the harlot

this ring is bearing all the weight

of unadulterated love

yet still i yearn temptation

from the things unworthy of

 

my wicked mind

contrived in spite

a fantasy i crave

a selfish lack of self control

domestic life won't save 

 

the weight of sweet surrender

clouds its criminal intent

when lustful need, 

the red light beckons...

            fidelity's descent
