The Way Her Silky Garments Undulate
The way her silky garments undulate It seems she's dancing as she walks along, Like serpents that the sacred charmers make To move in rhythms of their waving wands. Like desert sands and skies she is as well, As unconcerned with human misery, Like the long networks of the ocean's swells Unfolding with insensibility. Her polished eyes are made of charming stones, And in her essence, where the natures mix Of holy angel and the ancient sphinx, Where all is lit with gold, steel, diamonds, A useless star, it shines eternally, The sterile woman's frigid majesty.
