Savage BeautyA Poem by Elaenor AislingI watched you in your savage beauty...
I watched you in your savage beauty
wild and untamed You sprang from here to there to here your garments rent in splays of silk trailing like wings behind you. Your talon hands they grabbed for mine digging in deep and drawing blood. I was no longer watching you I was with you, in this savage beauty. Ignored pain drove through my hand as you guided me through your dance macabre. How I loved you as I bled my hands about your waist You kissed me with the kiss of death And dead you fell within my arms My deadly, lovely, savage thing with splays of silk enveloping you.
