SELF PORTRAIT

A skin, bit rough, and brownish fair; A rounded face and short black hair; Fine vignettes on a wide forehead that seems to think the ways ahead. Cherry red lips, thick and pouty; Two big ears, a nose that's humpy; Big black eyes with flickery wink seem to fathom the way you think. Self portrait poetry contest 7th place

I just adore the playful way that you undertook this prompt while still giving a glimpse of yourself. The vignettes thinking ahead and the flickery wink were my favorite parts! Congratulations :)
