black ... as the vault, those tresses (your momma's ire), and a universe beneath ... smile to rival Sol where hope dances, and fearfully dark, those eyes - a pitchy pool ever deep enough to plunge ... to swim through ... to drown in, (sadness disturbs its depths) hips that toss killer curves to any fool's gaze, with a tempo to tame ... and torture - a sway to beguile the gods, themselves, and transform a simple stride into coy seduction … oh, I'd give a galaxy of suns to be your paladin ... your Ferrix ... your beloved home.
