"Sweet Chariot?"
Saxon Roth was singing out a song better made for whiskey induced nights and low lights. Sure some wanted to whistle while they worked but Sax preferred to sing. Her voice was gravel and blues, a smoky purr with a trace of barbwire and other sharp and deadly things.
It wasn't another night washing up tables at a bar, or another night of sweet satisfaction at a parlor full of tricks. No Saxon's world was a raw life full of grit and vermin, blood and gore" and she loved it.
Back of hand swiped along the her sweat beaded brow, looking more like a reckless matchstick girl then the rebel rouser she was come the thirteenth hour. Poet's tongue seduced by the prowling black and white of Poe or Shelley (no not Mary but Percy of course, tragic bedfellow he was but bless his heart he had a way with words!) on papyrus held not a word of lyrical recklessness but instead that sweet razorblade gospel
Her business associates, Styx and Stonze got a a kick out of Saxon and the way she'd sing the blues while stuffing a death plump corpse into the incinerator, her cheeks ash smudged and wearing a grin that a hellhound would recoil out. They all had their nicknames after all and all of them fit like devilish ninth gates and worship keys.
Styx was a wiry, nervous, lanky fool with swift eyes and a bone breaking voice where his brother in habit was Stonze. Rock solid and6"4" he was the boogey man, the undertaker, the Nightmare to haunt all the little boys and girls dreams to make them something horrible.
It was often a question of where do the serial killers go when they get bored with the life that once gave them a spark. Graveyards and Funeral homes seemed to be the highlight of life, and with Saxon in the crew well" all the more reason to join up.
"Swing Low?"
Saxon's voice growled out. A ricochet rock of hips as she watched with eyes the shade of a well polished pistol, oh that fire burn was an alluring thing.
Gun metal charms. The woman was slick. Slick as a fresh painting still left wet, slick as the blood that Styx and Stonze knew remained on her hands.
No matter how many times you washed. The blood would remain.
They called her Sax.
Because regardless of her glee, that sharp spark, and cutthroat hack and slash style, the girl could sing the blues.
Cause when it came to Death and Mourning and Loss" some might shed a tear, some might give out a shout of joy but most were left with Nothing.
For those. Sax sang the blues. Mockery bemused but even in the end" it was still" blues.
"Coming for to carry me home?"
Another shove of corpse into that white hot heat, Saxon wore a smile of a cat that devoured a canary. Ripped it's feathers from its skin and skinned the pretty bird alive. Sometimes she watched on with a yearning look that Styx and Stonze watched with a subtle fascination.
They had to wonder over what Sax thought, what she had going on in her head as she watched the bodies burn.
It was almost like part of her ached, yearned to take her boot and shove them deeper into that burn. To kick those burning corpses until they were nothing more then ash that she had some sort of doing, some sort of reckoning with.
"I'll cut a hole and pull you through.?
The dying lyrics became a haunted whisper. A turn away with hand in oil slick hair and a satiated shine to mercury' she walked past Styx and Stonze with a teeth bared grin. For Sax it was just another day playing the unconquerable prey amongst two caged and crazed predators.
