Literature Text

Across a face so carefully compiled,
she dragged that unnatural smile;
lips painted red to soften the blow
of utterances so delicately vile.

Within the scrutiny of reflection
she expedites her expression;
applying thwart pigmentation
to portray the right impression.

An image to scorn persistent quandary
to preserve her shallow disguise.
Tonight she is dressed to the nines,
adorned with the best kind of apprise.

Isn't she beautiful?
Appearances: the kind we spend forever keeping up with. We're lost in the images we construct for ourselves.
