TOO

When the mirror begins
resembling you too closely,
look away. Save what's
left for another day, knowing

it will be there when you
need it. What won't be
there won't matter much,
stuck, as it always is,

in the all-but-used-up
future tense of time.
Redeem your coupons
while you may.

Don't do anything
while you mayn't.
