Femme Fatale
Within the clouds of wisdom
I find you in the rain
Touching my heart with merely a smile
Extinguishing all the pain
Some say you are a temptress
Yet I give to you my heart
I find your allure intriguing
Perfection in transcendent art
Some call you a magical enchantress
Dangerous to those unaware
Seducing and deadly to those of the light
Who live by the words of Voltaire
Danger is merely expression
Of adventure still yet to explore
Like finding the dagger you used in the crime
Still hidden in the back of the drawer
Perhaps you are more than Medusa
Turning my heart into stone
Maybe you’re here to capture my soul
Or maybe just seeds to be sown
I’ll follow you into your cavern
No matter how dark that it seems
Your intrigue will lead me to linger
With the temptress fulfilling my dreams
For danger is merely an expresson
Of adventure still yet to explore
My hunger for a taste of your passion
From the oleander soup that you pour
Some say that your femme fatale
A dangerous mortiferous affair…
But what if the fear is just love obsessed
As I sip from the slipper you wear?
Holding you close in your dungeon
Your dagger slipping into my heart
I wonder if you’ve loved me forever
As my consciousness slowly departs…

I fear for her safety should she hurt you. Your fans will rise up and slaughter the vixen.

Now that is certainly what I would call being supportive. Thank you! Kind of sounds like we have a co-authoring novel started here. Love the new gravatar… Merry Christmas!

If my overzealous fan stays away I may actually get to be me here one of these days

I’m certainly looking forward to that occurrence… if we can’t be ourselves on wordpress, we’re in trouble… but then, you’ll still have this fan… overzealous or otherwise…
Hope you’re having a wonderful Monday evening…
I do so love your comments!

Once again, I ask, who is this fantasy lady?
A good fantasy is often better than reality!

Maybe you bring out the best in her, Michael. Once again, you allow perfect moments to soar beyond reality. This…whom ever you were when you wrote this, looks so handsome on you.
Merry Christmas. xxx

Good morning Audrey Dawn – A very beautiful Christmas Eve to you and yours. I do believe that you have wandered upon a truth in your statement of “whomever you were when you wrote this”… I suppose that would bring cause to proclaim that I am the poet of many souls… yet, the lot of them seem to be overburdened with sadness and some just plain fools… but they do present some interesting words upon occasion… Now – if they would just let me get a few of my own words in once in a while…..
Merry Christmas to you also and thank you so much for our conversations over the past few months – I have enjoyed them dearly…
