Misti Himes Poet Bio

Beautiful Swine

Beauty without modesty
Oink oink oink
Look at me,
See how I shine,
How loud I squeal,
Yet empty inside,
Is how I feel,
I am unsure of my worth
So I dress up ugly with a skirt,
Parade around 
Take a vote.
Collecting baggage
As I go.
Heavier and heavier
My burden gets
A pig to market
O jiggety jig
Someone Always
Needs a pig
Beauty grows
From the inside out
Timeless shine 
That won't fade out
Beauty is as 
Beauty does
Special and treasured
A treat for your love,
Vanity only dirties
The fair dove
