Seraglio~where once~Palace intrigues flourished~glass bangles tinkled and maidens smiled~secluded now as a Museum sits

    Thru a Seraglio window a lonely odalisque sees a bird; her soul joins it & for a moment she is a woman on the wing, free at last

    The nightingale sings a song of freedom. In her seraglio, fine gossamer silks saturate the gilded cage. He coos his love; she wants to fly.

    The old seraglio was disappointingly empty, observed Bond - apart from the scimitar-wielding eunuch who was trying to kill him.

    Be careful: An imbroglio in the seraglio will distract the potentate from #artwiculate and and make him shout, "Decaptitate!"

    Seraglio is the new black. Not flattering nor widely available. It's considered rather 'in' sultan. #artwiculate
