Unicorn Tapestry Gilded Cherubs
A thousand candles around a tranquil green lake
Raindrops began splashing circles into the water
White lead face paint red cinnabar alibaster skin
Sleek and smooth prominent jaw amiable smile
Strong Italian accent suits of silver Fiddler plays
Unicorn swung its horn fought the ropes puffing
Silver hooves crushing the rushes Nostrils flared
Frozen tears around her neck , thick and dark red
A shriek in the courtyard Just a nightmare Sat up
A silver goblet of spiced wine nipped her tongue
Hot sweet ginger nutmeg cinnamon Dark lashes
