I am a golden lure.
I am the laughter of false goddesses.
I go disguised as Love.
Men are my slaves.
Women are my slaves.
I am a goddess and the world is my shrine.
I am the night wind
Blowing through the leaves.
I am the moonlight of a hidden glade.
I am starlight
On a palace.
I am Lust.

This is a posthumous work and its copyright in certain countries and areas may depend on years since posthumous publication, rather than years since the author's death. Translations or editions published later may be copyrighted.
