Like a Lion, so predaceous,
You are wild, and so curvaceous.
always stuck in consternation
or slipping up over trepidation.
Beautiful, and so exotic
erogenous, with all erotic
One… two, then Erotica Symphony
you have me spinning, indefinitely.
You provoke my inner demon
You are like a Sextus screaming
like a shamanic intuitive healer
you are a resourceful killer.
If you leave, I get withdrawal,
you tempt me, with your wicked call
one day, shall you reign me no more
I will be void, down to the core.
Florida’s views ever so spacious
Trees dropping flowers, so audacious
Covering paths, looking vivacious
Tip toe carefully, ever gracious
Cavorting ducks, feeling flirtatious
Breeding instincts, ever tenacious
Nests of flowers, softly herbaceous
Alligators glide hugely predaceous
Rolling fish always voracious
Fishermen’s lures completely fallacious
Silence of space
broken by a ships' roar
across the expanse
to dock at the stations' shore
while the unidentified flying
hover nearby in their quiet craft
objecting, "They can not come here!"
Not to our corner of Milky ... no!
no earthlings must stray
for they come only to prey!
We must keep the universe pristine
and these humans never trust
with their predaceous lust
for our bauxite, uranite,
calcite, pyrite ... right! right!
"Not in my back yard!" cried
the saucer-eyed leader.
Let them stay on their blue sphere!
Get this ark in gear ...
its time once again
to let them know we're here
in the neighborhood!
