Cerberus

[Inspired by @bryanrobertheap and @aleishagayle20]

Purple fire will melt my feet,
I'll wander over to the Lord to meet,
I will kneel in eternal flames,
Unheard words will voice my appeal,
Skin will crisp and burn,
For my life, I'll truly yearn,
"Release me," I plead,
As he chooses for me to bleed,
The heat makes bones break to bits,
He leans in, touches my forehead with his lips,
"This is your release," he murmurs,
"Every soul is mine, all become Burners."

Spirits of blackened light drift past,
He smiles, white teeth flash,
"What do you want from Hell?"
"All I wish from hell, is a fond farewell,"
He laughed and mountains fell,
Long-fingers rest atop a great three-headed beast,
All three heads whimpered,
A thought inside my head glimmered,
"Your beast is ill, I see,"
"My guardian is fine," Said He,
I shook my head, standing from the flames,
And my burnt shell went to feel the monster's veins,
"He is hurt," I say, "Let me help him,"
"I fear he has broken a limb,"
Dark Lord of the inferno, face sinking in grief,
"He will heal, he is not your earthly mastiff,"
I shook my head, letting a tear evaporate from my cheek,
"Demons have entered the wound, he is too weak..."

The Lord's anger smoked red in a flare,
Avoidance of immolation, is this your dare?
"Even you, Lucifer, must care,"
All his face was a frown,
Underneath a twisted, blackened crown,
Reluctant eyes turned to Cerberus, pained,
A glimmer shot through eyes ashamed,
"Save my beast, and you will get your farewell,
I will spare you from a fiery cell in Hell."

When Hell Freezes Over

Oh, dear, oh, my, 'Tis quite the mess, Come take a look, you'll never guess. The perfect sight to make you sober, It looks like Hell has frozen over.

It

It sits in the corner of the damp and shadowed room, It basks in the glory of the darkness and the gloom, It sits and it stares and it waits and it breaths, Just In and out And in And Out The it, its...

Cloak Of Nettles

The lights shine bright in heaven, The coals burn hot in hell, My cloak, it is of nettles, And that is just as well.

Watch

Watch for her. The one with the eyes. As she draws you in. With those midnight sighs. Watch for her. When you're there she'll moan. Think you know her. You won't be alone. Watch for her.

This is great 😊 I love Greek mythology and this has really inspired me. As long as you don't mind me pulling threads from the same topic?

@Thebeautifulundead - go for it!! Please tag me so I can find it to read! I'm a big fan too!!! 😜

There are several outlets for "sci-fi/fantasy" pieces. I think you would do us all a favor by trying to get this out to the public eye.

@JWstbrk - wow! Thanks! No idea how though!!

@JWstbrk many thanks for the RP!!

I think sciencefictiononline.com features poetry and possibly pedestal magazine as well. Do a Google search. There are others.

@JWstbrk will do - thank you!!
