Inferno
January 23, 2014
Iago’s green eyed monster
made it too easy.
I borrowed one of Lucifer’s matches
and stole Odysseus’ mead to help the flames
catch hold.
This house we built of terror and screams is
white-hot with vile secrets,
smoking like Montag’s forbidden books.
They do not call me anything.
I slither into Goliath’s shadow,
Now who’s laughing?
