[00:32.67]Midwinter wrongs the rites of Spring
[00:35.04]Her spinal chill rakes the earth
[00:36.74]Whilst pensive souls at zero sing
[00:38.86]Woebetidings of rebirth
[00:40.55]Under cold stares of Mars maligned
[00:42.49]Near-suicides cross their hearts
[00:44.36]And unborns writhe in tepid brine
[00:46.42]For something wicked this way starts
[00:49.30]
[00:55.69]Beneath the howling stars
[00:59.57]
[01:04.88]Elizabeth, paragon of vice
[01:07.45]Watches the sun set pyres alight
[01:09.19]As Bane and Tyranny, Her Dobermans sleep
[01:11.57]Like spellbound paramours at Her feet
[01:13.69]A chatter of bells without
[01:15.38]Raise hellhounds, teeth on edge
[01:17.32]From sleighs hastened through snow lit red
[01:19.76]Guests espied from the garret ledge
[01:21.69]Great gloomy mirror tell Her face
[01:24.26]She will outblind them all
[01:25.57]That heavenly bodies would fall from grace
[01:28.13]To possess such a lustrous pall
[01:30.39]
[01:31.76]For beauty is always Cruel...
[01:33.95]
[01:35.57]For beauty is always...
[01:38.26]destiny in chains commence...
[01:41.20]
[01:42.13]Damnation under Gods seeking recompense
[01:44.76]Enslaving to the whims of this
[01:47.13]
[01:47.70]As the dance ensued
[01:50.01]
[01:57.44]Elizabeth's mood
[01:58.64]Tempered by the craft of a vitreous moon
[02:00.88]In slick black iciness it grew
[02:03.64]To consume
[02:04.51]The wench Her tower tombed
[02:06.57]Tending to Her costume
[02:08.32]Bore the brunt of the storm
[02:10.13]When the needle askewed
[02:11.32]She has Her dogs maul the bitch's wrists through
[02:14.82]Restored to jaded bliss
[02:16.14]This evisceratrix
[02:17.01]Descended to the ball
[02:18.57]With painted blood upon Her lips
[02:20.01]Passing like a comet so white
[02:21.89]As to eclipse
[02:24.38]
[02:34.45]The waltz wound down, transfixed
[02:35.88]Devoid of all breath in the air
[02:37.57]Even Death paled to compare
[02:39.25]To the taint of Her splendour
[02:43.07]So rare and engendered
[02:47.01]
[02:48.57]'Pon the awed throng gathered
[02:53.84]
[02:54.84]There...
[03:03.47]Beneath the howling stars
[03:06.78]She danced so macabre
[03:09.90]Men entranced divined from Her gait
[03:11.84]That this angel stepped from a pedestal
[03:14.34]Had won remission from fate
[03:16.65]By alighting to darker spheres
[03:18.40]Delighting in held sway
[03:20.59]For She was not unlike the Goddess
[03:23.84]To whom the wolves bayed
[03:27.46]"Whilst envy glanced daggers
[03:29.40]From court maidens, arboured
[03:31.47]
[03:32.03]Who whispered in sects
[03:34.34]Of suspicions abroad
[03:37.09]
[03:37.97]That Elizabeth bewitched
[03:39.53]See how even now the whore casts
[03:42.28]Her spells upon the Black Count
[03:43.97]Whom Her reddened lips hold fast"
[03:46.78]Tongue unto tongue
[03:47.97]Swept on tides without care
[03:50.96]For the harpies who rallied
[03:54.47]Their maledict glares
[03:55.53]A halo of ravens tousled Her hair
[03:58.16]Chandeliers a tiara
[04:00.09]For passions ensnared
[04:02.53]
[04:04.03]"Phantasies sexed
[04:05.46]When their eyes, moonstruck met
[04:08.74]Their friction wore a way
[04:12.64]Through the sea of foreplay
[04:15.57]Lovers at first bite
[04:18.27]She an Eve tempted to lay
[04:21.77]Gasping at rafters
[04:23.08]Flesh pressed in ballet"
[04:24.83]But caprice, honours leashed
[04:27.64]She absconded the feast
[04:29.77]To prowl wonderland
[04:30.95]Beasts in hand from the Keep
[04:33.33]Of Feudal dilemma
[04:34.45]Well mantled in furs
[04:36.20]Through cullis to watch
[04:38.41]Dogstars howl at the earth
[04:41.16]On this violent night
[04:42.66]Unholy night
[04:43.41]Winds lashed their limbs together
[04:44.97]the ether As vent it's wintry spite
[04:46.91]She wished His kiss on Her frozen landscapes
[04:51.90]To excite the bleak advance
[04:53.34]From castle bowers
[04:54.03]Wherein small hours
[04:54.83]The Devil never came by chance
[04:56.90]A lone charm tied to Her inner thigh
[04:58.71]Sent lusts nova as hooves trod
[05:00.15]Cobbled streets where lowlives fleet
[05:01.71]Were flung to a wayward god
[05:03.15]Midwinter wrongs the rites of Spring
[05:05.28]Her spinal chill rakes the earth
[05:08.15]Whilst pensive souls at zero sing
[05:09.59]Woebetidings of rebirth
[05:10.34]Under cold stares of Mars maligned
[05:11.53]Near-suicides cross their hearts
[05:12.53]And unborns writhe in tepid brine
[05:13.96]For something wicked this way starts
[05:16.46]Beneath the howling stars
[05:17.71]Pounding upon the pauper ridge
[05:19.84]Earshot of a hunched beldame
[05:21.96]
[05:23.59]Elizabeth teased, would He dare to please
[05:27.15]Such elderly loins enflamed?
[05:28.03]To this He feigned a grim disdain
[05:29.53]Playing to Her slayful eye
[05:30.90]But the hag replied...
[05:33.21]"This girl that chides
[05:34.84]Will soon be as plagued with age as I"
[05:37.27]Her consort laughed a plume of icy breath
[05:39.59]For Elizabeth's grace could raise
[05:42.40]A flag of truce in burning heaven
[05:44.90]Or the dead from early graves
[05:46.34]Yet still She seethed
[05:47.27]This proud Snow Queen
[05:48.21]Embittered with the cursed retort
[05:49.78]And because He sought Her loves onslaught
[05:51.65]He gutted the crone for sport
[05:53.15]Soon in full moon fever they were wed
[05:55.15]Lycanthropic in the conjugal bed
[05:56.53]Littered with aphrodisiacs
[05:57.53]To tease dynastic union
[05:58.53]And beget them further maniacs
[05:59.72]Elizabeth
[05:59.90]Free reigned, now a Countess
[06:01.15]Outwielded and outwore
[06:01.90]Her title like a favoured dress
[06:03.40]Whilst Her errant Lord
[06:04.63]
[06:06.82]Whose seasons savoured war
[06:10.57]Stormed black to fell the infidel
[06:16.35]
[06:17.07]Her embers, tempered, roared.
