A few poorly thought out words on beauty

We are told what beauty is. How sad is that? How confining? Beauty touches us without examination. That's its power. An examination would reveal the crassest capitalist motivation, built on a flimsy excuse of symmetry and youth. What an awful way to limit our world. This notion of beauty, skin-deep and photoshopped, is a poorly mapped territory. It is a single sensory input away from complete hollowness. I want to do more than see beauty. Beauty should be a multi-sensory event. It should be found everyday, everywhere. It should be the sacred in our ordinary profane existence. It should be.....

It should......

I don't know what it should be.

Maybe I just wish I was pretty too.
