Life Is a Beautiful Beast

LIFE IS A BEAUTIFUL BEAST.
SO LIKE THE HYDE OF JEKYLL,
AS IT BOASTS OF ITS RADIANCE.
IT LIES WITHIN ITS FRUSTRATIONS,
WORKING AMONGST THE WOLVES, 
ADAPTING TO THEIR WAYS.
BY MEANS OF A PERSUASIVE EYE
AND MAKING ITS OWN CHOICES.
ONCE PURE AT CONCEPTION,
BECOMES STAINED AT BIRTH.
THEY TRY TO CORRUPT IT
SO THERE IS NO SUCCESSION,
BUT IT CONTINUES ON.
FACING DIFFICULT TASKS,
OVERCOMING THE OBSTACLES,
BUT DETERMINED TO PREVAIL.
LIFE IS A BEAUTIFUL BEAST.
