Crown Of Vengeance

Her crown was a burden

and it’s weight was fashioned

as a mask of feathers…

revealing irony’s angelic, sinister smile.

The smiling mask promised

to hide the tears

flowing from the storms

that raged in her eyes.

tears that demanded

toll and name;

for the woman

that hid beneath.

The storms

whispered secrets

with rage

and vowed.

She

would

have

Vengeance.
