Turn off Vanity
Flip it off, like a switch
That you’ve come to realize
Is left On
Much too often.
Brush your hair
Dress in fine clothes
As is your manner
Don’t leave these things
Behind, but
After they’re done
Put them in the corner
Of your mind.
Leave room for more important
Things
Like: an embrace for a friend
A smile that can light up a face
Warm feelings
Conveyed
And heartfelt
Vulnerability.
With turning off Vanity,
You’ve left more room for
Life.
