Seduction of the Beast (Erica)

A sweetness
   pours out of her pores
that pulls my quill
from the ma cab,
teasing my senses,
causing my heart to beat again.

The radiance
   of her smile
claws at me
   driving my
       bestial heart
into a frenzy
    bringing back
my fight for control
              (of myself),
her slender curves
        bite into
the back of my neck
driving me to a madness
    that I barely
           have a hold on.
