Siren Song

Did no one ever stop to think That Siren, with her killing call Would never willing wish to sink The men who for her fancy fall For beauty isn't invitation; the fault's not in a Siren's sighs To sing is not to seek flirtation Ego, not woman, was man's demise

Amazing how these archetypal classical stories still have power even when the theme is turned on its head, You have given it a clever and effective twist.
