This is a poem I’ve made about Greta Garbo when she was playing “Mata Hari”:
Mata Hari
When gentlemen are out
They laugh, they shout
I seduce and cheat
Searching hearts to hit
Champagne flows on vanity
Stolen kisses and luxury
Everyone wants to tease
But no one can be pleased
In the harem, a rose doesn’t grow
Between nettles and sorrow
But in the heart of the dancer
In love with her fellow
