Kristen Bruni Poet Rhyme

Tease Me

Derives from Burlesco
Mockery, ridicule or joke!
A change of meaning now?
I think sexy fits better folks. 

Girls putting on silk hose
An artists paint to paper.
La femme fatal.
They peek behind velvet draper.

Like a slow day moving
Then rapidly comes the night.
They tease you with their bodies
Yet with oh such slight.

A life dance with such soul
Old school at its best.
Keeping you entranced
Even while fully dressed.

Canned heat that slowly rises
Above the lookers on.
Burlesque is a talent
Brains mixed with brawn.

Carolyn Devonshire April 10, 2011 at 11:46 AM Yes, "sexy" is a good way to describe burlesque, Kristen. Love the line that says "Canned heat that slowly rises." Very cool image here. Best wishes in the Burlesque Contest! For your new contest, I'm still trying to decide which style of music I like best. I really love so many types. Quite a challenge. Have a great Sunday! Carolyn
