21 Again
written by: Debbie Tunstall
My waist dips in like a cratered zit,
starved from 21st century slimming.
One chunk of chocolate-
clanked between my teeth.
I put on clothes that idealise
a raging sea,
But no one see’s.
No one see’s.
At home later on:
I conceal grey hairs
congragating on my head,
every inch of me aging
pretending I’m 21.
