A Certain Point of Beauty

Neville

A Certain Point of Beauty

 

He dreams, breathes, eats and sleeps less well

Than his once famous Spanish mistress and

One time, would be courtesan

He being a poet, a collector of moments

And a connoisseur of beauty

Arranges with a shepherd to sacrifice a lamb

 

He then considers leaving in the morning

Before her daily rituals begin

Of showering and combing

Of breast and pelvic muscle exercise and moaning

Long before her beauty frays

And leaves her just another extraordinarily

Attractive woman...

            A casket of treasured words here Neville - - beauty of course is in the eye of the beholder they say - - but those mentioned exercises sound helpful and methinks to try 'em !! Great read.

              Ahhh that moment of descision "should I stay or should i go".

              Beauty, being in the eye of the beholder, can be a short lived quality.
