The Man's Desires

He has a white woman to keep face, And a black mistress for is delights. The Black Queen This one belonged in the cabin With moss growing on its sides, Inside this apartment with It’s smell of dancing forests Here he enjoyed honey And the most potent wines The woman who lived In a glass case, She is the chest that Keeps his high pleasure And guards his secrets. The White Empress She is what ancient Literature has called The old Hollywood glamour, Even Venus would have struck Her down if the clouds did not Shield her from the heavens, This woman brought him honour From all corners of the earth For she had Shirley Caesar magic. But it was always the moss covered Cabin that he would spend his nights, This man wanted the entire earth, And thought he had acquired it; Until he met the cappuccino princess.
