"Rain Today" (by Joe DiMino)

Rain predicted today
Guess I should get out a cap
protect my bald head

Strange the nature of things
when I was younger
I couldn't wait
to be uncovered
prance around in the mirror

Now clothes are more
important than time
in fact
I shudder
at bare moments
shriveling before my eyes.
