Succumb (Aphrodite's lure)
Succumb
Overcome and overwhelmed
Unable to resist
Steamrolled and trampled on
Dark passions have manifest and spawn
Temptations take over the righteous man's morals
Religious and pious once
His knee no longer bends for the Almighty
But for Her; his beloved Aphrodite
She commands his will
Leads him on a string
But willingly he goes
Like the Tarot's fool his own destruction he sows
Trading for the pleasures of the flesh
A mere moments relief
The price... the essence of his being
Eternally Her slave there will be no fleeing

Amazing poem mate. We are slaves indeed :)
Thank you... It's a natural drive in men I suppose. It's a constant struggle though in today's modern world.
