The warmth of summer sun has faded
Now the abyss of night encroaches
Shrouding the forgotten corners of the world
From the innocent eyes of honest folk
The burbling sounds of life fade
Replaced by the scream of silence
The ringing in your ears.

This is her Kingdom.

The stifling stillness is shattered
Punctured by the clockwork countdown
The click of heels
Click, click, click, click
The sound that captures you
Entraps and captivates you
Is the sound that shackles you.

She is Sin.

She welcomes you with a giggle
Ruby lips curled with radiant delight
Creasing her fair and flawless flesh.

She bathes in the aura of a golden mane
Surrounded by swishing scarlet silks

She beckons you close, with a single finger
Her sultry whisper enchants you
As if she could not, alone.

Run.
She is Sin.

She comes for you, this night
To turn you from the righteous path
Lead astray your carnal urges
And take from you
What she craves most.

Mind, body
And especially your soul
All that you are
Now belongs to her.

She is Sin.

You cannot run, nor hide
From the gleam of Medusa’s stare
Nor resist the curve and sway
Of Aphrodite’s envy
As you’re taken now to the gates of Hades
Beyond the reach of man
And Gods.

She is the myths you write
The histories you record
All your fears and nightmares
Every dream and dark desire.

She is Sin.

She is the cry in the night
The animal within
The deepest recesses of your mind
The pure, primordial passion.

You will never know her kind again
Never savour flesh
So succulent and sinful
Never taste one
More precious and prohibited.

For she is the forbidden fruit
The Temptation itself
Untamed by man, God or devils
Unchained and unleashed
Upon you, tonight.
