Inhaltsangabe

The "Book of Styx" is a collection of dark poetry in the setting of howling winds and eerie landscapes. The art comes from the murky imagination of Eddy Styx. Eddy Styx is the male, murderous, alter ego of C.M. Mattison. He has a flare for murder, mayhem, madness and poetry. His poetry will take you to a different world of shadowy reality within the dank, gloomy alleyways of his mind; his reality, where ghosts still walk and the dead have voice and speak, not always in whispers. He invites the reader to enter into this grim world, all of which is in his fevered mind. He is quick-witted and deadly accurate with his switchblade knife. When he takes on the project of murder, there is none like him in dedication. He is a modern day "Jack the Ripper." His poetry explores the delicate balance between life and death. With a deft mind, he will take the reader on a macabre journey of a lifetime.

Chapter One

     VIRGIN

    I, the burgeoning eradicator,
    dreams haunted by vampires and slayers,
    have not yet made my initial conquest.
    Decidedly,
    I have chosen my first mark ...


     SHE

    I didn't slay her ...
    She was gone when I found her,
    but,
    overcome with curiosity,
    I ...
    softly touched her pale, swollen lips
    and
    smelled her cream rinse-fragrant hair.


     LOVING

    I love the corpse
    that she is
    vivid and still
    as a masterpiece
    more beautiful in death
    color slowly
    vanishing
    as if brushed
    by a pale stroke
    for this transitory
    moment in time ...


     INVISIBLE

    I am forgotten,
    bootless ...
    I walk the streets
    of the unrequited.
    I am unacknowledged,
    appreciated, not,
    for I seek no reward.
    A quiet entity,
    calling no attention
    unto myself.
    Unobserved,
    I watch
    those who would
    stand out in the crowd.
    silently,
    I seek to know them
    only enough to avoid them
    and to remain
    beyond recollection.


     SUCCULENCE

    Silhouette in the window
    Inciting curves
    Enhancement
    In shades of gray
    On the flat canvas
    Of...
