Temptation
Temptation
You tempt me to indulge
In the secret vaults of your life,
Like Shakespeare did
And
Was tempted to be tempted
His works included
Temptation
As a thrust
Which in many plays he did do
So do you challenge me?
Alike to go to a bank
And
See how much money can tempt me
Or
Go to a choc-bar
And ask for goodies chocks
And
Hold my breath for want of temptation
Or
You still want me to become a voyeur
viewing men and women
down the stores
And
vie for as many?
Well friend there ain’t any
Limit for temptation
But as many thoughts cross my mind
I feel shy,
Why on earth did you tempt me?
To write poetry
On this tempt for thee.

I challenge you to re-write
I challenge you to re-write this poem. Make it challenging and tempting to the reader.
The beginning and end are good, however, the middle left me quite...ho...hum...
