Every girl wants a perfect body
A curvy body;
A straight spine
An hourglass shape
A derrière so bouncy
So they go under the knife
just to please a man;
an absolute complication
so attractive at early age
At 60 looking disgusting
Some can’t sit
Some body botched
Using to cause distraction
Some die at the process
Family mourning;
a death of a future mother;
A daughter
A sister
i ask
which do you prefer
Is it a pancake?
or a problematic derrière?

Well written this poem takes on the plastic surgery industry and might as well take on makeup and fashion. In a world of vanity we sell our bodies and souls. Nicely told in this poem. Lovely
Thank you so much
