Devils, Men and beyond Heavenly

The monstrosity of glamour 

Whose riches makes one stammer,

Beholds the dreams of dreams 

That none would even dare to redeem,

It's glory shines bright

Brighter than the sun's light,

When men, women and even little ones

Move their lips in pure elegance

And dress and posture; the aura they exude

Can never be elucidated in these words so crude;


As much as you and me want to,

To narrate and revere this one pearl of a rever,  

 (note : rever is dream in french)

Many more blessed, with much more erudite

With much yearn and flamboyance, are trying and have tried,

So with regret deeper than the kindness of the mother

I invite you to grace the world, a bit further;


A sight, so sore and appalling 

that in words too, deserves no appall but disgusting  

(note : use of direct blunt language to describe downtrodden (disgusting) in sharp contrast to describing affluent )

women seem wild and men stoop lower

the little dressed with sore and filth all over,

and I'm sure you are fuming with rage

as to why am I paining your eyes with distaste

Yet I beg you, before you ascend and ignore

the barks and shrieks of these vermins of mordor;


Next time you say all men are equal, they always were

Next time you claim misfortunes are all rightly shared,

Next time you shout there is no problem,

Enunciate clearly

Whom you see devils, men and beyond heavenly
