Who Is the Boss

Artistic Simplistic Ruby grapefruit lipstick Glossy shimmer To quell the chap winter crack's The toll takes on immune down body system's That survived the Vitamin Blitz And if we can make up in any way Camouflage that hideous interior To make small gains to feel Superior Then what is the harm For if it was not for the sweaty palm And the heat resonating via the cold remedies Because Doctor's would not prescribe antibiotics You have become comfortably numb An aqua lung siphoning despairing air Home care bed ridden self medicating An artist simplistic unrealistic Carcass Of a failing vessel The mind could have outlived But sadly the body power's the Clock Not the Head or Brain
