The man in the mirror

It is an impossible mission to hide the cracks of time
A laborious lifetime of labours, age advances are indeed an uphill climb

So from a plastic pallette
he applys his masquerade, meticulously masking any marks of imperfections..betwixt that morning ritual crusade

Eventually, tho alas never satisfied, he places the ‘Magic makeup’ on the habitual shelf..One can only do the best one can
to appease one’s inner emotional self
