Milk Mustache'

would you tell me,
even for a little while,
if i were to have a
milk mustache?

although the playful
little coincidence
can make so much
laughter
the question
remains.

i walk in a room,
milk on my upper lip,
and people giggle.

i giggle along
acting as if i don't know
about the little joke
that's going on.

that little coincidence
can bring so much laughter.
but will you tell me
if i have a milk mustache'?
