Keats was labyrinthed

I am ensnared

by your snake eyes so enticing

🔥oh man! I love this!

P.S. Now I need to re-read that poem, I’d forgotten about it.

Which poem of Keats?

Honeygloom's avatar

It’s just called Lamia. It’s a pretty long one if I remember correctly.

Beauty's deadly charm,

Seduction hides the hunger,

Vampire's kiss unveiled.

Wow! I love “seduction hides the hunger.” Kind of like one hunger masking another… such a cool concept to play with🖤

Seeing, I devour

My eyes are mine no longer

What have you made me?

Eyes removed but can see

Entrapment

In a cage pregnant

To eat babies born with no hope.

A dark one today, I love the hint of predestination. Very interesting.

You should take a victory lap on the fact that you reply to each and every comment made here. Not every Substacker boasts that most-welcome trait. I've had that trait thrust upon me (hardly any comments to respond to.)

Pft, you’re taking time out of your day to entertain my nonsense, I’m extremely grateful for that. Of course I’m going to respond.

But it's helpful to me and others as well I'm sure. Forces me to write and a lot of the stuff I put up on IG.

That is what we call a win/win in the… um… biz😜

Any Genesis fans out there?

“Lamia lies down…

…on Broadway!” warns Gabriel

Collins opens maw.

😂 All I can hear is the Drifters.

Honeygloom's avatar

On Broadway, it’s a great song.

I mean, it could have been called Pancakes on My Eyes, you never know with these artist types.

Honeygloom's avatar

I know right!?

The she-serpent of Hell, according to some...

In medieval folklore serpents were considered quite wise…
