Phoenix Wings

[Revolte]

Venus shoved cobblestone
and ether in my gut
while acid rivers poured
down my vampire face.
I guess to love is to beg
and to beg is to rape,
but my affections roared like lions
perched on giant rose buds
of every color
and every scent.
So when arrows struck
the Phoenix wings
and she fell to waters,
she took with her my love
my desire,
my heart.
