Perfect Imperfect

Framed blemish. Heavy as a tumor. Solid as surrender. Dig into epidermis. Uproot the moment. Unclean kernel. Hard, cold reflection. Show me pretty. Clogged pores. Yellow teeth. Rheumy eyes. Ugly is as ugly does. Smile at the mirror. Try to forget. This is you. Forever unlovely. Look at what you did. Children are so cruel. Rose scented perfume. Disguise the stench. Excrete from every orifice. Sweat soaked lace. Urine stained ribbons. Paint and purify the meat. Shave the head. Smear on foundation. Sever the lips. Dust with powder. Extract the teeth. Cauterize with lipstick. Amputate the feet. Brush on eye shadow. Saw through hip joints. Smudge on blush. Open up the abdomen. Suture with mascara. Remade. Smiling through distortion. Deny the trauma. Repair the shell. Convincingly Beautiful. Improbably clean.
