As if an animal in heat
you wait and wonder
attracting, baiting,
slowly pulling me under.

Never
thought of the consequences
before I opened my eyes,
the chain of sequences
that lead to my demise.

As a victim in peril,
I played the part well
whining, crying,
anything to close the sell

Trapped
in the spell of your pheromones
I thought of moon-drenched lovers
while listening to the sound of your moans
echoing from under the covers

Wow...leaves me speechless...and breathless!

Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

WHOOOOOO!!! Damn. I think I burned my eyes on this one. I LIKE it! This is also an excellent use of FONT. Very good choice.

Unfortunately, this one has a rather atrocious rhythm to it. I'm got a longer crititiqe that I'll be emailing you, but all and all I liked it!

I believe the most important component of a poem is rhythm. Rhythm is the heartbeat of a poem. It is what makes poetry poetry.
