The world's got better folk,
Since my glasses have got broke.
I now mistake every smirk for a smile.

Biting comments miss their mark
Their expressions lost in dark
& plainest men, now charming, may beguile.

And thus I seek to influence
Yet another's experience
In this vast & wonderous world I now've surveyed

So my plan,
(Now don't you tell! I'm making Heaven out of Hell!)
Is to "misplace" my great-grandmother's hearing aide!
