WHO AM I ?

The young woman has jewels in her ears
Three on the lobe, and one inside
What else awaits hidden from my eyes?
Her breasts awaken before her eyes do
Thank you for seeing me in the dark.

Radar can detect the presence of a plane
Sonar can detect the presence of a whale
X-rays can detect the presence of a hair line break
MRI can detect the presence of a tumor on the brain.
My skin, tongue, and teeth
Can detect the presence of your pleasure with me.

Angels play guitar and sing.
I feel like a guy who lives in Italian suits.

  Angelo Verga
