I see the way you look at me
With lust in your eyes
No real love to be found there
Underneath your disguise
And I’m tired of being the girl
Who says she doesn’t care
When nobody ever sees her
As if she’s really there
I can fulfill all your fantasies
But my true worth you’ll never see
As long as you keep looking
At the outside of me

Pearl was a pistol
Janezza was a jerk
Glenda was a grumpy ol’ git
Who drove everyone berserk
Nilda was the nice one
But Irma drove her insane
And because of Henrietta’s hexes
Neither one now has a brain
Daniella was a devil
And yet she was always liked the best
But mostly only by male devils
Who liked staring at her chest
Wanda was the youngest witch
She’d bring warlocks home each day
But because of her venereal diseases
She could never get any of them to stay
Tilly was the tallest
Until Shirley shot right past
Now they’re both so old they’re shrinking
And wondering how life went by so fast
Lastly there was Lily
The prettiest witch of all
Until one day her wand exploded
Causing bits of her to be strewn across the wall
The cobweb cloaked coven has since retired
Put up their brooms and stored away their wands
And if you ever want to find them
You’ll have to go looking beyond the beyond
But be careful if you go there
For those old biddies they aren’t so sweet
And if you visit them for Halloween
You may just get a trick instead of a treat

For a month of writing prompts, click here; The cobweb cloaked coven
She was a real tasty candy apple treat
Loved by all the men she’d often meet
Subtly sexy and radiating desire
Just what every man sought, wanted, and required
But there was a secret which she kept hidden
Something about her, so temptingly forbidden
One nip from her and they’d finally understand
Vampires always have the upper hand

Plump and provocative
Was all he ever saw
Her luscious curves
Were the only real draw
He said he cared for her
And wanted her for his own
Then another woman appeared
And his cover was blown

Writing prompt: Plump and provocative
Swept away
By a passionate kiss
One she knew
She didn’t dare resist
Taken under
Completely by surprise
A perfect love
Reflected in her eyes
Never before
Had she felt such heat
Finally a man
Who made her feel complete
Lost in the depths
Of his charming smile
She knew this flame
Was completely worthwhile
Left breathless and wanting
Their impassioned eyes meet
Who was this handsome stranger
Who’d swept her off her feet
Putting the romance novel down
She continues with her housecleaning
Everyone wants to know
Why suddenly she’s beaming
