There's a beauty that doesn't care about wrinkles, and loves the attention of the admiring ear. Lovely work!
The precision/placement of words "vain surface skin contextual" is a marvelous mouthful, recited out loud; as well, the bold punctuation of the lines in the third stanza invite the reader to re-read these lines aloud, all the more powerfully and pointedly stated. And, the final line, so apt in its punctuation, and content. Perfectly concluded. A fabulous poem, as usual, Bn2f.
