I search through this dry dusty

Life like a miner, seeking a

Glint of diamond in dusky

Coal. When first I laid eyes on

That supple young wife, any

Decency left in my heart

Was snuffed like a candle in

A storm. Tender and trusting,

She came to my bedroom and

Her bodice was open, I

Lapped at her breasts which tasted

Of sweetness and beauty and

Youth. I ravaged her and brought

The beast from within with her

Skirts flying upwards we came.

Would I could keep her but we

Heard her husband come calling,

Till next time, my redemption
