Thy Curse And Thy Passion Oceans depth curl gently thine waves save thine existence from thee caves thine undertowed wrath frightfully vain take honor from on high to not abstain. Searched thee earth for thine own suitor ye hath not eyed thee majesty of pewter her grace n'er opens thine doors of gold whilst locked inside her souls grown cold. Hollowed gold thy doors cursed by dare destiny of old myth could n'er thou share thy pewter within thou halls of such clutter descend those who are permitted to shutter. Thy prize of beauty lying in thy castle dark shall release thy curse only if a man embark to win thy graces fair by enticing her desires in gentle words of truth strung upon sapphires. Not a man yet hath found thy words to please as yet thy beautiful lady lies waiting to seize thy curse and thy passion driven behind doors from thy men who vision women as only hores.

This was excellent, Esmeralda. "Those permitted to shutter" - that is quite a powerful line. Speaks volumes to one like me. michael |
