Take the Bait and run
Daylight breath in my face like primrose blooming in spring sending fumes all over the place and I opened my mouth and gasp for breath I twist and turn a dozen times before I could drag myself out of bed but I made one final leap and toss the pillow in the street and break the sleep deficit...

The Siren Bait
Yo-ho, all together Hoist the colors high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die- Sail the seas, calm or rugged See what lies underneath Creatures of old, the ship they drugged To the cold of the sea, beneath Among the men, there was a treasure Diamond in the rough- Chased by men, for their pleasure Till she had had, enough In the waves, conscious faded There...

She's led legions of men to utter destruction like a...

Title 2/ BAIT Quote: Better to shun the bait than struggle in the snare. William Blake The transiting sun shines on you deceptively, spreads shifting spectrum in chameleon sky, the masked faces designed by innate ingenious craft, walk you baited on the golden garden’s blind pathway.

“Better to shun the bait than struggle in the snare” William Blake With a fragile earth warm, I lure my Labeo rohita. Minute minnows manage many magical Mackerels. Shrimps attract snapper, arowana, and tilapia. Aren't baits also in the form of bread, biscuits, and bagels? Best cows as baits to lions, fleshy fawns as baits to tigers Live dogs lure the...
