Suffering for Beauty

An ancient art
From regions exotic,
Beauty held on
By a thread,

Row upon row,
Of twisting and weaving,
The follicles
Raised from their beds.

From delicate hands
Trained in expertly etching
The loveliest frame
For each face,

The charge of pain
Such a small price to pay
For another whole
Three weeks of grace!


55 Flash Fiction Friday: Compose a story in 55 words and report back to the G-Man at http://g-man-mrknowitall.blogspot.com/ …every Friday.

I was almost stumped this week on finding a nice light topic for Friday Flash 55… until I went for my regular visit to the salon and thought now this is an experience I’m sure our G-Daddy has never had – so I must share it. Eyebrow threading: momentarily painful but the results are well worth it!
