    Pleasure
    Pleasure is sweet.
    pleasure is fine,
    but sometimes costs more than quarters and dimes.

    Pleasure is joy.
    pleasure is pain,
    if you're willing to suffer, the pleasure in gain.

    Pleasure is quality.
    pleasure is free,
    but, careful, pleasure can place death's hook in your teeth.

    Pleasure for you
    is not pleasure for me.
    What's dust before my eyes may be your fantasy.

    The bible says: "Every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lusts and enticed. And when lust is conceived, it bringeth forth sin, and sis when it is finished bringeth forth death. Good job, J.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
