My Nose Is Growing Old

Yup.
A long lazy September look
in the mirror
say it’s true.
 
I’m 31
and my nose is growing
old.
 
It starts about 1/2
an inch
below the bridge
and strolls geriatrically
down
for another inch or so:
stopping.
 
Fortunately, the rest
of the nose is comparatively
young.
 
I wonder if girls
will want me with an
old nose.
 
I can hear them now
the heartless bitches!
 
“He’s cute
but his nose
is old.”
