Try Thinking Too

The paint thickens on the walls as the sound of your voice etches the window panes with a romantic design made to warp vision and creativity in one long-winded sigh. Passion and intelligence are not mutually exclusive elements in your unbending word choices, but so often the former is used while the latter is left outside like a dog with mange glossy coat notwithstanding.

I've spent the last fifteen minutes thinking about how intelligence may be like a dog with mange. I've got nothing. Sounds cool, though.

So she has a glossy coat of passion covering mangy skin of unintelligence. Sounds like a passionate way of saying it.

the glossy coat is on the un-manged intellect (dog) that is being ignored for the sake of passionate expression.
