My Nose


“How unfortunate”

“A minor blemish”

An imperfection

is how they see my nose.

 

“A pigsty button”

“Cute impression”

A back-handed compliment

is how they belittle me.

 

“Quick fix”

“A cheap connection”

A plastic surgery

is what they want me to do.

 

It’s my body

My face

Nose

yet they can’t stand the “flaw”.
