Interesting


Interesting,
      was the man staring
at the painting with such enthrallment.
I went and stood beside him, curious,
he was attractive and very appealing,
and when he looked at me- I gave him my
     best come-hither look.
          oh, his voice was captivating . . .
I wanted to say something interesting,
something very thought-provoking,
to entrap him in my allurement,
     but I just said hello,
           I was riveted to him- intrigued.
Interesting,
     he smiled, amused
then said, the painting was spellbinding.
Oh, so charming and fascinating, he was,
I tried to appear beguiling- 
hoping he would take note of my beauty.
     He invited me for café,
          we had charisma, for sure,
our conversation was absorbing- 
He was so interesting and engrossing,
and I was compelled to touch his hand . . . 
Oh, when did I become a seducer?
     The thirst, lust and desire,
         was tantalizing and tempting-
Interesting.

Ah, BW, interesting how interest can lead us to become interested in the interesting.....Great take on the theme, the repetition of the word "interesting" a subtle hint of ...interest. Thanks for participating in the contest.
