    I saw you baby,
    thinking your x-ray eyes
    were disguised, that your glare
    would pass by as a passing glance,
    hidden by the distance between you and I,
    but oh no, I got your kind memorized,
    yeah, plus I recognize that perfume
    drifting across this dirty local:
    wild Arabian myrrh
    like a beckoning belly-dancer
    dressed in sheer pastels,
    bells on her ankles and wrists
    ringing in harmless feminine guile.
    yeah, I seen that style.

    Pull on that cigarette one more time
    like it’s me and you’re benign,
    then shake your hips and hike your hem
    and don’t you dare pretend, yeah,
    that those horns weren’t there to begin,
    pushing your pretty curls aside
    cos honey, yeah, I know your kind;
    I’ve slept with the antichrist’s concubine

    and that horned bitch acted just like you,
    promising the world’s wildest ride,
    that we’d rise up into andromeda, yeah,
    to live like Olympian gods, yeah
    and sleep in the sweet folds
    of space/time fabric.

    So don’t come over here
    with your honey-suckle tongue,
    your black-widow breath,
    your basilisk eyes,
    cos yeah, I know your kind.


    *I don't really know how good this is, since it was just written and I'm on cold medicine, which makes me go loopy. Anyway, yeah...

    I think this has a wicked barb to it. It's decadent, bitter smelling and sexy. NOt your greatest but an indulgent ride anyways.

    i LOVE it!!!

    especially:

    "then shake your hips and hike your hem
    and don’t you dare pretend, yeah,
    that those horns weren’t there to begin,
    pushing your pretty curls aside
    cos honey, yeah, I know your kind;
    I’ve slept with the antichrist’s concubine."

    *feels around for her devil-horns*
