Such a pleasant evening

sitting in front of a mirror

Such a pleasant evening

sitting in front of a mirror

Laughing with my reflection

Stories shared

so many we could not stop

I noticed a few grey hairs

Wrinkles yet to Photoshop out

The glasses look a bit gay

I should wear sunnies

Appear mysterious

Put a feather in my cowboy hat

so others will wonder if I am indigenous

Some tats on my neck

Perhaps a foreign racially variant tart

hanging on my arm

would make me look hip

A diamond stud in my ear

will deflect my look

of perverted poetic poverty

I will whiten my teeth

Smile more sympathetically

Perhaps I will disguise myself as a fool

who spends the day talking to his reflection in this mirror

as the world around melts away
