Battle for Beauty 10/9/10
The sunrise smears its colors beneath the clouds
like bread with butter on the bottom...
like Dr. Seuss
remember: all those funny people fought for
nothing,
for butter-side up or butter-side down...
Who would fight
after catching a glimpse
of beauty like this?
Or who could keep from war
after only a glimpse...
For everyone longs for the
better-side down.
Is this why we fight?
For a nothing of a
beauty-chase?
For where is a
beautiful nation?
A unified land?
Is this why we battle
when we gaze at the clouds
with their better-side down?
