The ramblings of a madwoman

nonsense

Don't get too close,

You might not like what you find;

I've spent my life disguising my sins,

I’ve built places for my demons to hide.

Don't say I didn't warn ya,

‘Cause I really did try.

You'll fall under my spell one way or another.

And when you do I'll take pleasure delving in to your vast mind.

An attraction of sorts,

I have an aura about me that awakens the flesh.

Makes your skin crawl,

And makes your heart race,

But oh, danger is a most seductive temptress,

Don’t be surprised if I pull you in--

Not nonsense at all miss minnie ;)
If I understand this does that make me a madman - but i think thats already a matter of record lol.
This is such a playful temptation that one feels its a guilty pleasure just reading it.
It reminded me of that poem - 'Come into my parlour said the spider to the fly...'
Pure class Niyia.

In a way i wanted to lull the reader in to a trance, this poem i wrote in a lyrical style, it almost sounds like i'm casting a spell over the reader. My purpose was to daze the audience so that when they get to the last line, they realize that without even noticing i did indeed ensnare them with my words.. "But oh, danger is a most seductive temptress, Don’t be surprised if I pull you in--"
Your reviews are always welcomed, thank-you!

Well the fact that it recalled that poem to me - which I always remember being read by teachers in a spooky hypnotic kind of way means you fired off the memories associated with those trance -like readings of my childhood. So... mission accomplished, I think.
Your welcome Niyia.

[Cherret Leakey]

Awesome.
I have been struggling to bring out a poem on the same topic but seeing yours, I rest my case, burrying my scribbles 6 feet under.

The words of a dark succubus to its victim. A warning that will surely tempt anyone to experience the pleasures promised.

Wonderful

The world is too sane if you ask me......a little bit of craziness is just what the doctor ordered....:)

Great poetry!

So the reader is now stuck in the web......-are there any second chances? ;)

[Ink Seductress]

Not a chance ;)

[-inactive now-]

This one's awesome, danger is a seductive temptress indeed. Kinda reminds me of that myth about the sailors and the sirens.

[Ink Seductress]

Thank you :)

You know how to get the reader's attention and create mystery and interest.

[Thomas Edward 'Timothy'..]
