A Courtesan's Silver Jubilee


The high class clients gathered in her Manor
and the courtesy served on tables.
Bulldogs around the courtyard.
Just imagine if a burgeois trespass; he will be trapped?
Under the chandlier's dim light you cannot identify
so-and-so and such-and-such, all warble in a friendly manner.
No restrictions to be seen.
Lustful wallflowers are waiting for Lords
those who left their wives at home.
The soap opera with full of elegance
and the symphony covers the syndrome of outer bombardment.
All the commoners and the cowardice stuck in their
unlit houses as it's a curfew & a black out
but a Full Moon.
