None So Blind

there are some

reading sin

see beauty

no objection

discerned

no rejection

known

utmost defiance

no more than

courage

there are none so blind

as those who will not see

After writing "Victus," reading some comments on

Henley’s “Invictus” and seeing so many see no more

than a beautiful poem.

Which, when you look at it, isn’t so beautiful after all.
