Is Beauty worth it?

A purebred pedigree dog

Beautiful beyond repair

Stars of the dog world

Spoiled and loved by human hands

 

But locked up and handled for their beauty

No freedom or control over choices made

Is being beautiful really worth it?

 

I would rather be a lone wolf

Unseen by the world

Free to do whatever I want

Ugly and alone

 

I would rather be feared than loved

Hungry and tired but not spoiled

Strong instead of weak and protected

So is beauty really worth it?
