how must it be
to stand
beneath the weight
of
'The Burden Of Beauty'
where does the string theory
fade
in this matter of indiscriminate
fate
that which guides one out
of the guise
that the bond of
physical beauty defies
flagrantly
too often in fact
't is a burden
like great wealth
one could surmise
only cloaked
from the inside
like the trappings
of debt
where what the outside world
envies
the perceived to be blessed
could argue such point
to the contrary
some days
to her very last breath
to the congress of truth
that old adage holds strong
no book's cover
can ever be
adequately judged
while so unreasonably wronged....................
