Black Diamond Night

Name's irrelevant It is what we know inside The unobtainable bride Postured on the eyes Black diamond night, I said Velvet wrap from toe to head Her eyes sparkled white And from her teeth light rebound She was black song without sound Dark night without moon Except in fragrance, the bud Of dawn breaks and ripples blood Desire set to ruin Upon the pigment melting Silence in ebon basking A jewel of flesh A worth beyond all price A blackness that sweet entice And she parading Her figure draping frail clothes Knows not how tongues are dried up And rivers congeal And light in crystal movements Seek revelation in love A model, she's billed But she like ebony ice On oiled limbs her core sufficed Black diamond night Drinking stars, swallowing light Magic on the naked sight.
