PLUTOCRACY IN LOVE

If you are bought at marriage, don't expect love to come with the dowry
packet.

A woman's love is as the mist before dawn, lost if you wait too long.
She longs for someone to conquer her, for she is fulfilled in consuming
fires of love.
She wants to give herself, but only to the nobler savage whose gauntlet
hides a soft hand.

A woman is far more ancient than a man, rooted in instinct and deadly
intuition.
She is neither noble or ignoble, and even when in love, rarely if ever
wholly tamed.

She loves the strong lover, and can admixture grudging fear with fierce
attraction.
Danger fulfils her, and tame domesticity renders her tamely insane.

Inside every woman truly loved, there lurks a wild creature with emerald
eyes.
In her midnight soul she dreams of lost civilizations when she ruled,
godless and supreme.

For her to love you, she must blossom, and to do that, she must run free.
As soon as you can, kiss her feet and tell her you nothing binds or
obligates her.
Then set her free of all pretense, prejudice, implied inferiority and
surrogate roles.

When a woman is truly free, she will, when it suits her, love.
It is worth waiting a lifetime to see that happen, especially to you.

But first, return the dowry.
