Did you ever think about hair?
Hair, the growth is everywhere.

Out bodies are a garden of hair.
It's overhead
and in noses and ears.
Lashes and brows
and on face and napey neck.
It goes down our back
up our belly and chest
not to mention legs, toes
and private places.
And I get a fuzzy little growth
on my tongue
after a long night out

We got hair styles
for those with plenty.
Wigs, toupees, paint and pieces
for hairlines on the move.

We dye it, frost it, part and kink it.
Roll it, curl it, tuft and twirl it.
No matter what color
red, blonde or brunette
pubic, pubescent
or silver gray
we are slaves to our hair.

Stubbles and whiskers
get scraped every day
with cremes, lotions and after shave.
Or we grow
Mustachioed soup strainers
and curly handle bars
sideburns and muttonchops
for lips and cheeks.
Goatees, iron jaws
peach fuzz and Van Dykes
adorn our lips
and chinney chin chins

We brush, crop, curl and set
shave and wax v-shaped places.
Pluck eyebrows into shape
lift up lashes
pick it from our clothes
and shave a runway for our hose.

It's feathered, pinned
swept and blown.
Made to be shaggy, frizzy
fuzzy, downy, fluffy and furry.
It's ratted, ironed
up in a bun
or hanging in a shag.

We have ringlets, crimps
ponytails
widowpeaks and cowlicks.
Shocks of
hanks of
tousels and mats of it.
Plumed, tufted, paged
crested and piled
or just in a shake and go.
Bangs
bobs and knots.
Crewcuts, flattops or a buzz
butches and d.a.'s
pigtails and pompadours.
Spike it or let it fall.

There are fullheads and not
shocks and mops
manes, fleeces
locks and tresses
permanents, coifs and waves.
Afros au natural
processed and shiney
or set in rows of corn.

And if that wasn't enough

We have hair raising movies
to stand our hair on end.
Hairbrained ideas and schemes.
Hair triggered tempers and guns
we keep a hairbreath apart.
Irritating hair shirts
and camel haired coats

We are shampooed and conditioned
tweezered, combed, netted and blown
in shoppes of beauty and barbor
by stylists and 'ticians and snippers
all for Our Crown of Glory.

For me
I just use a bowl.
