      Sagging creeping legs
      she lotions without success
      powders jowls
      about a sinking neck
      paints the puckered brow
      she still considers kissable
      and while denim spans
      a broadening beam
      with firmness falling fast
      she speaks of inner beauty
      which the outer hides
      except from her of course
      and a magic mirror
      the years have belied.

      from Issue #7 - Summer 1997
