    Poem Commentary

    Sometimes we must admit that we feel simply and delightfully evil.

    Curious Motives

     I am deception at it finest,
    No I can never tell a lie,
    So people tend to trust me,
    This simple devil in disguise.
    And though I hold my tongue
    I can't always bare it's leash
    And often it is sharper
    Than the bite of these teeth
    Hidden are my motives,
    Though disappointed you may be
    I am torn in two directions
    Though my plan you'll never see
    To throw them from the heights
    Or too pull them from the ledge?
    Yes, I would save you in an instance
    But first I want to see you beg
    My heart has frozen over
    Or perhaps ripped right from this chest
    But I warn, be careful of my curiosity
    That's what motivates me best

    I noticed typo's. This probably should not have been entered into the weekly contest.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
