Sonnet: Romeo and Juliet
The love of love only sees desire,
Desire, dangerous as a harp or song,
That takes young sailors to inquire
Fooling them to come along.
Leading them forwards like sheep to shepherd,
Like a fawn,
Caught as quick by a leopard,
That they are so easily drawn.
But feathered feet draw his doom,
Jagged, sharp teeth spell death for him,
These beautiful women live to consume,
Their appearance looking quite grim
For beauty may be another lie
To each, his own, a lovers eye.
