Face Peeling Lotion Poem by RIC BASTASA

you need a face lift
but that would be too abrupt and expensive
you need a little distance
from friends and even foes
you're too good to be true
and God does not even recognize you
so you need a face lift
to shorten your nose a bit
and lengthen your short eyebrows
tighten your cheeks
and give your forehead lesser glow
there is a need for more changes
to make you real
so you may survive
the surprises of your oppressors
you need some scissors
to cut their sensors
take your break
you need to be bleak
don't be so cool
you need to be cruel
sometimes perhaps
too much goodness
makes the mess
