–noun
a crayon-like oil-based cosmetic used in colouring the lips, usually in a tubular container.
She made her own
Blending shades of universe
Spices and scents from afar
A kiss from her
Would bind you to her whims
Or freeze your heart in its path
Never mind her eyes
Her lipstick was deadly
Sweet Medusa

Very femme fatale! Medusa! Don't look at her! Excellent poem and I love how you got your poem into the lipstick picture. What a perfect blend. MMMMMedusa! How'd ya do that? Talent!
Ahhh, good work, Nathalie!
Love that stinger "Sweet Medusa" ending!
It appears painted lips have magical powers...if you think about it, it is true.
Oh sweet Medusa, indeed! What a lovely piece -
Yes, never take your eye off the ball! Women are good magicians.

Excellent. You just know a kiss from Medusa would have to be deadly. And if you somehow survived her kiss and her glance, her "hairdo" would be sure to get you!
You have blended exotic "shades of universe" -- well done.
'freeze your heart in its path'... so powerful. Love the Medusa take on the prompt, clever!
wicked cool magpie! she's a heart stealer...one kiss at a time...
Now that's some powerful lipstick.
