She was beautiful beyond mere words
Her dress of black and white
With the exquisite diamond pattern
Clung as if skin to her
Her tongue began touching the sides of her mouth
A totally obscene gesture
Corners turned perpetually up
In a stoic smile
Her eyes were enchanting
Hypnotic, mesmerizing but cold
And the silence was so deafening
I could hear her breathing
She swayed sexily, slowly in a compromising
Sort of way
She undulated in front of me
With a come hither motion
That had me glued to the spot
And then
In the back of my mind
As if from a million miles away....
I heard the castanets
And through the haze in my mind
I saw her coiled, and ready to strike
I had never jumped so far back in my life
Snakes are beautiful, but deadly
Just like women
