SEEKING OUT PERFECTION
(by Curmudgeon)

Hide that silver in your hair
Wax that which is hairy
Peel away the outer layer
Scrub that which is scaly



Whiten what you feel is dull
Implant what you lack
Lift up everything that sags
Botox for the cracks


Photoshop those lines and spots
Colorize the eyes
Brush away the pores of skin
Slenderize those thighs


Auto-tune who cannot sing
Lip-sync at the show
Play tracks to enhance the sound
You think that no one knows


We can't believe in what we see
Or trust in what we hear
Vanity is run amuck
It's something we should fear


The smoke and mirrors of it all
Trick us with deception
And makes us feel less than we are
When seeking out perfection


Curmudgeon Out!

I really like the blog today and 2nd what you had to say
But I would be a hypocrite if to you I don't admit
I primp and preen, tweeze and fuss, look in the mirror way too much
Oh Lord help me look within, remove the dirt and stain of sin
Repair, renew my inner man the scalpel's in your loving hand
