Bait and Switch

You drew me in, tempted and teased me

To think that our passion

Would be just one night.

I was impressed, as the evening grew longer.

You clung to virtue

As I held you tight.

Nothing, I thought would have given me pleasure

More than to be with you

Flesh unto skin.

But you had a different mission that evening,

Mountains of conquest,

Battles to win.

Men on the prowl are blinded by passion

Thinking the ladies will

Fall for their pitch.

But don't underestimate the wiles of a woman

In playing the old game of

Bait and switch.
