Cadence and Cascade
|
Kept a man named Jade;
|
Cool in the shade
|
While his audience played.
|
Purred, whispered, "Spend us too:
|
We only serve for you".
|
|
Sliding mystified
|
On the wine of the tide
|
Stared pale-eyed
|
As his veil fell aside.
|
Sad paper courtesan
|
They found him just a man.
|
|
Caravan hotel
|
Where the sequin spell fell
|
Custom of the game.
|
Cadence oiled in love
|
Licked his velvet gloved hand
|
Cascade kissed his name.
|
|
Sad paper courtesan
|
They knew him just a man.
