That sounds wonderful


.
.
Good poetry
Makes a beautiful naked woman
Materialize from
Words,
.
Who then says,
With a sword precariously waving
In her hands,
.
"If you look at my loins
I will cut off your head,
.
And reach down and grab your spirit
By its private parts,
.
And carry you off to heaven
Squealing in joy."
.
Hafiz says,
"That sounds wonderful, just
Wonderful.
.
Someone please - start writing
Some great
Lines."
.
