ugliness and beauty float into each other
decieving
interchanging forms
and then back again.
you can never trust what you see.
beauty masked as a scar
or the scars left behind by beauty.
beauty and the beast are but one.
just a different side, just a different time.

Like anger and love two extriems of the same coin, love a fairy tale
All I can say is, wow. Loved this part:
"beauty masked as a scar
or the scars left behind by beauty."
It's all in ones perception of beauty and ugliness, isn't it?
Beautiful poem. Spurrs so many thoughts and interpretations.
such wonderfully sensitive perception! you juxtaposed light and dark then found a connection between them.
"beauty and the beast are but one.
just a different side, just a different time"
lovely lines!
just thought of parallel universe..

Oh, this is so beautiful ! (No pun intended)
I loved this :)
wow, a new way to look at things. i love it!!!
very deep.
this really put a little sunshine on my gloomy friday, thanks girl :)
Gulnaz, I know you're not supposed to say this on blogs...
But I really don't get this one. You'd need to explain it to me...
That is *marvellous*. Yes, o yes, they're the same thing, and you don't have shift postion very far to see the turn!
Sue- anger is such a terrible emotion, aint it...such destructive energy.
Mermaid- yes and that perception is fluid.
thank you for liking this! :)
.:A:. - thank u! i'd have liked to know about those thoughts and interpretations.
yvaine- kind and encouraging as always! sometimes something which you have been struggling with for a long time becomes clear in a single moment.
transi- glad you like it! ....its sort of like trying to make sense of this life.
finn- i;m going to look up robert ryman on the net but you are right its only when you relate to something on a deeper personal level does one cross that bridge to really knowing that thing.
Brood Mode- thanks!!
Authour by the brook- the thought of an entire parallel universe is exciting.
rusty- thanks....it does depened upon the viewer.
Faith- yes, its an amazing thing! :)
Rare Blue- thanks! :))
Ash- lol...thanks! :)
Lorena- oh boy, that makesme smile! i'm so happy that you liked it so much, thank you girlfreind!
Paul- hey...you can say whatever you want to say....the same person at different times can show different sides of one's personality, sort of like jekyll and hyde and also what is neccessarily beautiful is not actually so and vice versa. also that its fluid and that vision is insubstantial as evidence.
Dale- isnt that scary thought! am glad you enjoyed it. :)
Pf- pun intended? ;) thanks! :)
Gulnaz, just wondering if you're ok, there's scary stuff about earthquakes in your part of the world. I hope it's no where near you?
that's exactly what wise people always preached us, to look beyond the material face, look beyond the front drama, there is always something else you would find if you can peek behind the curtain, it's a total different world on two sides of this layer.
Sue- I'm good, thanks! the epicentre of the earthquake was far away from us in pakistan. in india, the worst hit was kashmir, i know a lot of ppl there but thank god none i know were touched by it.
around 250 ppl died there...its such a bizzare tragedy...god help all those destroyed by it.
thanks a lot for caring sue, felt nice! :)
Venus- yeah, its one lesson all of us are taught and one which we forget as soon as we quit class....:)
So glad you and yours are OK, such terrible events hugs Sue
In just which part of us these aesthetics sit most intransigently, I cannot tell.
I only know that whenever brave intelligence picks up its armour to square a philosophical point with the Siamese twins beauty and ugliness, two armies stretching as far as the imagination can project, one manned by primal skeletons, the other by cultural ghosts, pick up theirs in opposition.
*sings*
Tale as old as time...
Song as old as rhyme...
Beauty and the Beast.
See, this is what happens when you want comments from me. Bleah. I suck. Pui. Pui.
Ps: Hey, how come the rest of them have a lot to say about just one paragraph huh? Lol. Ok, lame. :P
I like 'ugliness and beauty flow into each other'.
Someone's scars to another can be beautiful and vice versa. :)

Gulnaz! Your truth is so powerful ;-) There is such a fine line, and we meander back and forth, spinning like a roulette wheel, wondering which we are...
