The Syncopated Imp

from a challenge to use a random set of unconnected words in a poem) The syncopated rhythms of my infatuation with you have left an indelible mark on my metrical heart. I am M'Adam to your "Y'ves," biting into the luscious apple of temptation, while Lust, with his pitchfork, prods us from behind.
