Are you beautiful?
by Rommel CruzWill you still be beautiful
Scorching hot
Ensnaring to look at
Without your fifty-dollar makeup
Cosmetically-enhanced smile
Skin-tight clothes
Revealing those plump
surgically-augmented breasts
Salon-fresh shining hair
Or are you just
Lifeless and unappealing
Without those expensive
cosmetic alterations? 12/15/2002 Author's Note: I'm trying to make a point here. I think. LOL. =)

Great poem! |
| Posted by Cathlyn Cartier on 09/03/03 at 06:16 PM yes indeed, it's hard to tell what lies underneath the artificiality sometimes |
| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 12/19/04 at 12:16 PM what you pose is certainly the question of the ages. whether we trust ourselves to be ourselves and leave off the frill. |
