Sleep With The Devil
*Sensitive/explicit material - Loosely based on 'Down With The Devil - Rusty Slagle*
Always feel I ain't gotta choice but be,
The little bitch who runs around and worships he,
He the one who kisses and tortures me,
Can't imagine anyone worse than me.
Do it now!
He said to me,
DO IT NOW!
He screamed at me.
That's right, I sleep with the Devil,
Fuck about with fear and lust, I don't know bevel.
Never am I right, forever I am wrong.
My confidence?... Old friend, long gone.
Pain is my best friend,
I'll laugh with her, till the end,
Joke about, smoke a blunt,
He chokes me, till I bend.
Just forget whatcha' Mumma said,
All men wants is a pretty head,
Bias? I think you've been misled.
You see, I ain't got a choice in this,
Run around voicing this,
Not long, he'll be pointing this,
9mm gun, a hollow hole of bliss...
Bliss... Bliss...
Fuck it, I'm dead already,
Never gonna have a mind nice and steady.
Bruised is my colour skin,
This is the situation I am in.
Send him back to the fucking pits, no Glory,
Never been a quiet girl, it's gonna end gory,
Hammer to my hand I know I ain't sorry,
Strike to the skull and I'll lose all my worry.
Yes... Yes...
Please!
He said to me,
PLEASE!
He screamed at me.
Watching his life leave before my eyes,
I used to be his wife but now there’s compromise.
He took me on a long journey of misery,
Surprise, growing up so dismally.
Time I got what I know I deserve,
Freedom to think and speak.
Freedom to laugh and drink.
Freedom to do whatever comes to my head first,
I think I’m gonna burst, what is this feeling?
Finally gonna run this shit with better and more meaning.
You know what, I fucked with the Devil.
E.T.

Emma, this was a stunning write. From the image to the repetition, to the structure, the tone and flow. It was delighfully indecent and I loved it! The layout was brilliant and it was blissfully dark. A huge vote and nom from me:)
I actually took the image myself too a couple years back! Seemed fitting, thanks Rachel I'm actually quite stunned to get such a quick an positive response from you and others! Rusty Slagle's influenced me, suppose I pent up some anger to write this! I do love a little selfish dark tale - thanks Rachel!
An arrogant write, My applause
Regards

Thanks Williamsji, I'm overwhelmed with the feedback!
Very deep and thought provoking, well put together, fantastic write.
Regards Mark.
Many thanks Mark, I really wanted to tackle a awkward subject in a modern and twisted way, which makes it sort of darkly enjoyable. I had been keeping a lot of anger locked up so releasing it did feel good and using it as a factor to poetry was even better! Glad you liked this.
Emma, a powerful write... Brilliant
Loved it
Maddison
Maddison! Such a nice comment, I hope it did influence some power as much as it can. I never usually produce explicit poetry, I'm pleased one of my tries got such good responses!
Sounds to be a, "stand your ground moment" at play in this one Emma, job well done and it appears the devil himself, had no choice but to step back and take notice from you in this poem and i am sure take the back seat he did, to and in, this one...Much power in your punch, in this straight forward, in your face rhymatic masterpiece....Very good delivery...
Kind regards,
Jim
Jimmy! I've only just seen your comment (I really should keep an eye on comments) Thank you again, for all the lovely compliments. As you can tell I was feeling pretty edgy at the time, so I had to write something down. You should check out the Poet who inspired me to write this!
I'm really glad you liked it, I'm quite surprised with all the good response from people on this. I'm not used to writing risky poems. But thank you again!
Love, Emma
Awesome write!!! I gotta vote for this one. It is so unique!!!
Love Always,
Val ♥️
Thanks so much Val - this is my tougher side *rawr* haha!
Glad you liked reading it. :)
