Only ugly

To the perceptions of an Olympian styled ego
i am a neolithic imperfection,
a wave amongst lateral limitation,

 


a gargoyle stood next to the angels of superficial indoctrination
polluting the shallow streams of social expectation
with dis-functional isms and rugged appearance,
when fed by the apparent
i am a visual inconvenience,

 


but i don't let that bring me down,
because my soul when lit,

could outshine
with beauty

most of the lights in this town.

    This has a wonderful message, and light, love and beauty does not come from the out side, but from within. I have had the pretty boys, the kind you want to bed on site, but there inside turns you cold and bitter. A beautiful heart makes the man.

    A gargoyle to the blind who look with their eyes and not with the Spirit. This is an awesome poem.

    This is such a brilliant write. as always your choice of words were excellent, and you manage to put them all together in such a strong write. And the last stanza is great, i really enjoyed reading through this. Well done and all the best for the contest.
