The Consulting Seductress
Her quarry resides on Baker Street
Sequestered in books and arcana
Recalling speckled bands, Baskerville dogs
And the most cunning woman of all
It is she, Miss Adler,
Favoring seduction over deduction
Opium discretely added to the detective's pipe
Langour supplanting his "unassailable" reason
His obsession to capture night's agents
Now dissipated by the sight of her quim
It's pearl glistening, capturing his eye
Reducing this storied man to a boy
One desirous to enter this portal
And discover the mysteries within
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Moriarty chuckles on a bench by the Thames
Relishing a foe's defeat
The fog tells him Miss Adler succeeds
Lending practicality to their most serpentine dreams
"London Bridge is falling down," Moriarty whistles
Awaiting his dark angel's return.

One thing that occurs to me is that Holmes probably would have been more attentive to his pipe and not let Miss Adler mix opium in his exotic tobacco blend. And Holmes was a cocaine man, a seven per cent solution by injection. Or maybe Holmes was just a pushover for a beauty dropping by his digs on Baker Street. Anyway, thanks Crim! You're kind of a seductress yourself...

I always figured the stoic Holmes beyond seduction.

When I saw 'Baker Street' I wondered if Holmes was in it - the Consulting Seductress meets the Consulting Detective.
