Such smooth surface-
Like a wine glass,

But no brandy-
The texture holds,

On it lives-
Million souls,

With the exemption-
Of a few moles,

Between the absence-
Of light-

The underbelly remains-
Seemingly barren,

Over the years-
The texture fades,

Leaving the changes-
Constant.

hence the phrase true beauty lies within
some great images here, really enjoyed the poem.

where black will never meet white
so read my token lips
