The Last Moments of Medusa
By: Yahaira
I came upon a cave of still souls,
Shocked faces and unspoken screams.
Have you no shame in the monstrosity
Of your doings?
Her cruel laughter filled my ears,
The laugh of death.
I closed my eyes as she neared.
Her breath smelled of decay
Leaping right down to my core.
Truly, she was mesmerizing. A face of cruelty and grace.
Her hair whispered to me. Holding me captive.
Of course she would love nothing more than
To add me to her collection.
As my sword came down, I saw the fear there.
Yet in death, she is captivating.
Cast upon her face is the lonesomeness and anger.
Tragedy couldn't have looked more divine.
Shocked faces and unspoken screams.
Have you no shame in the monstrosity
Of your doings?
Her cruel laughter filled my ears,
The laugh of death.
I closed my eyes as she neared.
Her breath smelled of decay
Leaping right down to my core.
Truly, she was mesmerizing. A face of cruelty and grace.
Her hair whispered to me. Holding me captive.
Of course she would love nothing more than
To add me to her collection.
As my sword came down, I saw the fear there.
Yet in death, she is captivating.
Cast upon her face is the lonesomeness and anger.
Tragedy couldn't have looked more divine.
