My Avatar

I am not my avatar.
My hair is not dark.
My beard is full, and greying.

I'm not wearing a beret;
I wear my thinning hair,
a natural tonsure.

This orange cat
looks nothing like
my cat. She's
a grey tiger.

That's not my regular smile.
I smile askew, and
it's often hidden.

That's why
I don't have an avatar.
