To Mama With Love
by Anthony (Tony) Sharp

This is my 5th published book and I think possibly my best. I believe it would make an excellent film and I am hopeful someone might take this task on...

ugly

one i was born to
one i had to learn
what the stars cast as true
the hellish streets did burn,

how the light dimmed
in sly shadowy shades
so that when i sinned
to do only as fate bades,

that the flesh is weak
just as was said before
for pleasure it does seek
to whims such a whore,

upon the beauty an ugliness lies
that no penance will make right
how heart and soul tries
still,darkness is to the night.

and to the night one does so often go...and you might be surpised at how many 'nights' there are...
and how much beauty lies upon ugliness...
at times...
yes?
& vice-versa...
