Famous Person’s Face:
Mousier! Mousier! You there, mousier, with plume so proud.
Come closer so that I may get a better look. Good God, sir!
No man has yet warned me to duck when you about-face as such!
I mean no offence, but, good sir, are you aware of the growth on your bill?
My apologies. I knew not that that is, in fact, your actual nose.
Have you ever considered chopping off such a grossly gargantuan snout?
Perhaps wear something smaller to pull focus away from it, such as, France?
While your distinguished brow beneath your cap attempts to do this, if falls short of a remedy for your grotesque nostrils.
Your pointed mustache thrusts outward like swords you so often cross with others.
Your eyes, vibrant and lively yet sadly solemn and determined. Like the surface of the ocean at night that seems a beautiful blue against the dark sky but upon closer inspection is revealed to be cold and ashen.
No matter how far you stretch that prideful smile across your aged face, your pain is always visible. Your struggle always as apparent and obvious as your incredible nose.
