Dressed in desire

129 7 5
                                    

Temptation weaving, elegant and bright,
Faithfully tied in vermilion lace;
Hedonistic; her body sways this night,
Her heart a blade of ribbons tied in place:
Her deathly dancing of lustful deceit,
Intoxicated by devious eyes;
Passionate limbs slinking, in shadows meet;
Devout and demanding in her demise:
Soft hands embracing binds of silver sin;
Red petals raining from her baneful lips,
Rivers of languid silk and teasing skin
Lain in vain, under her blood wine eclipse,
Harkening back to seething scarlet air,
Consumed and chained in her bleeding affair.

(Shakespearean sonnet - ABAB CDCD EFEF GG)
