This poem was based off of Katie Makkai's spoken word poem "Pretty", which basically makes a statement and really criticizes today's expectations of girls and of today's ideas of beauty.  I piggybacked on this idea by creating two distinct sets of haikus, the first set describing the kind of consumer, superficial prettiness while the second discusses the hidden beauty of a person's character, rather than appearances.  In the picture I separate these two haikus, and to match the Eastern form the haikus are meant to be read from the left to the right, from the top to the bottom.  The image is a mask superimposed on a glowing image of a face.
