the heels shift your weight
just right
causing your lower back
to arch so,
forcing your ample breasts
and firm buttocks
to both thrust upward

your pale skin
working to highlight
your jet black hair
and supple lips
painted bright red

each step a graceful stretch
as your entire body undulates,
hips swaying with the precision
of a pendulum
hair bobbing at your shoulders
as you go

your eyes almost make me want to believe
that what they are saying
is the truth...

...and then you opened your mouth
all that practice and poise
all that seduction
gone in a sentence
