AN ODE TO FRIEDA, by Chuck Shorter Subscribe to rss feed for Chuck Shorter

YOU AINT GONNA FOOL ME WOMAN
WITH YO SLEEK PHYSIQUE 'N'
"COME HITHER" SMILE.
I'VE HAD MORE THAN A PEEK
BEHIND THE FACADE.

HOW MANY INNOCENTS HAVE
YOU ENSLAVED,IN YOUR POSH,
DIM - LIT BOUDOUIR?
PRETTY YOUNG LASSES AND
MUSCLED HUNKS ALIKE?

STRANGE THAT NONE BUT ME
HAS EVER NOTICED, YOUR 
GLASSY,OSBIDINE EYES AND
SCORNFUL,SNEERING SMILE
COLD,EMOTIONLESS,UNCARING.

IS THIS WHY YOU HATE ME
OR SHOULD I SAY FEAR?
KNOWING I'LL NEVER BE ENTRAPPED
WITHIN YOUR DANK,MUSTY RECESSES,
UNLIKE THOSE HELPLESS FLIES BEFORE!

DONT PUSH YOUR LUCK LADY
OR YOU'LL MEET YOUR MAKER TOO SOON.
IF YOU'RE A SNAKE,REMEMBER
THERE ARE SCORPIONS TOO;
AND THEIR VENOM'S AS DEADLY AS YOURS

Wow! a very well written ominous poem/Ode To Frieda.This poem rings clear with warnings and threats... I like the style in which you have crafted this piece, and hope that "Frieda" is a metaphore of evil , and not a person. :) Love Glo
