What rarity can acclaim to this elusive title? Where surely claiming it itself is against its nature. It might be what our mothers told grubby faced, knee knocked flecks that dart from graffitied parks when light turns dark. Is it in the eye of the beholder, a stubborn piece of irritating dust? Perhaps those who search will never be rewarded with a glimpse as perfection becomes unfathomably further. Why does the haughty swan rise when the it squawks more than the pigeon? Beauty is boxed. It is wrapped in parcels and swaddled in ribbon until one forgets that it is in the child's face and not his hands. Unmeasurable pleasure shouldn't be contained, it roams and commands like a caged tiger. It controls the eye and navigates, onward soldier. So perhaps it is not rare at all but there for all customary enough to anticipate the undeniable.
