The Devil in me April 2012

 

 

After all these years

all I've been through,

 after all the women

I've known Biblically

 and otherwise,

I still get shocked

when I hear her

 talk like that,

 not able to tell if

 it is deliberate or a tease,

 or her just trying to sound "with it"

 after having been with men

who expect what she says she does

for her to really do.

Sometimes over the phone

I can't tell if I am on one of

those 1-900 numbers where girls

(most likely old women)

talk dirty for a fee.

While she can't see me blushing

 I'm sure she knows I am,

 deep down to the roots of me,

 partly at the fact I like what I hear,

 feeling guilty at feeling attracted,

 wishing I really was the "little angel"

 my mother always said I was,

 when in truth, I never was,

 I just never admitted

how much of a devil I've become
