Holy Guacamole, Trish!! I love this! Dark, mysterious, languid with rich images of demon-love; simmering torridness and wonderful timing and cadenced flow fly into the gargoyled castle I keep in the shuttered part of my mind as:

"As ripples of blood mingles with sand
Flow like a ghost rivers
Freely from her face"

A beauty of a piece, rich and provacative. :)
