"How can they see with sequins in their eyes?"
One of my favourite lines from the musical "Chicago". Give me anything.
Razzle Dazzle (Like Eve)
We find
little fault
with the mouth
that bit
the apple
when the lips
bowed and juicy
rival the yield
Does it cease
to matter
the message
candy-coated
in a poison
so sweet
you can
no longer
tell the difference?
Beauty has
beguiled the eye
longer than
our tongue
has tasted
the forsaken truth
its a miracle
at all
that we
even set foot
beyond Paradise
when her
ripe fruits
keep us
infatuated with
the wretched tree.
