I wrote this in 1976 while stationed in Frankfurt-Hoechst, Federal Republic of Germany with the United States Army. One of my soldier friends who read the poem, based on the seventh verse, asked how this applied to a single person. In response I wrote the eighth verse, so it is a postscript to the poem proper.
The Woman of the Night
A Poem by Howard Alan Parsons
Based on The Living Bible Proverbs 4-7
She leads you down to death and hell;
She does not know the path to life.
She staggers down a crooked trail;
She is the woman of the night.
Hearken! Young man listen to me;
Don't forget the words I say;
Run from her or else you'll soon be
With your body forced to pay.
She'll hold you close, and then she'll kiss you;
With a saucy look she'll say,
"Since you've been gone, I've sorely missed you;
Come upon my bed we'll lay.
My bed is spread with lovely linen,
Colored sheets perfumed with myrrh;
Your happiness is just beginin'."
Oh, the lies you'll hear from her.
Son, don't let her charms seduce you;
If you do, you'll surely pay.
Son, don't let her lies confuse you;
If you do, someday you'll say.
"Oh, if I had only listened!
Why would I not take advice?
Why did I not pay attention?
Now disease has claimed my life!"
With this girl don't be undressing;
Shun this woman of the night.
Let your manhood be a blessing;
With your wife in love delight.
And in case there is a question
If you're single, zip it up!
But to ease your bladder's tension
Or to catch some in a cup.
