Our modern world values youth & beauty;
To a ridiculous extent it seems.
For everywhere we look these days we see,
Perfect, airbrushed bodies and smooth faces
Radiating on our screens and leaping
From glossy magazines. They are plastered
On billboards and on the sides of buses.
Young celebrities have their own talk shows
And are constantly promoting their books.
O it doesn’t seem to matter a jot,
If they have any age old wisdom or
Life experience. They’re modern emblems
Of beauty; so we feel a deep need
To listen to them. It is most foolish!
