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
