Beauty is the bottom line
I am told
The equation:
Youth plus beauty equals lovability
With beauty an ever-decreasing value
As age increases

Female value
Depreciates faster
Than male
Which is why older men, even poor
Can look good
Be rated worthy

My chances of
getting laid with love
Have shrunk in proportion
To my rating according to the equation

Despite my increasing sexual power,
Communication skills, lovingness
Unquenchable fire, passion
And capacity for pleasure

I am a better lover than
Twenty years ago
But men wanted me then
While now, I find myself
Shelved
In the name of
Beauty

I don’t believe it
Somewhere must be a man
Who hasn’t swallowed
That poison
