Sweet Maria, she's my passion:
jet black eyes and face all ashen.
She lures me with her scarlet lips,
and tempts me with her hourglass hips.
My Maria, she's a stunner.
Beautiful, like Eva Brunner.
Skin as soft as alabaster:
makes my heart beat faster, faster!
Poor Maria, told me, shedding
tears, that there would be no wedding.
Apparently, she loves another:
my, brainless, obtuse, older brother!
Sweet Maria's still so lovely,
but I can't live if she won't have me!
Hell, what does she see in him?
He's fat and old; I'm young and slim!

Hello!
Knowing your other work so well, I suspect this is poetic humor and not a real, intentional dig at anyone's older brother, as AI is concerned. Ha! :) Very original, and a bit on the funny wild side for you! As most of your work is wonderfully romantic and almost Shakespearean, it's nice to see some lighter work.
