Yes. We seem to not know when to stop. Botox is supposed to enhance, yet it often disfigures mentally and physically.
If wrinkles appear, then they probably were meant to be.When taking away something, it always must be replaced, and , yes in some places it may work, yet, I wonder mentally, if the balance is every addressed.
Best wishes,

All that just to look a few years younger, and in the long run it only ages people more. Interesting thoughts in such a few well thought words.

Extreme vanity can make people take regrettable measures on facial and body alterations. Great poem on the dangers of Botox as your picture fully illustrates. Nicely done.

Comment from michaelcahill
The shocking results of some of the cures should act as more of a deterrent, but they don't seem to. Considering how completely unnatural some people have turned out after surgery it is amazing how many chance it. Thank God we are so naturally gorgeous, Right? hahaha. Great piece. On the money. mikey

This is a strong warning against botox with a powerful accompanying picture. I like your message and share your sentiment, and feel that you have delivered it in the best possible way; in a concise, factual poem which essentially is a health warning. Well done!

That's good description of what vanity is in so few words. The picture fits the thoughts here really well. I think you hit the ole nail right on its proverbial head. I enjoyed reading and writing this response for this well written ultra short poetic format... John

Creative work here. Short poetry captures my imagination due to its need to be direct. When it's direct and creative, it's even more of a draw. You've accomplished that here. Good job.

Boy, you sure got this one right. That's all you hear about and see on TV. Plastic Surgeons are some of the richest people in the world. The picture that you used sort of looks like one of my old girl friends years ago (ha). Bill

Comment from adewpearl
Powerful choice of illustration
strong rhymes
good alliteration in dimpled dots
strong social commentary - I will never understand why people place their health at risk to avoid a wrinkle - do they actually believe it's that important to hide the fact that each year they get older just like everyone else does? Brooke

There are many horror stories related to cosmetic surgery. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read.
