Prayer That Beauty Die
A real dumbfounding beauty
But there her fault lies:
The Fuel igniting The Haughty.
Once ready her victim cries;
The Sour she takes for The Fruity,
However careful Correction tries
And prolonged praises for The Naughty,
Even as irrecoverable time flies!
A hell of A Staggering Beauty
But her enemies are more than forty,
All praying that earthly beauty die
With answer for those who ask “why”
Die! Earthly Beauty do
On your death-bed just You!
