The Devil's Bride

A poem about prostitution.The meaning is a bit complex.

The Devil 's Bride

Red dress and bloody lips,
Waving in a sultry dance,
Not knowing what will happen,
She was in such a trance,

A figure entered through the gate,
With a grin on his face,
His dark eyes following her gait,
The devil was enthralled by her grace,

Captivated by her vestal beauty,
The devil beseeched her to a dance,
She was illuded by his charms,
By the idyllic feeling of romance,

Their dance capturing everybody's gaze,
The scene blurred by a mysterious haze,

Holding her frail body,
The devil knew it was time,
Fire swallowed them,Oh Lordy!
Leaving neither a penny nor a dime,

Searched the people on their legs,
Searched the people on their rides,
But nobody knew that She,
Had become the " Devil 's Bride "
