Your town isn't all I heard it to be...

Choppy Recollections

It seems so far away. How can I gather these thoughts and pour them onto here? Let's see... I heard of your town as heaven on earth where men can earn more than their worth. And in this town, I did see great things, ornate things, and I was awestruck. But I also saw heinous things, oozing venom, and I wasn't pleased. I am a man who preaches equality, m'dear, and this in your town I did not see.

But there was one, a Lebanese gem, who spent ages with me. I looked at him, he looked at me, it was special. I saw beauty, he saw... well, I don't know what he saw. These grand buildings, lush gardens, they could not compare to his beauty, his radiant personality. And then I admitted to you that indeed, in your city is found true beauty, a beauty of character.
