Scruffy hair, tangled. Unsettled.
Baggy clothes. A bulkier body.
Wrinkled face, crow's feet.
Much too plain.
Chapped feet in worn out slippers.
The appearance,
a common aversion, disrelished.
But be cautious
when you dismiss me.
Indigence is yours
when you're that swift
to judge a book by its cover.
