Ode To My Uncle Bob's Mustache

A Poem by queenbattyliv

Ode To My Uncle Bob's Mustache
My Uncle Bob has a mustache
that is
soft as a satin pillow.
When I see it twitching up and down
as he talks,
I smile.
It wiggles when he speaks,
like a worm 
stuck to his face,
moving its silken black head
in time to the words
coming from his mouth.
Thin or thick,
long or short,
it changes every time
I stop by to visit him.
He likes to try 
new styles.
Once he dyed it a bright red,
curled up in a twirl,
and currently,
it's so small
that his nose
hangs over it
like an umbrella
shielding it,
almost touching his lip.
But my favorite is
when it's black,
a natural black,
glinting in the light
as if it had eyes
reflecting the sun's
bright personality.
