The Enchantress

Even the mightiest warriors
who swung
their fiercest swords
and slayed
the vilest villains,
curl up
in their warm spaces:
by a fireplace, in a nest,
or on a lover's lap,
close their eyes gently,
and become
the most vulnerable.

With her slender index finger,
she traces her name
on his hairy chest.
