Today's Mirrored Vanity !

I casually look in the mirror,A single hair
stands up appearing so *****!How may i go
out in public?Will i be a freakish looking
subject?A pimple or zit appears out of
nowhere,To friends or kids,will i assuredly
scare?It's the size of a dime,When i hide,
is this a crime?Good looks have always
escaped my clutches,Are my looks,out in
public,my permanent crutches?Plastic
surgery is on the rise,It seems so
expensive,I cannot really afford,lasered
eyes?I cannot afford health insurance,Often
it does'nt financially assist,This
insurance,i really detest!stares by others
are so degrading,I don't want or need a
public rating!People gaze in front of
mirrors so vaine,Today,how can anyone dare
walk around,looking so plain?11-22-2005'.
