Medusa’s Cry

Oed’ und leer das Meer

 

 

Peach shaped drops

talk about my life in tragedies

turning me into a catastrophe

 

You had multiple lovers

yet you felt the need to devour me

due to fair cheeks and pliant mounds

 

You warped deity, you

wrote sins across my skin

carved salt and water in me

 

You molded brines made

out of your sediment

spread pillars apart to form scum

 

Leaving my storytelling to the untold

 

You had her craft me

out of a serpents skin

and it nearly killed you

 

Frightened you as you were

witnessing venomous tongues

in the shape of your lies lies lies

 

One would have thought

your artificial waves were of

made up of guillotine
