A very well-written poem about what we see in the mirror about ourselves are not always what we like to see, and sometimes we even see things that don't exist or it looks totally different from the reality.

That is an excellent poem! Good luck in the contest. That takes guts to admit that vanity can be a problem. Adding the Idea of dying from spandex is funny.

Dear Mystery Poet,

Cute, cute, cute -- except for the fact that I am totally claustrophobic! I've actually BEEN in that situation (more than once) and it's dreadful!! The ending was nice and cute, thank goodness, which helped me breathe again. Thanks and good luck!

Oh I do like your epitaph! Are you out of that dress yet? This is why we women of a certain age and size always need to go shopping with a friend. Loved your poem.

HAHAHAHAHA. Now this would be a bad way to go, but it would bring laughter to those who remained to read the obit. Delightful poem, and I especially liked the part about "I had hoped for a slimmer image/to impress strangers." That's a very deep and thought-provoking two lines. I really like this entry a lot. I bet it's going to put you out in front in this contest. xo

He he he, this made me laugh! This has happened to me so many times in the changing room! I have tried something on, it's a bit tight and I just can't get out of it! Panic sets in and then no matter what you do, the dress won't budge! You made me smile, love Dolly x

You have penned a very humorous scenario. A great artwork selection as well.
I have experienced that situation with my girlfriend but I knew I better not
complain about it.
A funny posting, best of luck!

This was a good write. I love it and it had humor in it. I can picture the scene now and I'm sure it has happened before and will happen again. That's why I like loose clothing. Nice job and good luck in the contest.

Hi Contest Author,

Ha ha ha! This is a really funny poem and a great mirror conteest entry. Vanity is, indeed, a toxic dynamic, yet is fueled constantly by patriarchy's objectification of women. Thanks for sharing and good luck. Jan
