"Adiza" is a striking exploration of beauty and its deceptive nature. Edwin Ondor employs vivid imagery and a melodic flow to weave a narrative that is both alluring and cautionary.

Original Submission by Edwin Ondor
Adiza!
You're quintessential beauty in exquisite marble.
Your eyes- sapphire like two diamond stones in the sun!
Your voice- velvet-smooth, like the purring chirp of a nightingale.
But your personality-a sweet poison and bile to the soul!
Adiza!
Your gait is graceful.
Your body is fire!
A template of animal desire
where infatuation reign like rain!
Your beauty is fractured emptiness, a whitewashed wall without
finesse.
Your charm is a facade without charisma!
Your mind is a hollow shell without content.
Adiza
Now here ,
there ,
and everywhere,
playing Russian Roulette on the wheel of men's emotions,
powered by the adrenalin from cupid's temple .
Adiza!
The love -plague
that must be avoided like COVID-19!
But with the practiced hands of a village drummer ,
She plays her game,
and men become her gain,
as they fall in shame and pain,
shackled by stupidity and distorted by zombied gullibility .
