the scrape of Earth loud in the night  and raucous ravens suddenly take to flight, croaking their vengeance in black clouds above scarecrows horrifically  marching in shambling battalions toward the sleepers

#SlamWords #28thEdition #encore R8
...

As Saints hold their breath, a terrible certainty crystallises within fearful hearts that this ominous atmosphere suffocating the air is but the beginning of a bone-cracking finale of Biblical  proportion orchestrated by the Devil himself.

Dead to rights, Bob, I’m tellin’ ya *crouching beside the desecrated corpse* the Coroner buried this one last year *drawled words brought to a crashing halt as the corpse reached to grab his throat croaking* nothing left to lose then

Fading blooms discarded
A portrait of betrayal
This heartbreaking fantasy
Now a desolate deceit
Cast down upon the ground
To be crushed underfoot
By cruel boots that stamp
Your untrue lips that spilled
Emotions in beguiling cascade
Become a poisonous brew

Dancing happy feet
Cavorting exhortations
A good day for all

Tugging at heart strings
Unravelling emotions
Knit me a new one

#haiku

A voice in my head
Dark & seditious
Whispers again
Of things pernicious
#demon possession
Tis only a myth
A voice in my head
Nothing amiss
A priest did come
& spoke to me
The voice so quiet
A mystery
& now he lies
An unmarked grave
How loud he screamed
As his head I caved

Seeking safe havens
Tempestuous scallywags
Ho ho me hearties

Those long Russian nights
Balalaikas and vodka
Troika race at dawn

#haiku
...

Aniseed & pear drops
Humbugs & liquorice
So many sweet things
Candy memories of bliss

All these take me back
To a time so far away
A time of true innocence
When I knew how to play

The taste of them now
Sweet upon my tongue
Makes me smile
For then I was young

Manipulator extraordinaire
He drew them like moths
To his destructive flame
A mask did he wear
Macabre and dark
Concealing his evil
As he made his mark
But they couldn’t see
Blind to his plan
As he bound their souls
This cruel Machiavellian

Snagging his attention
One very wicked smile
Those black lace stockings
Her intention to beguile

She watched him stop
Turn around & stare
With a sway of her hips
Her silence was a dare

He couldn’t resist
Though try he might
She was in charge
This was her night

#SeduceMeSunday
...

A tainted love right from the start
Blind to the truth that there was no heart
The scene was grim that’s for sure
A great disappointment without any cure
