"THE LADY IN BLACK" (Copyright 2001 by: MARK V SHELDON The Lady In Black reads her men front to back through a dark silken veil eyes know more than their tale for her windows of soul exude mystic control over men trapped in stare mesmerized by the flare of a fire which burns with desire and turns a hypnotic allure to a lust they endure even time must stand still when her eyes force their will framed by scarf and by shawl onyx gems watch them fall for control they all lack not The Lady In Black |

Wow....a really wonderful piece... But don't you think you are being unfair?  Wait for my other ladies clad in other colors....  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

Those poor women in Afghan... if only they knew what they lacked... only a taste of freedom would turn their cheeks to the Taliban and the other extremists. That's what this reminded me of. I thought the prose was well-written, and hoo-boy the topic...it may not have been what you had in mind, though... ^_^ LadySofia |

Oh I love to wear black clothes, it's so mysterious yet sexy! Not all black like gothic, but maybe like black pants with black boots and a bright colored top. : ) |

My Melody... unfair? To whom? The particular lady of my poem wears black for a reason -- that's not to say that ALL ladies who wear black would choose to be like "Carmen" or "Delilah"... And, if you think about it, this poem could actually be "unfair" to the males -- painting them as such "washcloths"... LadySofia: interesting interpretation... Although your tangent was not my conscious intent, I think you have a valid point. Poetry has not only the author's intent but also the reader's decipher. Thanks for the thoughts! Thank you, Sandra. I don't know that it's "nice" though... Hey there, Nancy -- glad you visited! Hi Sunshine: thanks for the warm rays! RosePetal: Yummy.  -MVS "Your focus determines your reality." --Qui-Gon from The Phantom Menace |
