Temptress Poem by Melanie Emikohe

Temptress

Rating: 5.0


It is not by the miles or the seas
that build walls between us.
When I think of your place
and the looks of the guests
who sit and drink on your table,
I mock and scorn my town.

But I have an intense feeling
that we're essentially the same,
even though you're too far
and your spoons are gold.
I want to seduce you with words
that I can afford, if nothing else.
