Beautiful Uglies




















A BEAUTY MATTER


sometimes I hear the uglies whisper
in the pent up rage of others
and I realize how loveliness
looks from another point of view

dear beautiful uglies
I honor you today
making a welcome space
for you to share with me
how you came to be this way
