leann took a good guess with a wank; beautiful is anything and everything you want or see beautiful as being, even the bad shit can be such.
i write for the sake of doing something, i love... i loved reading books, now i enjoy reading poetry though i'm not so good at it. most if not all of what you mention are beyond me, i'm incapable of all but love; for me the beatle's had it spot on with [love is all you need]
as an endeavour, beauty is probably the last thing i'm biased to. unless a fart, shit, or fuck carries within them an inherent beauty, come to think of it, i guess for me they do.

1) Truth
2) Wisdom
3) Love
4) Justice
5) Beauty
I thought to myself that those who would endeavor in poetry must have a bias towards beauty of these five.
What is the BEAUTIFUL?
I just started this thread as...what...a personal reflection for all upon the "beautiful".
