A Fellow Much Younger than Me

     In every mirror I see
       a fellow much younger than me

     But when they take my photo
       ~ where does tit-for-tat go

Unfortunately, my dear Gershon, the mirror for me is now synchronised with the photograph, hence I avoid both and prefer images extracted from memory with time set to thirty years ago. Cheers my friend...

DMV photos don't count. The lighting is always bad. Always believe the mirror.
