Geisha
An exquisite Geisha.
From Japan, Asia.
Ladies in training,
Singing, Dancing, Entertaining.
Features are so delicate,
Hair long, black as night.
Show your might, accumulate,
Experience, Texture, Color, Light.

I had a bonding problem when I went off and boxed for five years. I was over in Europe and Asia fighting because I wanted to do something different; I was tired of acting. But the thing is, when I was done doing that, I couldn't get a job.
