The Kiss

 To these I turn, in these I trust; 
Brother Lead and Sister Steel.
 
To his blind power I make appeal; 
I guard her beauty clean from rust.
 

He spins and burns and loves the air, 
And splits a skull to win my praise; 
But up the nobly marching days 
She glitters naked, cold and fair.
 

Sweet Sister, grant your soldier this; 
That in good fury he may feel 
The body where he sets his heel 
Quail from your downward darting kiss.
