My image frozen for all time
A moment of indecision
Vision not concentrated
Voice not spoken
I hesitated…
My undoing
My response stilted
My answer too drawling
I paid the price
A mask of molten gold
A crown of gilded metal
A facade of beauty punished.

Loved it, Cheryl! Excellent commentary on our culture. It also made me think “Botox will do that to you!”

I’m glad to be back home and on WP. I sleep a lot to make up for the lost sleep. But much better now.
