Unwillingly Miranda wakes,
Feels the sun with terror,
One unwilling step she takes,
Shuddering to the mirror.

Is old and gray and dirty;
Twenty-nine she was last night;
This morning she is thirty.
“A Lady Who Thinks She Is Thirty” Ogden Nash

Slipped through a hole in your pocket somewhere—
That's the blues, too, and bad!
“The Blues” Langston Hughes

Your eyes appearing slightly crossed
Above your CPAP mask,
Which you start taking off,
The mask that saves you from death
By apnea but makes you look like a snorkeler
From dreamland or an escapee from a tear gas fight, …

For a while, Los Angeles and New York City were like yin and yang. You would go to Los Angeles to wear colorful exercise gear and eat local organic and be on television, and you would go to New York to wear no colors at all, spend a lot of money on rent in order to be murdered, and eat more cream cheese than a bagel.
