Siren
By Magdalena Sky

honeyed kisses sing 

seduction’s truth 

mortals clip 

siren’s wings 

 

in youth 

desire betrays psyche 

makes of man 

a love-struck tyrant 

 

vibrant feathers 

their prophecies plucked 

psychopomp’s path  

betrayed by love 

 

bees flit 

in a house of madness 

la petite mort and devotion  

undress
