The better to see you with~

A Poem by Frieda P

You bit into
 the meat of me
spit me out 
   you didn't realize
this leo lioness
 has sharpened claws
thought yourself,
   prettier too                              
as you puffed
  your wide chest
I left a gap
  wide enough
for another
 foolish woman
who follows me
 to actually see
what's behind
  those chops
you lick so
methodically

"for another

foolish woman

who follows me

to actually see

what's behind

those chops

methodically"
I take this as a jab of sorts or a victory sign at someone who thought he, she can hurt you with their claws or as I take it as insults and you proved to them you are the winner at the end for you can be a lioness...A powerful write...Thank you for sharing...:)

Well take that she said. You do have a fine way of describing a woman scorned Frieda. ;)

Very nicely written, Frieda. I like the metaphors used here, the woman strong enough to toss away the man who brings her pain. The problem with some men is that they think they can have anyone and do anything with them. Fortunately, they don't realize that all of them will one day encounter their own "lioness" who will show them their place. Excellent poem!

Lions are best served cold? ha. for breakfast maybe.

Sounds like thoughts of betrayal, unless I miss my mark. Nice done. And the pic is awesome!

Whew! this one is really so what we say "melodramatic" Its like some fairy tale. This is remarkable, I loved it. I can't say i didn't like this one - lol kidding (I need Fredia's review on my poem though)
Jokes apart this is really seductive and picture is great well that beast is doing naughty thing :P
I loved the part which you mentioned wide chest of this beast and she likes it :)
Excellent work Freida :)

Test the waters and you will find the true nature of the beast. Pride and arrogance will never win the day. Real lions act and react like this to the tee. Nature often reveals truths that we humans often deny.
A wonderful metaphor can be drawn from this great piece. Thank you for sharing it.

Today seems to be the day of the Lion. Pfft. What's a little mangy wolf. Great write really liked the graphic nature of this one.

Hah - as a fellow Leo I can heartedly agree with the whole poem and its warning to non-Leos. ;)

Loved this Freida
