Dare you READ the BINDING SPELL?

To the new muses reading these lines.... 

Press play.

Can you feel me 

For within your mind I now walk

Can you can hear my sweet voice as I now talk

Can you feel me slowly creeping  

Like a new force 

Through those cautious unexplored or unvisited emotional 

Corridors of your mind

As I pause invisible by your side and shamelessly 

Hypnotise you to 

Whisper this binding rhyme

For You are now mine

So says King Solomon

You may pass it 

Away as a sensuous 

Strange wet dream

You may convince yourself 

It's only your fertile 

Imagination 

Sending impressions from a deep place where I've broken the seal

But believe me

It's real

And you will see and 

Embrace it in time

For you are now mine

So says King Solomon

From the hidden passages

In my Black Grimoire

Stolen like a common thief

From the Devil's Black Keep

I invocate this binding spell

To force you to love me as you sleep

So dream of me

Tonight 

Just past midnight at a quarter to three

Until we meet

I've cast your name

To be petitioned and burnt

Into the ritual cauldron and now there's no one else

To blame

Don't question yourself when you unconsciously start tasting my name

And counting down the dogeared days

And seemingly endless nights

Tossing and turning

Restless and filled with angst

Until we meet in the Great In-Between 

When your soul

To me is summoned 

To take flight 

For you are now mine

So says King Solomon

So be it
