The beauty lies beneath
the skin
the web of veins
rushing the blood to feed
the construct to the brain
that is immersed in the industry
that preys on sultry phrases
fed by ignorant
to flourish the decadence
of the soul which truly knows
what beauty
lies within the bag of bones.
Magnificent poem! Strong transitional lines and excellent conclusion. I’ve only read a couple of poems so far, but I really enjoy your style of writing. Sincerely, Brian
