roll me back a week doc

the plastic surgeon tells
me that he can make me look years
younger
with just a few cuts
of the knife,
some packing, some tightening.
I can uncrease
those furrows, lessen
the lines, decrease the dark
circles under your eyes.
I tell him no, but
thanks just the same.
I just need to roll
back the clock a week,
just one week.
last week was a tough one.
