Fury

Petty? I shan’t think it’s so! I have this Monet, and Van Gogh Clearly, I appreciate The things the low class tends to hate! An eye for that which is so grand! Smaller brains won’t understand Yes, this is what I say to thee A peasant is but lesser me That means that I am … More Fury

Yesteryear

I ask myself, exactly how Did I not see as I do now? What things went on in yesteryear To blind what I can now see clear Perhaps it is with every age Our lens grows sharp with each new page Time, it makes us wise and true And strips naïveté from you The young, … More Yesteryear
