I vow....

One day I saw a bald lady ,
Being irresistant , I questioned her politely .
" How do you cope with this hairstyle ? " I asked .
Like a Superstar swelled with pride ,
" Well , I am very lucky " she replied -
" I dont have to spend hours on stores ,
as I need not hunt for shampoos anymore .
I have stopped watching advertisements ,
as silly campaigns interrupt my entertainment .
I cancelled my subscription of beauty magazines ,
all my styling products and gels are safe in dustbin .
I hardly spend time gazing at mirror ,
my concentration on work has improved much better... "
Her cheerful replies tickled my brain ,
Set me thinking her appeal to refrain -
what if a section of society starts following ?
Immediately my mind started calculating -
So much shampoo would lie unused ,
Imagine how much it would affect the one who produces ?
Their profits would swap into loss -
so many futures will be on toss .
Think of the condition of advertisement agencies -
Their will be a major shift in other products strategies ;
They will lose stupid yet lucrative campaigns -
Poor chaps , they would need to start using their brains !
Recession will dawn in modelling industry -
resulting a dip in their pay - an issue to be noted seriously .
The loss to magazines will be highest -
profits will dwindle , even of the mightiest .
Beauty Parlours will no more have any key role ,
So many products will stop being sold .
Ancillary industries will have to be shut down -
Oh my God , people will be jobless almost in every town .
With so many things affecting economy , how will India grow ?
So I take a vow -
I will continue and support of the cycle thats going on ,
to save my few pennies I cant play with the country's economy
I should contribute , in my way , to keep money flowing ...

The theme and the idea was great but the poem is kinda more a story
As a story I would rate it 99% but I guess for a poem there are a few things missing
But the idea is great and the person who had this idea seems to think in nice, interesting and twisted ways!
