Neo-Casanova
Ignatia, young and full of grace, To Casanova, she seemed in a sacred place. Exiting church, she was approached, By a cunning rascal, his words entered. Inviting her to a ball, to dance the fandango, He showed himself to seek romance. Something else, from a life of waste, Her allure, piercing through with a sharp knife. Her parents objected, but she persisted, With mother by her side, as chaperone stood. To the ball, they danced all night, Casanova's chance openly displayed. Confessing his love, baring all, But Ignatia, bound by duty, dared not. To another already promised, her man, She could not fulfill Casanova's counsel. Yet days passed, and she found herself drawn, To his company, though her heart was torn. Envy arose when he introduced, A haughty duchess, his affections reduced. Tormented by love, she sought him, Confessing her sins, her fears, her doubts. Nothing could resist his magnetic pull, She succumbed to desire, against her rule. Her sense of duty conflicted, But in his arms, she found her part. For Casanova, the greatest seducer, Every encounter was like a dream imagined. Adapting to each woman's ideal, He made his fantasies real. Calculating every step, with cunning, To bind them.
