Face Paint

By Karyn Indursky

Being a girl in the world 
requires face paint. 
Extra time is always needed to put it on. 
Everything has to be just right...perfect. 
Foundation, 
powder to set the foundation, 
mascara, 
eye shadow, 
glitter, 
lip gloss, 
lip stick, 
etc. 
fill bathrooms and bedrooms. 
God forbid a girl 
forgets her face paint. 
The world may end 
if a girl is natural 
for just one day.
