Acquainted with the Knife

I am one acquainted with the knife

I have fat removed--and injected again

I have molded myself into a youngish wife

I have lifted my face and ignored the pain

I endure the surgery because I am no jock

And I can’t rely on my too-average brain

I have stood still and stopped the clock

Time is creeping up on me yet again

And I need to have my body as hard as rock

Don’t ask me to stop this self-mutilation

I know all too well that old age is full of strife

Old women with saggy bottoms never have fun

I do what I do to maintain my life

I am one acquainted with the knife
