Metallica

Metallica

In his eyes, a fading light,
Like dusk falling into night.
Crimson drips from trusty blade,
A pooling satin on which he laid.

His throat's slick smileΒ of death,
A poignant moment onΒ empty breath.
Steamy vapor runs cold
A damned soul's been sold

He nothing more than carrion art,
MyΒ tinting strokeΒ navigated chart.
Upon a canvas made of skin,
He my Metallica mannequin.

A tool hungers for sanguine red,
Numerous slashes from which he bled.
Bloodletting to the last drip drops
Till the defiant heartbeat stops.

His essence fades like my rage,
Like drying strokes on a page.
Another sonnet darkly versed,
Quenching a parched artist's thirst.
