portrait of a fickle mirror
side a.]
eye of a bird, camel lashes
grapefruit around the jaw
cherry at the cheekbone
skin melts off once an hour
strawberry seeds
should glow pink, glows green
swollen ear piercing
side b.]
valley under the eye
eyebrows like cherub arrows
thin lip, thick lip
tears and wax and
scar down the bird beak
geometrical chin
so much hair, people say
River just dropped the mic. Exits stage left. Wow! I enjoyed everything about this poem. Thank you.
Really enjoyed this!
