Fishing With Lucy

2007, revised May 2nd, 2013



How neatly northerly she points her tail,

With fluffsome front paws pointing to the south;

Whiskers point west and eastwards, without fail,

Each side of her benignly-smiling mouth.



She navigates from…

Lullaby For Romeo

Lullaby For Romeo

by Sara L Russell

21/2/12    16:09pm




How lovely is my dearest one in sleep,

A fair whisper of who he was before;

Silence has fallen in the castle keep,

Spring birds are singing; and he speaks no more.



How pale, my Romeo, by evening light,

How cold, these sullen lips I'm burning for;

The sunset burns with amber, warm and bright,

Blooms shine like lanterns; and he sees no more.



I kiss the…

The Killing of Anne Boleyn

The Killing of Anne Boleyn

© Sara L. Russell, 29th March 2003




Alas, ambitious girl, foregone of France,

Thy days are numbered now, through loss of power.

Though once thou led the king a merry dance,

His gaze will wander from a faded flower.



Women are cattle in the eyes of men,

Mere chattels; drear, embattled, scapegoat souls;

How utterly unthinkable, Boleyn,

For queens to rise above domestic goals.



Thy barren womb… Continue

A Vampyre Love Poem...

Vampyre Love Poem

By Sara L. Russell, 18:10, 14/2/09

(first posted on Vampirefreaks.com, 14/2/09)






Oh come my beautiful and darkly-shining,

Release me from the thirst of love's desire;

Half hidden now, the cloud-veiled moon is rising

To shine when we are joined in passion's fire.

The moonlight ripples out across the water,

All's quiet beneath the star-bejewelled sky,

As shadow lord embraces twilight's daughter,

Speaking her… Continue

Pandora Opens The Box







Pandora Opens The Box

by Sara L. Russell November 08, 2003




Pandora slipped her hands onto the lid

Merely intending one clandestine peep,

And as she lifted, monsters of the id

Slowly began arising from their sleep.



Cruelty flew out over less wakeful beasts,

Heedless of tortured screams rising from Hell;

Diseases followed, with unholy priests

And lowly demons, sprung from Satan's… Continue

A Vampire Tale (In 4 Sonnets)





A Vampire Tale

(In 4 sonnets)

by Sara L. Russell, 2/6/03




I




A vampire's spun of dust and frailty,

Condemned to shun the healing light of day;

No innocent first kiss for such as he,

No cross to keep his own demons away.



He's poised in shadow, by the lady's bed,

Fixated by her flawless, youthful skin,

Her fragile throat beneath her dreaming head,

Translucent, showing pale blue… Continue

The Absinthe Fairy

Sara Russell 15/7/07




When evening comes, with carapace of gold,

To still the wingbeats of another day,

Again, as with artists and bards of old,

La Fee Verte comes, to spirit me away.



She laughs at all my weaknesses and vice,

Stealing my… Continue

Reclaim the Sky (for Elisabeth Fritzl)





RECLAIM THE SKY

(for Elisabeth Fritzl)

Sara L. Russell, May 11th, 2008






Reclaim the sky, the shape of every cloud,

The gradient of sunsets, red to gold;

Release the thoughts you dared not say aloud,

Relinquish fears too terrible to hold.





If we could buy a mansion by the sea

With miles of free horizon in full view,

Where comorants, like girls' daydreams, fly free,

Elisabeth, we'd… Continue

The Singing Cat (Sonnet)

The Singing Cat

For Daniel & Bella, by Sara L. Russell




Come Daniel, let me hear you once again

Play poignant arias on your guitar;

I'll lend my diva voice to lovelorn pain

To touch even the coldest distant star.



Golden chimeras of forgotten days,

The winged sphinx deities we cats hold dear

Will always turn their heads when Daniel plays

And prick up their bejewelled ears to hear.



Oh let me vocalize a sweet… Continue
