Fantasy Creme


This can erase years from your face,

cover blemishes, sun spots, crow's feet.

You will glow in the dark capturing

hearts, especially those of rich men.

 

Now you will secure a position of

prominence with a prestige company.

You are to be admired by all, heads

turning whenever you enter a room.

 

Coarse dry skin can become

divine, silkier than angel wings.

The alluring scent of this balm

enraptures legions of devotees.

 

Old friends will stare at a new you.

Baffled, they ask if you had surgery.

With a smug but unwrinkled smile,

you point to your precious ointment.

 

Decades of time, grime and slime

magically erased.  See fantastic

transformation as you stand beguiled

by glowing beauty in your mirror.


Envision flying down boulevards,

patronizing haute fashion shops, driven

by limos...all this and more now from

Fantasy Creme at an amazingly low price.
