vervain 02:00
a moonless sky, a cotton dress, the wings of a dragon unfurled she’s riding atop the emerald leather she’s riding on top of the world her past in embers on the wind her future in the mirror of the present her spine tipped forward from the hip body raised, knees drawn together the sky smells of mephistopheles he flew here before, he’ll fly again you can taste his tricks upon the breeze where holds the souls of all his men lovers once, the woman of magick, the man of the subverse, fucking each other on plains of rapture to birth a new universe they screwed & they screwed & they screwed each other over left teeth marks in each other’s hearts became ghosts in each other’s thoughts birdshit on a windowsill no one cares to clean off she rides it’s her sky her stomach her spell sunbeams on gumtrees vervain on bookshelves raindrops in hair windswept by the night into the mist, giddy, she glides

persephone 03:06
the devil, the pirate, the witch, the joker the fox, the cat, the white ox smoker the tramp, the whore, the pimp, the assassin i’m runnin’ outta breath + i can’t stop laughin’ and you can call me persephone i’m the queen life’s not the same no more can’t you tell? i am too beautiful in my true form to be seen by mortal men i am a fury i am a daughter of the night i am a banshee i can devour or ignite so give me back my flaws give me back my flaws give me back my flaws cut my face open ’til I scar

i drew blood from a stone spat wisteria from a guitar dangled my feet from a sickle moon let out a universal howl vamped it into a song rode him like a high class whore felt my teeth lengthening and my skin to turn to fur as the whites of my eyes grew black the hackles of my soul rose up i’m gonna do this become violent and curious queen of death in rainbow moonstone + black onyx goddess of spring in jasmine + roses conquering suicide at the masquerade ball a stiletto heel in the neck of a black dog add some vibrato for the underside of love drink that espresso for a taste of god step into the inferno to believe in your lungs shoot up your veins with the sound of my voice cry in your boudoir and pour my soul into a silver chalice for the angels to swig at dusk write + sing + write + sing + write + sing again! become stardust feel it all the way through bathe in alicante bouchet rosé fall in love and let it fall away let the bluebells fall in ballads upon my face let my mascara drip in the rain as i love + i choke + i love once again

about

skybelly Melbourne, Australia

born under a full moon,
perfumed by jasmine & roses,
this long-legged damsel
is a one helluva hell raiser.
she's a librettist,
a space dust sorceress,
with love on her hands and blood in her heart.
