Two Pair of Killer Heels

Assassins hot, two pair; black, red
strappy, feminine, slaying men
stilettos risqué; red drop-dead
peppered lust  hot shake of cayenne

strappy, feminine, slaying men
naughty ninjas; stilettos black
peppered lust  hot shake of cayenne -
beware palpitations' attack!

naughty ninjas, stilettos black
dainty daggers traipse teasingly
beware palpitations’ attack;
high-heels' vamp kills you pleasingly

dainty daggers traipse teasingly
stilettos risqué; red drop-dead
high-heels vamp kills you pleasingly
assassins hot, two pair; black, red.

Wearing stilettos is an art in itself; they enhance feet & legs, tease the imagination and are capable of stepping into the realm of fantasy! Stilettos can carry many a woman, but not all women can carry stilettos:) This Pantoum is quite a killer, Susan! No wonder it finished on the podium! ~ Warm regards // paul

Lol! You're right Paul, wearing stilettos is an art in itself..:)This was such a fun write to create, I just based it on two pair of heels out of my collection - I just love feminine shoes! To me, these sexy, strappy little numbers are works of art in themselves as well. I'm pleased that you enjoyed my poem my wonderful friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
