    Can we get a close up of the price TLA? I just got to know what someone thinks this is worth.
    Well spotted cobbler.

    what’s wrong with this?

    the reproduction onyx is the crowning touch

    what woman could fail to get moist in the gusset when presented with that bunch of long-stemmed silk roses, fed the finest Belgan chocolates, and led to this magnificent swan bed with matching side tables?

    it’s classy

    I can picture Bree lounging across it seductively shoving something.

    It would be the perfect frame for a water bed, what, with all those wavy swirls and things.
    Add fancy lighting effects, and seaside sounds and you could think that you’re making love in a canoe.

    The headboard looks like stop frame animation of a swan dying.

    The bed reminds me of this little Mallarmé ditty, in which a swan attempts to free itself from a frozen lake:

    A swan of old remembers that it is he,
    Superb but helpless, for he would not sing
    Of regions where life still was beckoning
    When winter spread its sterile, cold ennui.

    I expect I should have adapted this, but no time today.

      Your verse reminds me of another, the Roast Swan, from the Carmina Burana

      Once I lived on lakes,
      once I looked beautiful
      when I was a swan.

      Misery me!
      Now black
      and roasting fiercely!

      The servant is turning me on the spit;
      I am burning fiercely on the pyre:
      the steward now serves me up.

      Now I lie on a plate,
      and cannot fly anymore,
      I see bared teeth
