Mr. Hellish Eyes

Braided Coil
Clutched Throat
Dishonored Hope.

Mr. Hellish Eyes

Henry never loved her,
Elizabeth, the wench
He was forced to marry.

Louis was a blackmailing swine,
Like a leech on a rock in the bahamas
A transexual with nothing to lose.

Elizabeth loved to bathe in hot water,
Steaming on a cold day, naked,
A blessedly warm spring in her own home.

A black powder pistol lay wrapped in his coat,
Henry felt his eyes water, with no regard.
He went to her.

There in the rafter, a rope taught,
Louis, on the other end,
Her lying mouth open, throat cut as with razor wire.

Elizabeth's time has come,
Deeply she sinks into her tub,
Bubbling water, pronounced screech.

Henry cares not,
Dishonored Hope.

Mr. Hellish Eyes,
Released himself from our world,
So he could haunt his appendages in theirs
