Deceptive Intentions

Bitches Brew

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished 12 months ago 1 min read

hello - welcome to dinner

sit down, have some tea

it's a brew made for sinners

featuring the best parts of me

a little taste of madness

a splash or two, you'll go wild

mixed together, on canvas

it's ok, try some, child

your fingers may tingle

your taste buds explode

the buzz only lingers

while the glass is still cold

so, drink up, time is fleeting

the clock keeps things moving along

it's VIP only, seating

the offer won't last too long

I have deceptive intentions

but you'll enjoy the ride

there is no need for confessions

pleasure is served on the side

the main course is delightful

exotic and offbeat

if you wanted conventional

then you want nothing from me

For what I have to offer

you can't find somewhere else

I am the unpublished author

when you want to be someone else

so, drink up the potion

or be on your way

speak the words that need spoken

tell me...what do you say?

    Captivating, sell crafted (as usual 😊😊) and it floats along with your perfect rhyme. Hauntingly beautiful and I think the image rally sits the scene very nicely. Great job Kelli.

  • I'll drink it all up hehehehe. Loved your poem!
