Sirens

The sirens beckoned him in the middle of the

sea, their entrancing wiles stunningly beguiling

and mystifying.  He was held spellbound then,

his heart racing, his pulse quickening to a

rapturous delirium and he knew he was held

captive, a prisoner of his own imagery and ecstasy.

The sea nymphs gathered round him, encircling,

enchanting, luring him closer to them that they

might entreat and cajole and entice.  No, he was

not strong enough for resistance, he could not

simply turn and swim away, he yielded to their

gentle mystical call, the call he had only heard

in his lingering daydreams so often.
