Cologne & Crime

 Pretty, petty thief

He slips your senses with his smile
whips your will with his wiles
and puts your power in his pocket

A mating misdemeanor
becomes
a ferocious, feral felony

He leaves
breaking and exiting
You find he's gone
with your heart in his hat

You're hollow and homeless
left only with the scent
of his subtle seduction
and surprise savagery
stuck to your skin
