Angel Whore
by crumpled_sheets


A red rose for Satan's whore...

I need a god to satisfy me
I look for them everywhere
And always find them
My basic criteria is
Can you make me crawl?

Because if you can't
I have been known
To rip men to shreds
For trying and failing

I think I am an angel
Another angel is not
Satisfying enough for me
I need a god to satisfy
The ache inside my joints

I need to crawl
Like a whipped dog
And pick your flower
Off the floor

The star of the morning
Fell from heaven
I followed
To catch him
I wanted him for myself
He was so lovely to look at
And my wings are never long enough
For me

They said he could devour me
That didn't bother me
I like to make love
To hungry men
You need to see your bones
Sometimes

There are little gods everywhere
I know them all by name
And by scent
Known them all carnally
Without a shame
It is a genuine pleasure
To feel their pain

Love doesn't feel very good to me
I think that is what's wrong with me
I think I would rather feel the sting
Of a slap
Than feel the brush
Of a kiss against my cheek

But I am good at what I do
I have never doubted myself
Nor have the little gods around me

They feel the need
To pluck out the
Feathers in my wings
And throw my halo on the floor

A red rose for Satan's Whore.
