Love, Fair (Free verse) by MacFrantic

A stifled beauty rests Catoring sunless isolation A mere Capulet in time Pulsing Radiating A statue of apprehension So long awaiting day

!First off, *statue of apprehension* means *unmoving object filled with fearful anticipation*, not *understanding*, or *capture* as apprehension is also the definition of these things! Secondly, without getting ahead of myself, you must understand that I am referring to the sleeping beauty as a symbol, NOT as a half-assed gimmick brought on by the Disney corporation or, as you have come to know her, a shallow caricature of a deeper Grimm's Fairytale character. If I had said *This is an ode to the beauty which will never be rescued* would the critics maybe read it over again instead of spending their time with their heads up their asses. Or would that be asking too much of the people?
By the way, YES Capulet is Juliet's last name. *Damn
