Poem: Temptations

Like a drop of honey

On the petals of life

She is my fantasy

I am tempted to lick my luck

Let my palate be free

To taste the forbidden fruit

Hold your thoughts

Do not curse me

For my erect pose

I am a man of my word

Ever ready to undo

The twisted knot in my heart

Let my desire flow

Into the petals of her being

Let the ecstasy of our love

Be our sweet nectar
