Time Dusted Secrets

Little black books- blooming everywhere.
From shining sea islands to Belair mansions.
To white house lattice and cathedral bastions. 

Little black books- blooming everywhere.
Many pawns are sacrificed; many pawns are pared/ 
but the queens, bishops, and kings are always spared.

Little black books... blooming- blooming everywhere.
Little black books with time-dusted secrets.
Magically disappear.
