The latest statistic I just read for cosmetic surgery is so disturbing. Just think...
Neofrankensteins
Mary Shelley prophesied in writing
Of a character grotesquely devised
A macabre figure of imagination
Intentionally dehumanized
Unable to turn from his appearance
The amalgamation of bits and pieces
Stolen architecture of the nameless
Genesis of life, death toll increases
The original of all surgically altered
Prediction of medical experiment
Disturbing novel, magnum opus
Reconstruction now prevalent
Beneficial lifesaving procedures
Prolonging the inevitable demise
Individual's existence hangs in balance
Whose successful conclusion vivifies
However, in pursuit of eternal youth
Where age is indeterminate
Daughters become elder sisters
Neofrankenstein brides deliberate
Again, unable to tear our gaze
Faces frozen and filled to appease
92% of participants are women
Let's start "love thyself" sanctuaries!
