Notes About The Poem

10/27 Sassy Halloween Artwork

Unrestrained

irresistible and
sexually alluring
a wanton vixen
entices with candy lust
fire sparkling in her eyes...
he greedily follows her
into the shadows of
an eerie misty night, 
down the narrow
winding path of no return...

This is one outstanding poem, Paul. I loved the line ... a wanton vixen entices with candy lust fire sparkling in her eyes. Great ending too. Makes you think twice about being retinal allured. Cool muse poetry. Love and best wishes for the coming holidays.

Hi Paul, Enjoyed this poem! Fantasies can be transferred to our poetry. Hard to resist this image though! The only obstacle holding one back would be the sobering thought of no return! Well written, Warm regards, Jennifer.

Greedy lust has been a tempting downfall for many. Your dark sensual imagery aptly illustrates how one can become lost in the lust for lust.. your verses illuminate, so enticingly, the naughty side of human nature, Paul. Warmest wishes and hugs my dear friend.. ~Susan

Lust, greed and temptation are not easy to deal with, dear Susan! What we try avoiding in real life gets transferred over to our poetry. Thank you for your most delightful comments. Warm regards & hugs // paul
