Coiled Lips

by Angie   Mar 13, 2007


Coiled Lips

she roams among the shadows
under the darkness of night
dressed in a black velvet gown
creating a dazzling sight

with long beautiful soft hair
the color of freshly fallen snow
luscious mouth painted ruby red
along with her fingers and toes

eyes a tantalizing deep blue
a slight crook to her slender nose
she hunts silently for her next victim
craving that succulent juicy flow

high heels click upon the cobble stone
as the fog rolls in off the bay
with the taste of blood on her coiled lips
pointy fangs hungrily meet their prey

**Thank you Sunshine for tossing the title at me and giving me the inspiration to write this one**

    Oh wow, so haunting... The flow to this was fabulous and you perfectly chose your words.

    "eyes a tantalizing deep blue

    craving that succulent juicy flow"
