Elliott Bowe The Drunken Poet Poet Verse

Struggle For Beauty and Pleasure

Though
                                                         the stem
                                                         is thorny 
                                                       as the road
                                                        at the end
                                                        beauteous
                                                            rose
                                                           petals
                                                            hold 
                                                            their 
                                                            head 
                                                            high
                                                             up 
                                                             up 
                                                             up
