Original DDE™ surrealistic art entitled “Ice Queen” by: rob kistner © 7/25/24
Bewitching queen of ice
she’ll wrap you in her arms
bestow her sensual charms
but it won’t happen twice
bewitching queen of ice
she’s feared in all the land
her tale told in lyrics grand
her love’s a lethal vice
bewitching queen of ice
fall to her ice-hot pout
your luck has just run out
you’ve rolled the deadly dice
bewitching queen of ice
even the wisest can’t resist
willpower ceases to exist
they pay the precious price
bewitching queen of ice
bent like a puppet to her will
your ruin’s her biggest thrill
the strongest turn meek as mice
bewitching queen of ice
and once she has your soul
her freeze will take its toll
you will be her sacrifice
the bewitching queen of ice

Oh I love this Rob! It’s sexy and light and goes with the form so well.
Thank you Kim. It was fun to write. I wrote the lyrics for my band’s original songs back in the day, so this form was comfortable in that way… 🙂
I enjoyed your extended balata, Rob, and the witchery you wove into it.
Thank you so much Kim… 🙂
fantastical fantasy piece Rob though there are overtones with reality too 😉
“her tale told in lyrics grand
her love’s a lethal vice”
it reminds me a little of Keats’ “la Belle Dame sans merci”
Well Laura, neither of our dams have pity — though my friend, my Ice Queen may be more homicidal… 🙂
Love the character of the queen of ice. She is strong and fearsome. Thanks for joining in Rob.
Thank you Grace… 🙂
Rob, I love these lines:
“fall to her ice-hot pout
your luck has just run out”
She sparkles with danger <3
Thank you Lisa. She certainly is her own woman… 🙂
Would you say she’s a handful then?! ???? A consummate character sketch, Rob!
Dors, I think perhaps she’s two handfuls my friend… 😉
