COUNTING ON IT

Recklessly,
I've been practicing naked—at making this 
pretty weird

mug the whole morning;

over and over—
for hours 
in my cold bath-

room mirror (I've been told
if I'm not 
careful—it just might!

stay that way)—Okay,
but which one?
I'm guessing,

at this point—
you're
probably asking? Only

the craziest! And
riskiest!—
And definitely most screwed-up

and difficult-
to-master 
kisser I can muster, mister—

My face. 
The first one.
The only one 

that couldn't have looked—
this bad.
