My 666th poem..lol! This poem is for women trapped in controlling relationships

Seduces the benighted then lifts the Veil to reveal his Janus face; a demon Entrapping lost souls in his clutches Never fall under his spell. Beware! Go confidently with your gut instincts And trust it blindly. Don't be... Lulled into the tangled web of the devil Incarnate. Refuse to surrender to his control. Submitted for...

I am startled when I realize the most fervent supporters of a horrible politician or con-artist do not hear anything he says at all. "Run like hell!" I want to say, yet I know they will not hear me. Thank you for this one, Edward.
