If I could...
I would have the
long

looooong

legs of a model,
A TINY
tiny
t
iny
WAIST,
beautiful hands
(to wear those byooooootiful RINGS),
and flowy, wavvvvvy locks.
I could wear any sunglasses I wanted
(not just the ones with nose pads)
And still look modest in shorts.
I could be a bit taller,
taller than this
FIVE
FOOT
FRAME
and still look good
in peeptoe

I would have glowing
smoooooooooooth skin.
BUT
Despite
wishingwishingwishing
for the perfect body
I still love my
palm-sized lumps,
my blemished spotted uneven skin,
my thick thighs,
and my ugly hands.
At least I can wear high heels
to make me
TALLER.

my wife’s always late
so I wailed: *“Hurry up, dear
or it'll be light...
You know, the early ghost
catches the faint-hearted”*
“Hang on,” she howled
(I’d died on the rope, you see)
*“just my finishing touches
with my mas-scare
and a bit more of my scare spray”*
and then she floated out
into the dying room
(we don’t have living rooms, you understand)
looking just boo-tiful

Behind you are only the lessons learned,
adHere in the now.
Idolize who You have Become.
Only you can be the Youniverse
you wish to be.
Be Younique be-You-tiful
and never let meaningles Theys
Dictate your days.

Most days of the year a visit here
would involve a rinse blow and trim,
but on Halloween it’s a whole different scene
As the Queens of the night wander in.
Our regular staff has this day off-
It helps keep their heads in the zone.
To help “Jason” and “Freddie” get themselves ready
We’ve beauticians from good funeral homes,
If you wish to appear as a zombie or Ghoul
These girls will help get your “Freak “on
By the time you stagger up out of your chair
You’ll look like you’re long dead and gone.
With a wicked gleam they will paint your *** green-
You may fear it won’t ever come off.
Some bolts on your neck and, oh what the heck,
You can tell folks you’re Boris Karloff.
If a ghost is your quest you will be most impressed
You will look just like Lizzie the Queen
It’s quite the parade as they head out our door
To march in the West village scene.
“You look Boo-tiful dears”, I say to all here
As we all celebrate Halloween.

Heartbroken souls spinning
such beau -tiful webs
drawing in oth \|/ ers of a like nature
a zest for life even when all is crumbling
like the stat ues in the ancient cities
cracks in the thick exterior shell
pouring forth creati -vity as the heart
oozes out of the body for all to see
its light undulating
with a dying
life a shell
intact does
not let beauty
escape but from
the depths of the
decaying a new
life
bursts
forth
towards
perfection
glittering down to
rest on all it touches
the shat- tered
rising from the
ashes

Your soul
A place all your own
But meets light at opening of
Your beautiful brown eyes that only
Can be stared into for moments
At a time for the beauty
within is blinding

radiant soul
a promising positive

you and i both get judged
because of our bodies, laughs, faces
but we also get told that we are beautiful
by ones we like/love
many people say things they dont mean
not knowing it could affect you terribly
they continue to do what they do
all i can say is be you
because you are
be-you-tiful

Come as you are
So that i can know you for who you truly are
Show me all your flaws
Girl there's beauty in the scars
We are all but human
So your value ain't determined by another man
So just be you and it will turn out be-you-tiful
Then you'll realize nothing's more lovier than you
