Beautiful Creatures
The golden sun lit faces
The beautiful ebony faces
The buttery and rich green hearts
The burnt and distorted hearts
Beauty in the eyes of the beholder
And as such, no feminine subject to ugliness
Formed in the manner of goddesses
Olympus stares on in envious anger
The creator perfecting the face
Forgot to perfect the hearts
For he was overwhelmed
By the beauty of his creation
Having lived in this Earth
I have learnt of myself
That all are beautiful
Yet, all are not beautiful
