A beast more than beauty, rather a dragon emitting fire, wonderfully analysed, and well described poem.

She has the pouty lips of a movie star but she lacks inner virtues! I find this peculiar character in some women at you have meticulously observed! A brilliant write that is worth reading again and again! Stay blessed!

She could unmake a hero/By the twist of her tongue/When she draws her lipstick/In her fine slightly parted lips......great expression! A brilliant poem! My pleasure revisiting this wonderful work!

She flatters you With all the nicest words on earth Seasons them with mint and rosemary Yet, they act as razorblades And cut you into pieces. An amazing stanza of a wonderful poem.

There are many such people living around us who wield their tongue to inject poison. Through this poem the poet is trying to give the message that we should use our tongue not to demean others but to encourage others and give them comfort and love and the feeling that we do care! A splendid write, Rose Marie.This poem is beautifully constructed. The delineation of the character is brilliantly done.

Some are paragons of beauty! But under the veneer of an attractive outward appearance, they have a venomous nature which manifests itself out through their tongue. They use their tongue as a weapon to slander others. They have no qualms over how they shatter another's good name and popularity!

The first stanza of this poem has special attraction that I have come for re reading. The lines of first stanza are as below......... She has the pouty lips Of a movie star Lips that resemble The Cupid's bow And the magic smile Of Mona Lisa. Thank you dear madam, my pleasure reading it time and again.10

But her mouth Is governed by the laws of hatred Deceit and lies She utters evil Anopheles mosquitoes Fly from her sexy orifice.........character doesn't depend upon beauty. An ugly face may have good character. Here a woman having beauty face, pouty lip and smile of Monalisa has no good character and is related to. I quote here....... Men lose their minds Succumb to her trap. The skill of poetess in inscription here is highly appreciated.

Character of a man is reflected in his words, how much he may try to speak the beautiful words, unconsciously he speaks a few words that expose his real character. A nice poem.

She could unmake a hero By the twist of her tongue When she draws her lipstick In her fine slightly parted lips Men lose their minds Succumb to her trap. Such a lovely theme and so great skill. Thanks for sharing the poem Rose Marie. 10+++

It's a typical poem that laudably articulates the character of a person which could be so elusive! Lips resemble 'The Cupid's bow'....the smile is as beautiful as we find in ' Mona Lisa'! It's a very organized piece of poetry that creates a lot of interest in reader's mind to move to the next line what you are going to express! Really, I admire penning style! (10)
