Metaphor of My Face -

I have eyes that brown visits the shallows mirrors of my soul Like closed condemn building windows My nose is like an capital “M” like a small sweet potato in the garden My teeth shine like a dinghy light Hair grabbed together liken black cotton candy Each dimple like pimples bumps like sandpaper Yet I smile still like a laughing hernial I Gaze at and ponder my visage In my bathroom mirror Yuck! Revisiting each line, each scar, the depth of furrowed brows meanings, Facial skin liken a white donuts, powder flaked off I have eyes that brown visits the shallows of my mirrored painted soul Like closed condemn building windows My nose is like an capital “M” like a small sweet potato in the garden My teeth shine like a dinghy light Hair grabbed together liken black cotton candy Each dimple like pimples bumps like sandpaper Yet I smile still like a laughing hernial man am I UGLY
