THE SEDUCTRESS

And as per NWCU's challenge, this piece came as bits and pieces of other lost and nigh forgotten notebook starts, stops, fizzled brain farts.
 
 
With blood-red lips and wanton Kiss of Death
And piercing eyes of blue-gray steel,
She held his captured stare
Against his will.

So close she stood, he felt his capture’s breath
And dreamed of drinking from her well
Of lusts without one care
Of good or ill.

The woman warrior armed with nature’s charms
Rent teeth into his naked flesh
And drank his anguished cries—
Sweet resonant.

The beauty with her heart in Satan’s arms
And soul in Hellfire’s glowing ash
Seduced him with her lies
And passion’s want.
