Poems
Dec 2011
the nature of duplicity.
i am a tiger disguised as a house cat -
stretching my lithe body against the rays of the sun,
beckoning the naive to stroke my snow white coat.
i am a hornet with the visage of a butterfly -
spreading my wings in a flurry of scarlet,
blinding the pure in my dazzling flight.
i am a wolf wrapped tightly in sheep's clothing -
silently and peacefully at rest,
inviting the blessed to gather me in their arms.
i am a siren of old -
calling the innocent to me with a whispered song,
waiting for the **** with a shining smile.
i harbor no regrets.
i am fiery hell with an angel's face.
