Seductive Reaper...

‘tis but a thing she does

The female assassin

They say that poison is her weapon… maybe on occasion

But that is a level she’s surpassing

You see, what they fail to understand is that she doesn't take lives for vengeance

‘tis but a profession

The beautiful, tantalizing female killer

Her male victim’s obsession

One minute she’s a runway model… with her devilishly sinful grin

A smile so engrossingly enticing… full, red lips that cut across her face playfully

Against her flawlessly peaceful skin

One word for that…’killer’

Forbidden pleasures… blissful sin

She’s taken out big names… maybe even one or two heads of state

To dinners she’s escorted these men… and later on left them in their deadest state

She walks through the front door, but when leaving she can scale windows

Agility is her forte… ‘Man killer’ she is

The black widow…

In a red dress

You may be reading this thinking you can never fall prey to her seductive tentacles

‘tis an argument I do not even wish to get into

I digress.

Sometimes I like to paint pictures with words... some playful, imaginative pieces.
