Trending fashion of superficial beauty <br />seeps into the souls of those caught <br />in tides of complicated insanity; <br />dancing in what life it has brought. <br /> <br />Poor fruit suffers and spoils while others adore <br />the shimmering of pearly skin. <br />Withstanding trials and time, she has stood for <br />the sweet flatteries she will win. <br /> <br />Stranger to the fact she’s hungry for wisdom; <br />philosophy eludes such roads; <br />the dying fruit heads to another kingdom <br />accompanied by glorious odes. <br /> <br />Now realizing the need for proper growth <br />the body mourns so hellishly <br />as the dead spirit in river Styx floath <br />paying for her beauty’s degree.<br /><br />Mark Trajano<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/duality-19/
