What a Travesty

WHAT A TRAVESTY



WOMEN OF THIS LIFE, I EXIST WITHIN!
WHY MUST YOU MOVE MY WOUNDED
HEART, AS THE TREES OF THE FOREST
MOVETH WITH THE BREATH OF THE WIND?
YET, YOU EMBRACE IT NOT! AM I SUCH A VILE
CREATION, THAT YOU FIND ME SO UNWORTHY 
OF ONE OF YOUR SISTERS(RED,YELLOW,EBONY,OR
IVORY)INTIMATE AFFECTION?  WHAT A TRAVESTY
IF THIS BE MY EPITAPH, AFTER I LEAVE THIS WEARY 
VESSEL MY SPIRIT LIVES IN!
