The Tongue

How beautiful is your tongue?

Or haven’t you ever really considered your tongue in terms of its attractiveness?

You don’t look at it very often in the mirror.

You don’t go on shopping trips for it.

You don’t have a weekly appointment at the tongue beautician.

A.von and Revl.on don’t sell cosmetics for it.

You don’t have to diet to get it back in shape.

Men don’t ogle it or whistle at it or write poems about it.

It doesn’t appear on the centerfold of P.lay.boy.



Yet it is your tongue, more than the form of your face, or the dimensions of your figure, or the lavishness of your wardrobe, or the size of your income, which determines whether or not you are a beautiful person.



From the book "Beautycare for the Tongue" by LeRoy Koopman
