       Menage Memorandum    
        
She wakes, the bride of Frankenstein
Retires to her bathroom shrine
There she showers and towels her hair
And plucks her brows to nearly bare.

She creams her face a mystic sheen
The pallor of an English Queen.
Depilator's her hairy legs
And paints her eyes like Easter eggs.

She manicures her hands and toes
A little powder on her nose
A pinch of cheek to whisper pink
Hangs earrings that would rouse a shrink.

She changes cloths a dozen times
Each time each look she pantomimes.
And challenges the mirrored wall
To show the fairest of them all?    

Then bellows me a piercing "HEY,"  
Good God, "I look like hell today."

I really enjoy seasonal/holiday poetry, yours is no exception, Seymour  

Music, tonal clear & pure,
Caresses the harshest of curves.

Whoops! On second read, I realize this isn't a Halloween poem. My apologies (but I still like the poem)!

Seymour, as long as she doesn't turn green with envy for St. Patricks day she's ok right? Just trying to smile today, thanks for this one.
