Care-less
Lately I don’t give a thought to what I’m going to wear,
and I’ve let my hair grow down to my derriere.
No longer do the men I meet ever stop to stare,
but it doesn’t bother me. I simply do not care.

I must admit that I do still care how I look. The poem was not actually about me but about that woman I created with the help of AI.

I don’t know – with magnificent hair like that and such a classic profile, there would surely be some stares of admiration.

OMG, same!!! I love how you expressed this. I’m one month retired now and the thought of blow-drying my hair or deciding which business suit to wear is horrid. You have captured this feeling soooo perfectly.
