Of Chefs and Cosmeticians

They ply themselves to sculpting,
to fingernails and foie-gras,
those crafty cutters, carving, trimming.

Creations to delight the senses,
a dab of blush or sauce bearnaise,
a final glance, she's ready for the Features Ed.

Haute couture or haute cuisine 
they'll grace a page
in any food or fashion magazine!
