Unreachable Love

Man loves in true love's name like loving apes
Which are sans hair half-clothed in gilt array.
Can they not see mire under human shapes?
All sows like wallowing in watery clay.
But you, who are unknown to mundane eyes,
On earth in mortal flesh...

Contrasting images are deployed to create tension for engaging people. A bleak vibe is successfully devised in various aspects. The structure of the poem is skillfully organized. The writing involves me deeply in the narrative so that everything seems to happen before me.
