Jezebel

There is danger in these eyes,
Tempting as their lure may be.
A darkness of deceitful lies
Casts shadows surreptitiously
To hide behind her supple limbs,
Kiss the sunset of her lips.
Taste the magical delight
Dancing from her fingertips.

There is little to forewarn as
She lies stealth in her disguise.
All her wiles come into play
Offering herself as prize.

Gleefully he takes the lure,
Sets the hook deep in his jaw.
Weakened by his carnal urge,
Lust becomes his fatal flaw.

Who would know you, Jezebel?
Who would heed your siren’s call?
Mind is strong but flesh is weak and
Eyes cannot foresee the fall.
