Spell of a stranger The sprout of momentary illusion, the voyage of a derelict dream in place of a lie, the lure of April, the deceit of May concertized in December, in wintry snow, mocked, miscarriages of a well worn organ, the grin of February, suspended in September, the burden of unconquered Lust, the armies of censorial secret "bedders", begging for the abandoned rottenness on my path, obsequious frenzy of the hasty oath at Ikoyi, the stealthily lure of a defiled bed before the oath, the desperation of "a wanna be" by crook, hurried by the mascara coated looks of a postponed dowried hariotery, A bedfellow from the red zone, an unrepentant Gomer, The armies of bias exes overwhelmed the gaze with suspicions, compelling through diurnal and surreptitious escapades in dark corners, allured by unfinished lust, to the city centre for a quickie, And myriads of men hides in ambuscade save one, with threats of kill for suspending their “off home” secret lush The public mistress unfit for their homes, Yet suited for their Lust by turns she warmed our beds they say' purloined for your Fall of a few days, The bawd roamed unrestrained, 'Don't talk to me' she says. Unbridled concupiscence her forte, forty plus years in the trade, well versed in the art The sneaky nights, the secret calls, the Stygian services, and countless gift of libidinous frivolities. Yet their victim must remain mute, as truly the drama unfolded , all appeal rebuffed by arrogance, as they taunt with permissive perverse Laws convinced on the first day. Converse for four weeks, conscripted in one week “conbedded” on arrival in same day, Correction of a fool, concluded at the Court. Then in retrospect, Delilah revived.
