Harsh Reality

Location

The world is a mistress of beautiful things
But the harsh reality is
It also holds ugly things
And we have ugly people posing as beautiful people
And they press the buttons
Leaving the rest of us in poverty
While they themselves are gluttons
They're liars, thieves, whores and infected
With avarice and belligerence
They belittle the intelligent
But though this may be true
Though it is the harsh reality
That will never stop me
From enjoying the world's beauty...
