#robust - Hello Poetry

I'd rather be a raisin than a grape With no juice or sweetness Desolate of hydration Dried via sun Wrinkled and battered Has endured strife Became bitter over time But I'd rather be wine than a raisin Potent and strong Powerful in simplistic form Living only to intoxicate those who consume me For so naturally time absorbs life Making one **** with age Dry from existence Then robust through struggle I'd rather be a raisin than a grape, but I'd rather be wine than a raisin.

THE GRAPE THE RAISIN AND THE WINE

I'd rather be a raisin than a grape With no juice or sweetness Desolate of hydration Dried via sun Wrinkled and battered Has endured strife Became bitter over time But I'd rather be wine than a raisin Potent and strong Powerful in simplistic form Living only to intoxicate those who consume me For so naturally time absorbs life Making one **** with age Dry from existence Then robust through struggle I'd rather be a raisin than a grape, but I'd rather be wine than a raisin.

dawn trains all her guns, feeble light fights robust night; the world's in the dark!
