Confessions

by goddess-glamourpuss   Sep 24, 2007


I slip into my second skin
Deft brush strokes
Of subtle war paint
Transform
The illusion is complete

With artful grace
I tease the senses
You may believe yourself the charmer
Piping the tune
Master of the dance

Never forget
I am the snake
Striking with infallible speed
At heart
and wallet

Perhaps it would alarm you to know
That during private show
It is YOU appearing naked
Laid bare by lascivious stare
Whilst I am cloaked
in Gaia's grace

Your departure is marked
By stealth and shadow
Furtive glances
Shame
I walk out with head held high
Pockets full
Job well done

    Wow. what can i say, it was amazing.
    the imagery that your words create
    is simply amazing. i thought it was
    great and you portrayed the point
    beautifully. i prefer rhyming poems
    but it was awesome. nicely done 5/5

    I thought it was very good. It's an interesting poem. I'm not sure if it's a 4 or a 5. I think it's more of a 5. I usually like the rhyming poems better but you got away with it because of the words and story you told. Very well done.
