Men can't win answering a woman's question about her beauty. If you say yes, she'll think you're lying, and if you say no, she'll think that you said she was ugly.

😂Some stories say that if you tell her she’s average she won’t know how to respond and you can get away. So there’s that I guess.

When they see my smile

They don't know how

To express great joy

So they run away and hide

Wasn't there a movie about this?

Beauteous creature,

Why the mask? "Am I pretty?"

Hideous monster!

Probably? Japanese ghosts make great movies 🍿

I love how your haiku kind of highlights the superficiality of this ghost. Really cool🖤
