Black Eternity On blackest wings you fly, To dark mysterious haunts, To rule your waiting minions Lost without their regal lead Laws and morals don’t apply, As desires are unleashed, Clothes are shed with abandon Inhibitions fall away Gorgeous creatures weave their spells, With secret agendas they play King, Queen, Knight, Rook, Bishop, Pawn Exploiting them to the ground The once aloof, proud heads of state Grovel, simper, wretch and plead, Mistress, wise, adorned in dark Smiles, then bends them to their knees. Dark court held throughout the night Dissipates at light of dawn Participants look for their shoes And cringe at the ghastly light The Mistress, wise, adorned in dark Watches them leave one by one Her beauty is to-die-for They did, one, by one, by one.
