Lamenting Beauty

White wings with gray attire, a fallen angel But not, that is Muse of beauty with ruby cheeks And melancholic tone, repenting her existence. I have listened to her whispered prayer, when she Accused us of not deserving truth and beauty She asked Lord God to call her back Since we, humans, make beauty prison. Yesterday a child plucked a rose to reduce The beauty in name of beauty. She will soon fly for sky, before we Tear apart her wings to decorate our homes.
