Venus of Dementia

Venus of Dementia

A Poem by John Stussy
"

Gotta love the ones that come out of nowhere!

"

 

 

Dark hair cascading down,

The sinister side

Of the goddess of seduction

Comes roaring to the foreground.

She walks the night readily,

Awakening the lustful wishes

Lying hidden in the chilled hearts

Of her midnight acolytes.

 

Hold me captive with the rest,

A victim in blissful abandon

To the many enticements

You present to your disciples.

Perfect pearly visage framed

With silken sable hair

Holds all intent and willing,

Servants to your carnal demands.

 

Do not let this temptation end.

Then you are held captive by her, along with the rest. It is almost as if, any that would lay eyes upon here would become enthralled victims of all her desires... that transition, sealed the deal for me on this piece. An elegant write...

Very sensual. You imagery was vivid although you mentioned her hair twice. I would have liked to have seen a little more description on more of her.
