Lust
A concubine, harlot, and a mistress
to us all
Enticing us with her beauty
seducing men and women
to do her biding
leading us astray into the depths
of perversion
with blurred vision we follow her every
command
Not knowing that her cabal with Greed,
Pride, Hatred, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, Anger,
and Ignorance
ends with our destruction.
