"Girls are so queer you never know what they mean. They say No when they mean Yes, and drive a man out of his wits for the fun of it." "Violence is never the answer! It is a question, and the answer is yes."

Enter Man
He intervenes
He cultivates
He waits

Enter Woman
She triwls
She dances
She worships

Enter Love
It traps Man
It traps Woman
And brings them together

Enter Jealousy
The dragon that describes it
Tries to protect the Rose of Love
But burns it down in anger

Enter Lust
Captures eyes of Man
Trains the art of seduction to Woman
And hides behind Love's pure name
