I see my feet
belonged to an eleven year old-
barefoot scars and all
My teeth reflected back
to grade skool photo
smile show the gap
mom said
now show the implant.
I comb some
eighteen year old head
in that old mirror
and wonder why gray.
Where did the bags, sags
extra flesh and weakness
come in the mail?
I cannot see
the brain cells
tho I know
many have gone
before me
This inventory must wait -
I have mail.
