    Sweet Seduction

    2004

    Ah, the lure of books
    Such sweet seduction!
    The gentle curves of a swaying body of words
    The tasteful fabric of an exquisitely draped cover
    The alluring glint in the eyes of an enigmatic character
    The finely applied make-up of colour-textured illustrations
    The possessive dance of an evolving rhythmic narrative
    The aesthetic beauty of a pose of inflective phrase
    At the caress of literature
    All resistance crumbles!
