If beauty is in eye of beholder, is ugly too?
Forget all those reality television shows that say you have to be tall, spaghetti-noodle thin, giraffe-necked and ridiculously beautiful to be a model.There is a model agency seeking people who are the polar opposite of this type. You can be as huge as a tank or as shriveled as a raisin. You can have a zillion body piercings, dark circles under your eyes, or look like death warmed over.

You may be older than dirt and have a face that makes dogs and small children run across the street. If you are a gal or guy who falls into any of these categories, you are probably just the sort this Brit-based modeling agency wants.

Beauty Pageant or Sexual Farce? (video)

It's a "Farce"! She is such a pretty girl. Her shape fits well into a mold. Her mind removed, her body's sold. She does exactly what she's told.
 
He is such a brave young man. If his brain can't then violence can. His mind was drained since life began of the compassion he once had.

Why go on living in the past? We just uphold this sexual farce. Past is past is past is farce. Why go on living in the past?

If air to breathe is hard to find in her tight mold, she doesn't mind. She fits in well; she's one of a kind. Her processed mind upholds the lies.

He, in turn, plays out the part we tempted him with from the start. She, in turn, plays out the part dictated to her by the past.

It's a "Cosmetic Plague"! Being honest is no means of survival. So we avoid our inner-feelings like the plague.
 
Unreal beauty (artist Claire Duguid)
This is what it takes to comply with the image society will accommodate. But things aren't what they seem when they're partially hidden behind walls of pretense -- built for our peace of mind. The barriers between us are maintained by our acceptance of the roles others choose to define.

In a world of competition life's portrayed as a contest where we're forced to live by making gains at others' expense.

But no one's really gaining when perpetual conflict's the result of our relationships. We don't need this cultural cosmetic division. It upholds the self-interest on which the system feeds, A decolonized consciousness, one of mutual respect, is the only way to cure this cosmetic disease.

It's a "Mice Race"! Dawn breaks, but it isn't a new day. Men like sheep, women like mice -- all caught in the rat race. Take a closer look at what's going on today. Are we justified in having nothing to say? Are we justified in having nothing to say? Are we not aware of a feeling of humiliation? Don't we have to sell ourselves, keep on saying, "Sir." Are we really satisfied that everything's okay?

Conditioned from the start, and controlled from all directions, swamped by a normality that mustn't be questioned. Ignorance is only a form of self-deception. Are we justified in having nothing to say? 
 
Take a closer look at what's going on today. Are we really satisfied that everything's okay? Perhaps, after all, too much thinking doesn't pay.
