PLAYER

Parched and void of feelings
Clamoring to climb the ladder
Stepping over anyone
Who really doesn’t matter

Greed and lust, a guiding force
Always right on track
A deep seeded need to conquer
Never looking back.

Scouting and planning
She combs the conference room
Calculating her next plan
A victim she can groom

Innocence, an aphrodisiac
Lured thru a maze of doubt
A calculating player
It’s what she’s all about

Step inside, look around
Just one chance to find the door
Once she hands you a martini
You’ll forget, what you came for.
