Inner Worth
Beauty’s Intention
Acknowledging
Beauty
Can be
Different for
Each person.
For some,
Genuine beauty
Has to
Include appearance.
Justifying attraction as the
Key to happiness.
Likewise,
Many others
Need to
Observe beauty;
Pretending that
Quality is only
Revealed through
Sight.
True beauty,
Unappreciated by most, should
Value the inner
Worth over surface.
Xeroxed beauty and
Yearning for outer perfection
Zaps true beauty’s ultimate intention.

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
