Analysis of The attractive rib of deceit
Seduction lured him on her bed
Roses were her sign of death
The beauty can never be compared
Even the maidens will drown in despair
"Come to me my love ", don't hesitate
Your touch is better than every man
Since my husband is away,
Let me embalm you to your grave
To show the goodness of my cold heart "Jezebel "
I warn you,it's your last pleasure for today
Do whatever you can, "my love"
Your time is just the dawn of day
As you yearn for me,
Agony will follow you everywhere
I treat your day with reverence
Let your unconditional love,take me places
As I leave you quoted in my sins,
My poison will never make you regret it!

About this poem
This poem is about a man who falls prey to a woman's seductive ways,and ends up being ignorant of the possible consequences of his actions, its a battle between lust and righteousness.A situation whereby the bodily desires are bound to win because of strategy
