Spartan
Imagine home's a shopping cart Imagine nothing in the larder Imagine what would fill your heart Ignore it and your life grows harder How many shoes from which to choose How many sweaters make you better How many starving on the news Will make you see that greed's a fetter Deny a crave, an urge, a cheat Deny yourself that extra bite Deny a want,...

With the intensity for experience, Like the fire that smolders deep within your essence; As if Hephaestus, God of Fire placed this potency within your heart. Raven tresses frame the noble gentleman Traveling...
