Seductress

Passer-by with uncanny eye

You see me seated alone, unwary

Scent of roses, a wild cherry

Slender, slim; indulge your whim

An exquisite body your flames ignite:

Temptation for your appetite.

Eyes, pale blue, calling to you.

Revealing clothes, skin nearly bare

And long, flowing, lustrous hair

Curvaceous shape, your eyes agape

Ivory teeth form an innocent smile

Caught in my snare, build up your guile

Simple banter spilled by enchanter

Words to entrance scented with honey

Who can suspect an expression so sunny?

Your body aching, a chance taken

Lean in close for a careful kiss

Muscles stiffen upon hearing a hiss

Your blood runs cold at what you behold

Eyes aghast to find a snake

You draw back a little too late

Venom released, your heart rate increased,

Two tidy holes made in your skin,

A blur, confusion, your world topples and spins.

Your body beside me; I feel no pride

I slide away before you have awoken

With dreams shattered, heart broken

Just a poor boy, just another toy

Another man has come to play

Another man has fallen prey
