Beauty is the Beast MAG
Her skin, butter-cream by day, turns translucent by night.
Her hair, ebony black, shimmers like the night sky
But only to deceive those she encounters
Her lips, stained crimson from her victims
Eyes piercing blue, penetrating those who make contact with them
Her corpse, deemed immaculate by those she lures into her trap
She is the deceiver, the harlot of the hills
But cleverly disguised
The mark of the beast lies in her hands

m.kelly,
now, sorry, but what is wrong with you? We are allowed to have our own opinion, but does yours have to be mean? This poem is good, unique, and well written. I understand that you may not like it, but don't tell other people not to post. Please.

Actually, I (sort of) agree with DecemberSun14. To me it was written more like a description than a poem. However, I do think it is quite beautiful.
I do have to admit though - I sort of agree with Nyree1593 and MissFaber. ^.^ Sorry...

Favorite Quote:
“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide
them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.” - Jim Morrison
