My sweet child
\nMy daughter
\nBe on guard
\nBe on guard of the man
\nWho plays on your heartstrings\u2026
\nNot with flirtatious smile
\nNor with flexed muscles
\nNot with devouring eyes
\nNor with intellectual prowess
\nOr clothes so fine\n

No, these you can resist
\nYou can set boundaries
\nAnd be done
\nThe threat, false alarms
\nTheir charm easily undone
\nYour defenses will withstand
\nThe groping hand
\nThe false charm
\nNo, don’t be alarmed\n

Oh, but child
\nMy precious sweet one
\nBe on your guard
\nI beg you
\nI implore
\nBe on your guard
\nFrom the man named, \u201cPOET\u201d
\nA man who wields words
\nWho crafts and designs them
\nLike a carpenter with wood…
\nWho makes them into jewels
\nWith a jeweler\u2019s touch…
\nWho makes them sweet delicacies
\nThat simply melt in your mouth\n

He can shape and design his words
\nTo fit your every need
\nHe writes down your dreams
\nAs though they were his own
\nHis words an homage
\nTo your beauty
\nYour form
\nThe light in your eyes
\nThe way you entice
\nYour captivating smile
\nYour dark tresses
\nCherry lips
\nOr the curve of your hips\n

BE ON GUARD
\nOh, dear one
\nBe on guard
\nFor he means to take you
\nTo sweep you away
\nIn the tide of beautiful rhymes
\nThe rise of fall of passion
\nMaking your body move in time
\nHe means to ensnare you
\nTo capture your soul
\nHe means to dominate
\nTo slowly undress
\nIntoxicate with his words
\nSo you forget common sense
\nHe wants you to eat from his hands
\nChoice morsels of love
\nWhile he whispers in your ear,
\n\u201cThere’s more where that came from.\u201d\n

My child
\nBe on guard
\nFor words cannot pay
\nYour rent or expenses
\nCannot save your day
\nWords won\u2019t be there
\nWhen you cry in the night
\nThey won\u2019t be able
\nTo turn on that light
\nWords won\u2019t be your lover
\nWith hands nice and slow
\nThat touch you in places
\nWords can never go\n

My child,
\nMy darling
\nListen to me
\nStay away from those poets
\nThey\u2019ve got potency
\nThey will woo and bewitch you
\nThrow fairy dust in your eyes
\nBut at the end of the day
\nOnly a few don\u2019t tell lies\n

My child, my sweet
\nGet a man who will be
\nTHERE IN PERSON
\nBODY and SOUL
\nWith hands that caress
\nAnd with eyes that speak
\nOf your body in that dress
\nSpoken words make you weak
\nWith lips that touch yours
\nThat say you\u2019re divine
\nThat lick from your navel
\nThat sweetest of wine
\nStay away from those poets
\nBe on Guard
\nSave your life!
\nFor a poet, my child
\nIs the greatest danger in life
\nThe greatest beauty
\nThe greatest dream
\nThe greatest heartache
\nThe greatest strife
\nBe on guard
\nBE ON GUARD
\nSAVE YOUR LIFE!\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
