Catharsis

He breathes in silent longing
As she finds joy in his despair
Ignoring all discomfort
His limbs asleep, his mind aware

Running of his forehead
His fevered thoughts drip to the floor
His shame her greatest triumph
She holds a key, he is the door

"Mercy! Mercy!" Screams a thought
"The night was long and I am broken
O please have mercy on my soul!
Accept my patience as a token."

Comfort him with words unspoken
As you wield your wrath and smite his flesh
May skin be bruised and pride be broken
Increased catharsis
Lash upon lash

Strike, o Goddess of Redemption!
Raise your hand against your servant!
Crush the body! Cleanse the soul!
For he is the embodiment of abomination

The demon of his failings
Sips wine atop his aching back
She weighs upon his ego
With every word, another crack

Comfort him with words unspoken
As you wield your wrath and smite his flesh
May skin be bruised and pride be broken
Increased catharsis
Lay lash upon lash upon lash

Strike, o Goddes of Contempt!
Let his existence feed your fury!
Destroy his masculine misconception!
For he should know he is not worthy

Running of his forehead
His fevered thoughts drip to the floor
His shame her greatest triumph
She holds a key, he is the door
