Idly plucking the...

odd stray hair,

carefully waxing the pins,

I get to thinking...

the double standards

of women...

or to be more exact...

this woman.

Fickle is the word that

springs to mind.

When it comes to men

my bête noire is male vanity

i.e.

toupees

the proliferation of men

dying their hair to hide the grey.

Hair transplants.
Comb overs

Eye lifts

Face lifts

Botox

Comfort in their own skin
oozes sex appeal

Grey hair makes a man look more distinguished
Dyed hair... a prat.

Wrinkles signal they've been around the block...
experienced in the ways of the world.

Lines around the eyes...
sunbeams from the solar warmth
within.

Face lifts...
Try reading a lifted face...
Mills and Boon.

Untouched visage...
a tome...
War and Peace... 
worthy of a toothing.

Toupee...
a muff by any other name.

Comb over...
words fail me!
