UNDERWORLD

RYRAYNARD 1958 (uk)

Free verse
BENEATH  THE   GOLDEN   PAVEMENTS
TRANQUIL  SEAS   FLOW
AN  CALMNESS   BEYOND  COMPREHENSION

BLUE  TURQUOISE   WATERS
SAFFRON  COLOURED   SAND
RED  FLAMED   TORCHED   LAND

RARE EMERALDS  AND  UNKNOWN  GEMS
HIDDEN  TREASURES

MERMAIDS -CREATURES  OF   PLEASURE
DEMONS OF  DEBAUCHERY AND  SIN

DEADLY  SERPENTS
WAILING  BANSHEES

AN  BURNING  FIRE
ASHES  OF  DESIRE

ALL OUR  WELCOME--FREE  TO  GO
THERE  IS  NO  ESCPAPE--ONCE  YOU  KNOW

YOUR  LIFE WILL BE  YOURS
