A life of almost total bliss
Is traded for her fatal kiss
Her practised stylish whispered hiss
For snakey there's no sin
Wrapped up against the constant frost
A tax tops up the priceless cost
A heart that breaks for children lost
For snakey there's no sin
She prays to find another way
Forgets about the price to pay
In seedy bars is where she'll stay
For snakey there's no sin
The men will come and they will go
Mere extras in her talent show
The friend had left but not the foe
For snakey there's no sin
She turned her head to see he stayed
The only one who never paid
She let herself be gently swayed
When snakey shed her skin

Ah, I have a sister like this, I do find this incredibly sad how a women can manipulate her way through life and I often wonder if some even realize they are doing it, but then it's the same way for men, my first love was.like this. I learnt so much from him, I was lucky never to have married him or have children. But I do feel for men and women who go that much further hoping it's love and it turns out to be a poetry book. ❤️
No harm in hoping eh Teddy

I love the way you have framed the profile of one who seems to need constant gratification/validation. Who knows why they do it, but it seems she's stumbled upon the one person who holds the key. Great write my friend!
Very kind Bella
