Analysis of Desert Queen
Hello there my tall slender beauty all cordially wrapped in an eggshell white
You have the attention of the sun glaring off the windshield of a rolls royce
Lips of scarlet locks of blonde
She melts the sky into my palms
I dread the day I look and she is gone
Kiss me now my desert queen
Or are you just a weary dream
One more mirage that has disposed
To end again in weary prose
