A moth or an innocent boy <br />Or incessantly talking toy <br />Caught helplessly <br />In a nature’s ploy: <br />Thought flame loves me <br />Thought dame thinks of me <br />Thought ma’am cares for me. <br />All the while <br />The flame <br />with a flickering smile <br />burning in a opaque <br />lamp of guile <br />with a global <br />all devouring vision <br />and feeding with oil of treason <br />Saw a moth adamant on <br />self sacrificing mission <br /> <br />The hypnotized moth <br />went near <br />a flame with glee <br />and made love making <br />earnest plea <br />And the cunning flame <br />Gladly reply <br />Yeah. <br /> <br />Flame knew moth had <br />Erotomania- A delusion of love <br />Soon he would be devoured <br />As hyena devours dove <br /> <br />Then, <br />Alluring flame-an enticing threat <br />Beckoned him for a embraced great <br />Then licking the moth with <br />A tongue of death <br />She sucked away <br />His laboring breath. <br /> <br />Lo! Comes <br />One more moth <br />on the trot, <br />Attired in a martyr’s coat, <br />Burning in a heartrending <br />passions hot, <br />Bubbling like a <br />love stewed broth; <br />Trying to cross <br />A death filled moat <br />In a love tiled <br />porous boat, <br />While vainly trying <br />to remain afloat <br /> <br />The hypnotized moth <br />went near <br />the flame with glee <br />and made love making's <br />earnest plea <br />And the cunning flame <br />Gladly reply <br />Yeah! <br /> <br />Dr Hitesh C Sheth <br /> <br />11/12/2008<br /><br />Dr Hitesh Sheth<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/erotomania-a-delusion-of-love/
