In a world of ripped blue jeans  
and scuzzy graphic hoodies  
and puffy Nike sneakers,  
aim to be a ~~fashion~~ moral paragon.  
  
There's never a wrong time  
to be fit for a ~~runway walk-off~~  
display of your ethics.  
  
How will our descendants   
remember you?  
For your clothing choices  
or your conscience?   
  
¿Porque no los dos?  
Don't fall for false choices.  
  
Carry an awe for beauty  
and the art of truth  
onto the battlefield  
for our existence.  
  
Part goddess,   
part glam  
pledged humanitarian,  
fully unforgettable.  
  
Don your helmet.  
Raise your hem.  
Fluff your train.  
Carry those gilded layers.  
  
Because, truly.  
Any world worth saving —  
is worth doing   
while looking *fab*.
