sweltering and hazy

ration we deride

skin under hands

there is peril in pride


sultry heir

to lust's grand design

beg of me

bid me to try


simpering halo

mouth so divine

crave and unchain

to restrain is a crime


secretive and heralding

Is desire's gilded bride

with mortal rope

which all men are tied.
