The Strange Woman

A lovely woman comes suddenly in sight; Her lively eyes, full and black, cheeks Brown and bright like the day; a tunic of red, And a pure countenance that made him obey. She speaks in gentle tones, in words like sweet honey, From a mouth smoother than oil. She sat down next to him, legs stretched out in sight, Eyes agape to the wall opposite of them. She pretends not to notice the man. She orders a drink, “Jack and Coke, Double-Tall please.” Amazed by her beauty, “What is your name?” He asks. “Where have you come from?” Like smooth butter, she speaks, “Lie with me, And you will know the secrets of my heart.” With soft enticing speech, her words became like Drawn swords. She made him forget his loneliness. With Pleasures only to let borrow, he forgets His sadness, his sorrow. Her lips were full, soft and wet, Pressed against the man, sparking Wicked thoughts as they went. Deeper it gets, stroking The man’s fire, lighting him up, With much intense desire. She was a lion hidden in tall grass, Ready and waiting. Like a moth to a flame, He did not know that she would cost him his life.
