Selling the elixir of youth It sounds so shrewd uncouth Selling meaningful beauty It’s sold as a woman’s duty
What would you do to achieve? That which the commercials deceive Women buy into the hype, at what cost Spending obscene amount of money lost
Pressuring woman to feel less inferior A fake false façade on the exterior The true essence of a woman lives within A smile, her luminescent grin
Her radiant inner beauty shines through Naturally cultivated as she grew The light Shines in her eyes and in her face From God’s beauty and loving Grace
A modern quatrain with rhythm AABB
The commercials try to sell creams and lotions in elixirs while the stars are drinking babies blood to keep them young. There should be a warning sign on these labels women buy into the height spending thousands of dollars to keep your use to try to look like that star on TV but not even they look like that.
