Red eyed , with hair like trailing long black snakes
Their nipples erect from a terrible lust to tear
at body or soul ; it is not their part to care
if agony is the path their vengeance takes.

With unclean talons hooked tight in my heart,
half bird , half woman , in my fevered dreams
they scream unearthly terrifying screams
rending all I have ever loved apart.
