In the self-proclaimed upper
Echelons of beauty, feelings
Are way down the list of
Important things to take
Care of.

There are bigger
Beasts to tame;
Socials,
Parties,
Networks,
Cameras,
The right angle,
The good side,
The bank account,
The practised sneer

Reserved for
The little ugly people
Trying to be beautiful
With no chance ever
Of being so.

Skin is thin and
Ugliness shows through
Those twisted minds
At the top of their
Imaginary ladders.

Work. Music. Radio. Work. Station pick-up. Work. Walk. Work. Tea. Work. Music. Blog. And breathe.

Thanks, AR, up there in the NorthEast.
