Perched high 'pon a rock plateau <br />Eyes vision, of rarest sight <br />An angel of feathered wing <br />Horned priestess, of darkened night <br /> <br />She sat with comfort and grace <br />Hair of dark length 'pon her shoulder <br />Sultry mistress, silent queen <br />Atop her throne, a boulder <br /> <br />She wore not clothes of wealth <br />For her dress was tattered, torn <br />Yet still she kissed the light of dawn <br />With the beauty of early morn <br /> <br />Her form was sleek and slender <br />Milky skin of manly desire <br />Goddess of temptation's sin <br />Burning embers, passion's fire <br /> <br />Divine creature of creation <br />Birthed not of Heaven, nor Hell <br />Wicked innocence, purest evil <br />In bodily form doth dwell <br /> <br />Perched high 'pon a rock plateau <br />Eyes vision of rarest sight <br />Angelic temptress, priestess <br />Of thine, most blackened night <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Copyright 2008 W.
