Is it too late to get the hang of my face?
What's its secret how to arrange it what light
where does the hair go which muscles clench maybe
some bulging? Should I get into some bulging?
Pucker, don't bulge, they say, or don't but might have to
when addressing me next also what to contract for a smoothing effect
and did anyone get to see my new smile before...you know?
I used to have some looks that got me some looks, certain
face muscles I would use without realizing but then I overthought it
saw too much content about lymphatic drainage and drained
the whole damn thing am I too young or too old for
this drained face? I have had to tell two different therapists
I love makeup because I've lost my face and I'm afraid
they won't help me right if they think the current face is the
real one, the real one has makeup but which makeup is best
for a cheek-biting baby? Not to wear, to bite?
Is this like when you stop doing something for a few
because of work and then you're too old and you never do it again?
I'll get back to it, I'll get back to it, it's just a face hiatus
but you start to think was I ever really into it did I miss
the last great day of my face...
i walked into an Ulta Beauty store a couple weeks ago and then walked out in a panic because i think it might be too late to get used to my face and I really appreciated this poem.
