Hiding My Magnificence

Blonde Brunette Redhead Highlights Lowlights No lights Long Short Shorter Shortest I have been a changeling all my life Seeing myself through a monster’s eyes Staring at my hazel orbs, wondering each year Why I do not look like my twelve-year-old self My magnificence hidden from the others Blonde Brunette Redhead Highlights Lowlights No lights Long Short Shorter Shortest Smaller every minute My magnificence safely squirreled away

Thank you Panagiota. I am a master of disguise in real life, especially terrific at disguising my feelings!

I rarely change my appearance; I should be more bold, like you!

My own children do not blink an eye when I enter a room with blue and orange highlights in my mohawk. My grandchildren barely notice either.
