Three Word Wednesday CCCLXXI

The words this week at 3WW are:
Cunning
Degenerate
Emaciated

Here's my attempt:

UNDER THE LIME TREE
You could hear her coming pounding running
Cunning as a fox one foxy lady
Shady as that day under the Lime tree
She really knew her way across the State

Degenerate reprobate and panting
Ranting and raving foaming at the mouth
South of the city but well north of hell
Well she did say that I would lose my soul

Soled and high heeled shiny in shoe shined shoes
Choose me she declared I want to want you
Chew you up spit you out onto the street
Treat you like an emaciated fool

    1. Hi Belva Rae, loved your story! I couldn't leave a comment on your blog though as it would only let me comment with a google chrome account which would mess up my web presence. I will try again later.
