This Is What I Think

What does a woman want?
a beautiful skin? No
Beauty queen to be seen? No!
This is what I think

Every woman beautifying
competes with naked nature
to become its princess 
this too could be wrong

This is what I think
a very beautified woman
points towards a deficiency
a malnourishment of love

This is what I think
if she beautifies the hair
and paints body with cream
hidden advertisements they are
