Glory Bound (Free verse) by kazeaki Keep your head held high, love,
for the world is hued in violet shades.
Let them say you are of nothing made!
For glory finds his victims from
grime to velvet sheets.
Someday you will meet Gaea.
Your feet will kiss the bottom sea
and your eyes shine with the stars.
Up the ladder:
For Mukhtaran Bibi in Pakistan
Down the ladder:
The Things I love and Elempty

profound & illustrious... would go good with a danish and a machiatto right about now... Da1(on an empty stomach)
Last 3 lines exemplify the power of good poetry. Much in little. Meditative. Makes me feel worthwhile. I get stuck on the idea of glory having victims. 7
"let them say you are of nothing made".....the whole inverting words to make things rhymes just doesnt sound good..
