I'm not vain

I'm not vain

I don't care if this looks silly
I don't care if this look frightens kids 
No biological warfare is gonna kill me
Or burn my eye lids .

It was not designed for personal comfort .
Its not an item enjoyable to wear
My face sweats inside
A small price to pay indeed . 

Who is to moan ?
If it keeps me alive ?
