Hair

HAIR
Combing my
Dark, greasy hair,
It waves and curls
"You look like a beatnik,"
Calls my brother.
I washed it last week
But hair is a funny thing -
The shampoo never
Stays on long and
Natural oils take over
Within a couple of days.
"I'm not worth it!"
I think,
And dream of peace
And tranquility.
