Question: How come ancient comedies are so tragic!?
*****
Any fool can see the gold,
it glimmers differently!.
And, where there’s diamonds
on the ground
there’s many buried deeply!.
Copper, tin and bitumen,
from ancient times ‘til now,
have nurtured lust
in iron dust
and rusted souls completely…
somehow!.

Might I suggest dropping the "ly" from "completely" to make it "complete"!.!.!.!?
It seems to work better rhythmically (to me)
