Lookin’ Good

Now ladies, in this society we must look are very best at all times.
Not a hair out of place or one gray strand
a showin’.

Not a wrinkle on our face we’re allowed , we dare not smile-
Wrinkles around our eyes, around our mouth
No we dare not smile.

If any body part begins to sag, off to a plastic surgeon we do run
A lift here and tuck there our body parts stretched tight
We’rea lookin’ like we’re about to snap., just like those little ole gals
who’s been a stretched and twisted to be a national celebrity.

If we gain an ounce, we diet for the rest of our life
Cause we have to be
size 0
to please society.

Now I wear designer clothes
The finest silks and linens, I do wear
The best designer shoes of moderate heel
They say in fashion magazines and on celebrity TV
I have to wear stiletto heels, to be the best dressed woman of fashion, this
year.

To my boutique I do run
I sit upon a crushed velvet miniature chair
Dear Mr. Debonair
I need a pair of black satin stiletto heels
As Mr. Debonair slides them upon my dainty feet
I try to stand...............................................I cannot get my balance
I fall into the exquisite crushed velvet miniature chair
My face turns red
Mr. Debonair looks down his nose and rolls his eyes
For I cannot wear, stiletto heels.

The moral of this story is to be content on who you are
and
do not wear, stiletto heels.

Now, dear Bonnie you made me smile and inkedgoddess too .... you girls!
Size O! Gosh! How beautiful are some wise old ladies who are their own selves, wrinkles comprised, white hair, natural, radiating mystery of their own. I can't see those heads who have not one hair out of place. Whenever I go to the hairdresser I say I want my hair WILD!  I want the feeling of a constant breeze in my hair ...
You captured the situation wonderfully, dear Bonnie. The golden middle way surely is the best ... for fun stillettos might be great ... as long as no obstacles come along!
Love and hugs. Margherita

At the mall there was a new shop called The Naughty Lady. Well...My girlfriend and I went in to see the black lace, shimmering material, shiny leather and high, high, high heels.There was a real pretty pair of boots with very,very high heels.So brave me decided to try them on. Couldn't stand in the silly things. I laughed so hard I was in tears. Told my girlfriend to try on some of that sexy stuff. She just laughed and said "No Way." This is how this silly poem came about. Glad it gace you a smile.
Love Bon-Bon
