Raven Haired Beauty



Raven haired heiress to the kingdom of eve sat still beneath an iron castle of hearts desires,
eating lunch on a nine to five;
dreaming of adam or eden or both.

As i walked to retreive my morning coffee, I'd noticed her caressing a cup; tempting the bright incandesant lights across her sinuous form; reading a book.

I asked her what she was reading and her eyes like two diamonds shown replied with a satisfied grin "just a book I'd bought" but I could see the case hadn't yet been made as the lingering thoughts spoke themselves clearly on her perched lips".
