Temptress

Once concealed like 
the devil behind the 
serpent she is.

No!, not even an inch 
did i know of what 
lies between her 
bamboo legs.

With lips as that of an 
angelic maiden she 
kissed, saying nothing 
else i accepted 
comfort like cold 
porage.

She hugs better than 
a lover, cuddle so tight 
than a mother.

But her motive was 
vile same as those of 
lost eden,her actions 
bears it forth.

 My memories said to 
me, tainting your 
image was her 
mission, soiling your 
name her vision,down 
to your rising 
fame ,her proffesion.

Alas! I recall this is 
but the lips of a 
temptress.
