Every Day We Choose
3 things
a man creates
happiness
a profit
beauty
every day
we choose
to create
every day
we sacrifice one
for another
profit for happiness
happiness for beauty
beauty for profit
it is a strange
and difficult task
to balance
the three
but to be a man
demands balance
to sacrifice balance
to sloth and greed
is the greatest crime
a man can commit
upon himself
so every day
we choose
