My boyfriend always wants me to know
that i am beautiful
he tells me even with acne
even on bad hair days
like today
i wear glasses, a ragged ponytail
and a man is selling me a strand
of jeweled flowers
he says is 5 dollars
i tell him i want to make it
a bracelet, i show my wrist
and i wonder as he slips it over skin
whether it's beauty that compels him
to say i can have it for 3

Yay! 
Does it compel him? Hmmm... that's a good question. I know they do studies of whether people considered "more attractive" get more perks in life, promotions, raises, jobs, etc.
