Wrinkles

Botoxing wrinkles
would be great
if it were not
for one feature
poison into my body
does not entice
after all my wrinkles
are me -
more than anything
having had them
since the age of 15.
They have grown
with me, got one for
each time I fell in love
each child gave me plenty
and the death of parents
yielded more -
fights - sadness - joys
grand kids add a few extra
proud of my wrinkles
I am not but
they tell my story
as well as anything.
