I totally relate to this poem. I also have gray poking out of chestnut hair and don't wear makeup except on the rare occasion that I go out (which is actually never). I used to be a big clubber, so I'm especially aware that I'll never go to a rave again, or enjoy that magical period of ''getting ready'' that lasts half the night. Ugh. I'm really not dealing with aging well.

Lol! I could've written your review myself (apart from the clubbing part!) but getting ready to go out these days isn't part of the fun anymore, getting out the house without snot or toothpaste on my clothes (the kids not mine!) is a good result! Thank you so much for your empathetic comments :) Ageing mums unite! Kindest regards, Debra :) x

The message you are trying to convey and the method you used to present it are good. I like the idea of the two parts of your personality conversing with one another. However, I have always heard that one should never use red ink. It makes the article very difficult to read.

I have theses kinds of talks with myself. They get less as I get older. I was always kind of a tom boy. Now, I learn to adapt. Long dresses hide the stubble so I do not have to worry about it right away. I wear the wrinkles in pride. I have redesigned myself as a old lady. Great work.

Comment from Judd7
It is actually very well done. There is an absence of soul qualities that one comes to value as he grows older (wiser). After 30 you can toss that Barbie Doll look for a serene, wise, kind look that is 10 times as pretty. The poem is great. Poet Q.

Comment from Jay Squires
Fighting the good battle! This is a fun-NEEE poem.
You admirably crafted a poem that is visually pleasing experience that transferred verbally, poetically, humorously to a competition between devil and angel--each speaker identified by color.
Great job!

I really love the thought and then the flattering comments, I really like this one. That's how people seem to think! Great, expressive flow in the narrative, there is nothing I could add that would add to what you have written! Well written, and good luck in the competition. Blessings, Roy.

This is a very humorous and fun poem for the contest. I like the two different voices. And by the way, there's no toning the boobs, when they go, they go. Mine sink lower every year - lol.
