All That Glitters

Is all gold good, as many allude,
Or is much of it dirty, disgusting, and lewd?

Perhaps it’s the way it was acquired—
Mined, bought, or won through blood once admired.

The value lies in how it came to be,
Though few will ever know its true history.

Yet beauty still shines, sifted and aglow…
Is all gold good? Only the heart can know.
