Jezebel
by Soulo Jacob BourgeauJohnny lured by lust
framed by JezebelÂ’s kiss, a
patsy for her sins
01/20/2006
Author's Note: Inspired by "Angry Johnny" by Poe. Jezebel represents several women I’ve dated – the ones with all the right kinds of wrong.
(In fairness to Bonnie, I added the author's note AFTER her comment. Sorry, hon!)
