I can resist anything but temptation. Oscar Wilde

*Oh the horror of sweet temptation* *It can lead to one’s damnation* *Its lure induces one with its appealing persuasion* *It can breed on a man’s own aspirations* *But its charm can become a terrible distraction* *It can sidetrack a man’s mind to diversion* *And cause him to lose his concentration* *One might say its compulsion is a horrible disruption* *And therefore a mighty source of sheer frustration* *Are you tempted?*

THIS IS A GREAT, UNIQUE WORK...AND YOU ARE SO RIGHT. THE VERY THING THAT CAN 'LURE' ONE TO TEMPTATIONS...ARE THE NEGATIVITIES OF IT. WELL DONE AND ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING, LEW. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

You phrased this ingenuous little poem in a manner that the temptation you speak of could be anything from a sexual allure or what channel to watch on television.
