Sheherezade

I had better tell you a tale
Caliph
Swirl into
a cushion on the floor
How humbly I spin for my life
my eyes never flashing
or ankle showing
I appeal to your curiousity
Caliph
I have seen the girls
bejewelled for a night
believe your tender words
betrayed
by morning light
Ill tell you a tale
Caliph
but that is all
