The Wasteful Chase of Youth
Another body alteration.
Applying a chemical peel.
The aging process brings frustration.
Never satisfied takes a morbid skill.
Trying to satisfy the youth-obsessed nation.
Snipping or injecting a Botox refill.
Reconstruction by invasive ablation.
Endure the pain for the great revile.
Yet despite your efforts, you’ll lose this war.
Desperately grasping your youth from before.
