Courageous
Is
He
That
Denies
Worldly
Pleasure
Synthetic experience
Unsatisfied,
Unfufilling
He
Will
Have
None of it.

Valiant
Is he
That
pursues
Eternal
Happiness
And 
He
Is the
Spirited
Stallion
That
Refuses
To
Be
Tamed
By the whip
Of his opressor

Plucky
Is
He
That
Finds
Laughter
In the
stillness
and
His
Compassionate nature
Sensitive
To
The anguish of the human
Experience

Bold
Is
He
To
Spit
In the face
Of devils
Who
Whisper
From the depths of hell
But
He will not coincide

Defiant is he
Rebellious
He
Walks
Away
From the wickedest things
Seeking real
Life
Vivacious to taste the organic experience of
Existence
And
What worldly travels shall bring

Honorable
Is
He
Most honest and true
Trustworthy
I
Would
Stake
My life on him
He could achieve anything
If he wanted to

My
Shelter
From
The
The rain,
My sanctuary 
From Pain
Bliss
Enraptured
In
My paradise

Amorous
Is
She
For
His
Kindhearted grin,
Tender
Is
He
Who
Strokes  her chin,

It
Is
The will of the world
that
Such
A man
Will
Find
His
Contentment
Again.
