Coif Duty



They called me from the clipping joint.
Alright already. Got the point.
I sought a trim.
My roots were grim.
What master would I trust, anoint?


My mane’s now overcooked and fried.
My wallet has been diced and dried.
The mirror scares.
Egads. My hairs!
At least, I can contend I tried.

I begged them for a slight retouch.
But it appears they did too much.
A horror flick
Might suit this chick.
But now I’m broke. Can we go Dutch?
