Beauty Contest

Beauty Pageant Naked as a vintage grape is Vasalina Virginitita Glowing oily in a noon day Sunday smile A Spanish flower power child in full bloom On display outside she wears no shoes or clothes Pure thoughts fill her vacuous minds emptiness Stripped of meaning walking queenly as she goes Almost serenely collegiate with an air of confidence Discretely open, side by side with her narrow thoughts As narrow as the cobblestone streets she walks on On campus and later into the hearts of fans and judges Who grade her on the scale as a perfect 8 Beauty contests start this way Separate the pretty from the ugly ones For gifts and fame so she states abruptly Step aside my ugly friends and followers Vasalina must claim her prize By virtue of being pretty since you are not
