The face I face each day
is really the face I would
face had I the nerve
or even the conviction
to know that I could face it
in the face of it all.
Then, just when I think
I can face it all I lose
face in the face of adversity
which is a bummer really
because losing ones face is
something, I could never face,
and although I must admit it
to your face I have never
had to face it before so I really
don't know if I could face it or not
which wouls save face if I only knew
whether or not I could face it.
When one does come to face it, one
can only guess that one can or cannot
face it which is after all a solution
to the problem one faces when one can't decided
if one can face it or not, because you
can or you can't face it so there
my friend is your solution,you have to
face it, there is no getting away from it
the face you face is always the face you face
no matter whether you can or can't face it.
So face it mate, face it.

There's alot of face in this! Very confusing at first but extremely inventive. This really put a smile on my FACE though, lol

Thanks for entering

This is extremely clever but also very true. I had to read it a couple of times just to make sure I'd got the facts about the face correct and I have.
I hope this does well in the contest...it deserves to
All the best...Sue
