A pretty face can be appealing, but “beauty” is all the more potent when it is more than just a facade, when it is a symbol for something greater, something that stirs the soul.

from book “beauty: the twentieth century” ♥ |
There is a loneliness in this world so great
that you can see it in the slow movement of
the hands of a clock.
people so tired
mutilated
either by love or no love.
people just are not good to each other
one on one.
the rich are not good to the rich
the poor are not good to the poor.
we are afraid.
our educational system tells us
that we can all be
big-ass winners.
it hasn’t told us
about the gutters
or the suicides.
or the terror of one person
aching in one place
alone
untouched
unspoken to
watering a plant.
