I am afraid
After much
Deliberation
Cogitation
On rejuvenation
I have decided
To avoid
Industrial sandblasting
As a cosmetic aid
When I get older
And start to feel
A little frayed
I have earned my lines
And learned them well
They rest there
As a prompt.

At Lenchentide we do the elfskins boil
Lest they return and feed us castor oil

May I recommend Garlic as a good all round purgative and vermicide :-)

Do you eat the garlic or crush it and rub it on the skin?

Ah J, yea verily, there exist a multitude of ancient and crusty tomes (and those are just the booksellers) expounding the virtues of tincture over suppository, mayhap assiduous research and practice will reveal a Gold Standard! :-)

I shall experiment with the mighty bulb! (and to think, I only usually use it for cooking!)
