Premium Member Essense

Above all and end
I stand in my skin
I am whose I am
A child of the King
the permanents 
element of being
 ultimate nature 
as opposed existence
 the essence what it is

Only one
of my assets
qualifies
as glory crown.
Pampered hair
plumps my ego
and has drained my pockets dry.

Permanents,
dyes and rinses,
cuts and sets
salon shampoos,
never missed
hair appointments,
as if it matters at end..
