[hometext] => Women seem to like this poem. The idea for it came from the 1997 movie Kama Sutra, the story of an Indian courtesan.
[bodytext] => Older than Aphrodite, she sang at the coming of fertility gods with a voice sweeter than paradise birds who with sun on the wing would approach and blush to a queen with no crown but with strings of rubies in tied-back hair. Stepping through the porticoes of ages to the secret haunts that nestle the primordial jungles of Africa she has set her foot and blessed the land – no slave traders have ever entered here to debauch their souls with the sin of Cain, or fortune hunters who would dip their hearts in icy baths of diamonds and gold stripping them of human cloth, leaving nothing but cold embers where not even the breath of angels could ignite a fire and bring a thaw. Not living in the palaces of heaven, she chooses to walk the earth in prayer – that love grow among thorns and truth blossom like the mud orchids that stand in foul water. Though she stands in humility’s light; her blood is divine. So…if you see a veiled queen walking among the groves careful not to lift her veil and see her face-to-face Remember your mortal blood.
