Yes, it is a fact; She was beautiful when she was young.
But
today as she has grown old and the flower of youth has wilted.
The glow that attracted the flocks of people no longer
exists. Her lovers have all been unfaithful, using her to satisfy their own
lusts and then despising her for growing less appealing.
The marks of misuse are evident everywhere and attempts to
cover them by artificial means fall short and everyone is aware of her present
condition.
Only those who have known her intimately know how far she
has fallen and despair at the truth,
“The rose has lost it’s bloom.” They agree reluctantly with
the poet’s lament;

Old Time is still a-flying:
And this same flower that smiles to-day
To-morrow will be dying.
Would that this was a view to the future but alas it is a
backward glance.
It is true that there those who still clamor for her favor,
not for love but what they can yet get from her. A pretense with guile under
lying; “I would thy new lover be” stated so beguilingly.

this Memorial Day remembering how she has killed her children.
Her name is;
