Branded

Seductively manipulative.
With my intellect I lead or draw you
By exciting your hope or desire
Into an evil, foolish or disastrous course.

I am thus rightfully branded.
Look back through these written words.
I stand convicted by their message.
No man, woman or child is safe.

You tell me that my perceptions
Of you are different.
I am unique in my beliefs.
These special sensitivities are mine alone.
My dreams and aspirations are only for the rare.

So with this brand you can now put me aside,
Be done with me.
These alluring words come from the heart
Of a seductive manipulator.
