Nice Baba. I like the two lines of the last stanza. "Beauty would
rather be ugly Than see itself in the mirror." No sense of
introspection , I guess.

Subject: [G_L] Strange Choices - A Poem
Strange Choices In a sea of dancing noisesIt is silent like
yesterdayUnder a sky of blinding lightDarkness rules in blind
majestyBefore a vision of beautiful futuresHearts recoil at the
prospect of recognitionMinds choose dark cornersIn which to hide to
escapeGazing upon the path of rightEyes bury their knowing headsIn the
blinding sands of denialBeauty would rather be uglyThan see itself in
the mirror. - Baba
