Two challenges in two days. I’m on a roll!! But like most good rolls, it’s all downhill. This one from Sammi who asks for something of 77 words. One of those words has to be wayward.
*****
You think me wayward
But on any day I could be
Just misdirected
Sometimes suspected
Of worse
But with this verse
I stand corrected
An attempt
At contrition
Submission
To a higher power?
Like a flower
So soon
In bloom
Reborn
Like a rose
That knows
Of the thorn
Making one suspicious
Of the delicious
Poison in the tips
These swaying hips
A dance
A chance
To be played with
Decayed with
Lust
Mistrust
Disgust
Can’t you see?
A way
To be wayward
With me
*****
You ARE on a roll! I like it.

Misdirection is magic like the perfume of the rose, a thorny attraction, but a proper bee can lust without blood drawn and help to fertilize the rose hips of Rose the wayward Lass who serves Scotch on a rocky shore with a dangerous dance of seduction.

One way or another there is always a sting in the tail (or should that be tale?)

Sounds like an advert for trouble.

It is. But no one answers.
