Unbridled Beauty
more is beauty humiliated
when on a public stage
naked stood.
beauty that's all to eyes of much,
is nothing but costless.
such a gilded tomb
enfolds much gruesome worms.
such is a beauty
without a wintering cover!
a cruel plague:
blinding the eyes with nay cure;
weakening the spirits with just a glance.
An absolute deluge!
a heart given to it
restless and untamed be!
