Beauty and Beastly

beauty and beastly. 
words that mean both very important things. 
beauty is a word that describes a persons
 truer being and is found only skin deep.
but is  taken to a high and gets jumbled in a court 
of stereotypes. 
beastly is a word that is the ugliness of a persons core 
who thinks they are holy than thou, whose attitude 
sweeps through the air around and degrades 
those not as "beautiful" 
what is beauty? is it what hollywood 
has given and shown in their many movies? 
or is it skin deep?
