"Getting sick of married life? Tired of your ageing wife? Well, you can create her face anew With plastic skin and pink tissue!"
"Yes, in only three short days, She'll be worthy of your praise. Just send a cheque to this address And trust us, friend, we'll sort the rest!"
The bill-boards scream in the night As wolves in the canopy. Like lasers, they seethe and cut Through the diamonds of your wet eyes, Convincing you all too soon that You are not already perfect.
A poem about impossible standards. #4 in the Distant Dystopia anthology.
