Getting Ready to be Served
June 11, 2013
Yawn. The beauty emerges from her slumber,
peeling her face cream marinade off like skin, revealing a freshly primed visage.
She goes to the tanning salon, ready to be baked to a perfect golden color.
Next, she scurries to the hair salon to have her trimmings removed.
Then she goes to the gym to cut off any remaining fat.
Now, it’s time for her fitting;
she’s prodded, pricked, and poked.
Finally, it’s time for dinner.
