makin' eyes at the devil's thighs

sway of hips as she walks is serpentine
enticing eyes to emulate her oscillating spine
ah, and the hurt is worth it. watching her hands
in flick of wrist, and forked tongue fingertips dance

i know you. they told me about you
in hushed tones under sunday morning
said to watch out for girls like you

her words are suggestions of sentences
each a what if sparking questions
a million a minute, righteous heads
twist to cynical, she's labeled temptress
for entertaining my dormant inklings
i'm thinking how grand it is to think on other things
sideways glances and a flash of teeth

i know you. they told me about you
in hushed tones under sunday mornings
said to watch out for girls like you
i don't wanna so much as blink.
