revenge is a dish best served with salt & pepper hair

i'm at that age now
where my handsomeness is fading
by the day
i'm starting to look more and more
like my fourth grade teacher
mrs. socket - that hideous educational troll
it gets a little more gory
with each pass of a mirror
some days it's too much to take
which one of you assholes
stapled an old chewed boot
to my face, while i was passed
out on the jack?
i'm at that stage now
where my handsomeness is fading
by the day
and she still looks as young & ripe as ever
but the fat lady has yet to sing
and nature's got a taste for irony
and just when she gets settled
into a mrs. socket skin of her own
i'll get my first glance at distinguished
looking back at me in the bathroom mirror
