Luring Lust

Oh, luring lust, 

Your trail of gratifying sensual rewards 


Never 
 

Could lead, onto the sanctified highway 

Of divine bliss!

So true Demetrios. Wonderful Epigram. It's lack of fulfillment that keeps us leering. And all those sex ads that keep appearing. :) Peace. :)

Many travel down this path and as a result it has become a highway taking people nowhere fast.

No, of course not, in fact those two go in opposite directions. For that within that which is sanctioned by God himself is called by another name - desire. Love this, sire. A 7. :D Kim

Lust is powerful, but...it can be overcome. The secret is in your last line...Divine power. If we but ask...that is. Lovely write, my dear sweet poet. Hugs
