Belles-lettres no.1
Pretty lights inside my mind, the sotto voce of a touch, a hand a face
The Pines of Rome beckoningClamoring by a noiseless coastWhere is the proverbial queen of the night,Has she—fallen into Pandora’s box?
It’s so pretty on the insideThese halls, images, and figuresSerenely aloft is the wafting balladThere is no contention here
No contention, no noise,No derision and no demeaningNo competition for honor or loveHere in this unnamed palace
Giver with the pretty eyesKeep on givingGiver with the gentle handsKeep on givingGiver with the tear-stained cheekKeep on giving
-O. Montora
