National Poetry Month - day 21
bella donna dances
among burning branches and bone
her loves, cut from brimstone,
gaze upon her moonstone necklace,
seek to cut to the chase
her leather and her lace they seek
she dances. her mystique,
gripping the hearts of weak lovers,
nothing more than adders,
rich men like beggars for chances
to rise from the ashes
their lust consumes, blazes, then fades

my first experiment with a Vietnamese poetry form called 'luc bat.' Comments are appreciated.
