Mirrors reflect
A girl with brown hair,
Freckles,
And a pimple on
The back of her neck.
I don't mind the view,
But it's very boring.
What can I say?
My attention span is just too short
For 40-line narcissism.
Author notes
So I was supposed to write 40 lines, about "my beauty". I tried for 24 hours but couldn't come up with more than 18. Finally I decided that was a good thing.
