Not so Fine Lines

How many years
have you contorted your face?
Opened cans,
with your mouth out of place?

Have you spent a lifetime
squinting at the sun,
instead of putting
your sunglasses on?

Is it necessary to hold
your mouth open
when applying mascara
thick and coated?

Must you grit your teeth
while opening a jar
and purse your lips
while driving a car?

Do you stick your tongue out
while tying your shoes?
Do you do these things
without a clue?

Grimacing and twisting
and frowning and such
will carry results
even Botox can’t touch.
