the peasant with nothing to offer
but, rock of bread
they vowed to each other
the eternal devotion
and with every union
a male shall support
the house
and female shall
tend the house
daily labor
filled with black
stained his skin
the remuneration
was barley sufficient
she offered her talents
of the morphing avifauna
feeling hopeless
they pursued
and flaunted her majesty
the worlds eyes did pay
with plenty
but greed stained
the her feathers
until yet another
wanted the relentless
curves and talents
of the female tengu
the count
made his presence known
he persuaded the wedded
that greed is now what binds
with a swoosh
her majesty was swept
locked behind stone
taken away from him
her love

I am not happy with part 2 as much as I am with part 1. But please read part 1 before you read part 2. Part three will be coming soon.
