An Ode to the Cosmetic Industry

So I found this poem type thing somewhere that I don't even remember and I just thought it would be fun to share it with who ever comes across my blog, which is like 0. I'm basically typing this for myself. COOL! LOL 

FOREVER ALONE ON THE INTERNET! ;) HAHA JKKK BUT NO REALLY... 

HERE IT IS. 

It’s often said that “Love is blind”;

If that were true, perhaps we’d find

We’d still be seen as beautiful, although we’re slightly older.

But research shows, a different truth—

That beauty’s seen in fertile youth—

So industries arise to fool the eye of the beholder.

It may seem cruel; it can’t be fair,

But flawless skin and shiny hair

Are hallmarks of attraction, so perhaps it’s no surprise

This aspect of biology

Gives rise to cosmetology—

A billion-dollar industry that’s based on telling lies
