perceptions...

ugliness is just a mere
perception...
beauty is in the eyes
of the beholder...
when you look
at our world
tell me
what do you see
do you only see the beautiful
and close your eyes
to the ugly
i refused to have
my conscience raped
by thoughts of beauty
yet in truth ugly
and humans who plunder things
more than flesh
and made the act
the badge of allegiance...

we must never close our eyes
we must open them wide
to see the ugly side
because that too
is an integral part of life
the warping of words
the blurring of wounds
page igniting at a touch
the man gouging his eyes out
searching what's right
man's last attempt
to word beauty and ugly
in his terms, to fathom meanings
yet the flame consumes
even him...

they consume him
and he lets it
as he feels
he has no other choice
too many decisions made
by a higher voice
times face dangers
yet he grapples
blindly with open eyes
for the reel of thoughts
the fusion of positive vibes
kept returning to the scene
where the beauty of man lies
ugly virtues and characters
are buried deep to the abyss
ne'er to resurfaced yet again
so seeds of time grow with love...
aloha!
