Cora the Demoness

A place for my works and workings.

[corathedemoness]

Painted something for Tezrian.

[corathedemoness]

Wrote a poem for Clauneck

Eyes Fixed

Won't miss

Tongue Darts

Target Bound

Frogs leave you transfixed

With hops you can't diss

Making their way into hearts

With their croaking sound

Their colors are mixed

Between the rainbow and bliss

Inspiring works of arts

Adeptly living on the trees and the ground

Of insects nature is taxed

Hidden princes of a princesses kiss

They mascot tapes and yogurt marts

It's easy to see the love when everywhere they are found

They make it easy to relax

On great nights they can't be dismissed

A marvel of many parts

Are frogs so sleek and round

Hoppily,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Finished a painting for Aphrodite.

[corathedemoness]

[corathedemoness]

Did a painting for Clauneck last night.

[corathedemoness]

Did a painting for myself.

[corathedemoness]

Wrote a poem

A cute shape

Expressive face

Covered head to toe in fur

Little hamsters we adore

Stick in the mind like tape

To and from they race

Grab a friend, maybe four!

Have an adventure and do a chore

His round ears

Twitch and bring cheers

Top of the tier

Always ready, no danger is too severe

Little hamsters we adore

Pierce our hearts to the core

So grab a friend (or maybe four!)

And watch them go, encore!

Aprons and a cute hat

Watch out for the cat

Sparkling eyes galore

Watching them you'll never snore

A ham ham fan,

CoratheDemoness

Wrote a poem for Hecate

Benevolence

Daily relevance

She often leaves one awestruck

To know her feels like a stroke of luck

She hangs in the mind with permanent grace

She lights the way and sets the pace

The world unfolds with new paths to face

There is no finish line, the unfurling walkways will be traced

She holds the keys to many a lock

She can help you transcend blocks

Her power is so great, no one dares to mock

It's not hard to see how easily a day can be rocked

"Hit the books and study hard the words"

Enhance your bane, your game, your wards

Ask the deck, consult the flames

Give yourself space and enjoy some games

Trifold, transcendent, thoughtful

Working with her is quite bountiful

She is there when you need, and even when you don't

With her guiding hand fall you won't

Devotional,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Wrote a poem

There's nowhere to walk and no place to go

The friendly monster says hello

It guards it's treasures

It's earthly pleasures

With a whisk of its tail

It scatters a trail

And a defiant stomp of its feet

To the couch it does retreat

The knickknacks cast asunder

Just before the household slumber

It does make a mighty mess indeed

It's on these things that the monsters attention will feed

The chaos and disarray

When cleaned for the day

Will prove more than a match tomorrow

When more space it simply must borrow

The friendly monster says goodnight

And wishes to read and sleep tight

You'll look forward to the monster everyday

And hug and hold it, that is the way

Loving a monster,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Wrote a poem

With the strike of a match

The flick of a lighter

The wick does catch

And the room gets brighter

Carrying love and ambitions

Praise and adoration

Perhaps part of nightly traditions

Given dutifully in admiration

The air is filled with scents of orange and lilac

Of pine and cinnamon apple pie

The scents of things one may lack

Are there for the noses appreciation so long as one has supply

And when the time for pleasantries is past

A puff of smoke replaces the dancing light

Remnants of burning and scents linger, here to last

Giving a glimpse of what brought such delight

So dear to me

Is the chance to be

In the presence of heated wax

It makes me smile and helps me relax

I love candles,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Wrote a poem after meditating on Leviathan

The ocean is mesmerizing and vast

It houses creatures both clever and fast

The sun beams trail down from above the waves

And fall from sight below depths dark as caves

It imposes upon you it's size

A place where you are humbled and small

And it's depths have claimed many a prize

Forgotten to the world in no time at all

It is then, not much of a surprise

That out of the water you may want to rise

Away from the stinging, biting beasts

Lest you become one of life's feasts

Away from the deep and the open where you are prone

Away from hidden dangers best left alone

But if you can muster up the courage and backbone

You'll have an experience that won't be outshone

Things that on land you'll never see

And just get the chance to truly be

Engulfed in a salty world varied and breathtakingly alive

An opportunity you'll be glad you haven't been deprived

Conquering Thalassophobia,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Cora's Fear

It's the things that stand at the end of your bed

The things that swoop above your head

The uneasy things that fill you with dread

And the things that could leave you worse than dead

Fear is a funny thing, it comes and it does spread

Easier than a knife loaded with butter across your morning bread

It creeps and it hangs in the places your mind doesn't tread

And it dangles before you by nothing but thread

The chittering in the walls

The figures in the halls

The voice that from the still calls

The sounds that follow you after night falls

Rejection that sits in the back of your brain

The the terrible thoughts of which you refrain

The agony that everything isn't more plain

So that you don't feel like you're standing in front of a train

When you know it, you'll never escape from it

It will test your nerves and grit

To not react, to not have a fit

To not let it drag you into it's pit

Enraptured by terror,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Did a poem

The preparation:

Time to create first impressions

I'll happily set the pace

Keep it fresh and simple

Every word has it's place

I start with intentions,

Of conversation and friendships

And discuss with them things most delightfully boring

About watermarks and when to use rosehips

And I know that their agenda is selfish

They'll use me, try to confuse me

Convince me they're nothing more than another in need

Looking for someone else who at least will agree

But I know the truth

They're wounded and bleeding

Their heart needs mending

And their soul healing

So the conversation goes on

It's the least I can do

Sometimes all I can offer is peace of mind

Some words of comfort from me to you

Talking,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Of the things in this world that can soothe

You and another, for a moment make things right

Together an embrace, in the warmth you bathe

Hard to breathe, wrapped up so tight

On a cold moonlit night,

Beneath the covers, souls take flight

The feeling of being held in someone's arms

Peace and comfort among the charms

Skin on skin, the heat beneath the sheet rises

It's time for experience and it's time for rest

With another body one familiarises

And gives them their captivating best

Soon everything that was once had is spent

But just because you can't stand,

Doesn't mean it's time to close on the event

Cuddle up and stroke their hair with your hand

Exhaustion shouting your name,

Upon the pillows heads fall

Two beings in comfort with the other to blame

Together they will answer sleeps call

Warmly,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Another something different.

Independence

Standing tall on your own

Showing the world your resilience

And that to sleep you don't need goose down

While it may sound great

This fact, let me impart

An experience that is far from second rate

And will give you dopamine off the chart

On a cold winters night

By the TV's glowing light

Holding another tight

Just feels good and right

The warmth you will feel

As you close your eyes in peace

Arms tighter than steel

Your deepest troubles you can backspace

To hold one another

Despite good or bad weather

Is a comfortable feeling for sure

No matter your woes it's an amazing cure

Daydreaming of Warmth,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Continuing something different

The paper lays bare

Pen in hand,

Sat down to create, but where oh where

Has my inspiration gone, there are no prints in the sand

It hasn't gone away or abandoned me

I don't have to plee or pay a fee

But it will take some time to unwind

And plenty of time for it's tongue to unbind

Shutting down and clamming up

The thoughts of others matter too much

And what should be is littered in markup

And everything comes to a pileup

Fear of hurting the feelings of others

Fear of inadequacy and being a bother

Of showing my hand and needing to create a breather

And having to neglect myself until I wither

There are those with whom I cannot share the words in my heart

Words which will get mangled and tossed aside

They can make it hard to self start

Because in the end I know my feelings I have to continue to hide

Restrained,

CoratheDemoness

[corathedemoness]

Continuing something different

In the house, deep in the bedroom

Is a nest, where the dragons sleep past noon

Among the dark full nest unbothered by the gloom

Peacefully resting to the sounds of many old cartoon

The young dragon says it's time to get up

That days are for playing and pancakes and syrup

So up goes the sleepy dragon who longs to sleep past noon

If she got more rest it'll be too soon

The dragons feed on yogurt and blueberries

They consume and play with devices

And the dragon departs for their duties

A house is not a hoard without sacrifices

While the other dragons rest and slowly enact their day

The dragon who sleeps till noon is busy earning pay

Because life doesn't get to be all fun and play

The lazy, angry dragon is the one who people slay

By late afternoon she does return,

Rest is fleeting but eventually she'll get her turn

As the others rest and nap and play all day

The tired dragon prepares to rest for another grueling day

Sleepy,

CoratheDragoness
