I feel like a fashion model today
Because I got a haircut
After three long months
That made me remember why
I never grow my hair out.
It hung like frizzy tassels
With mean street cobblestones beneath
Made me wish I had a hat.
But now, that’s finished
I am transformed
I went to the salon
And when the frizzy tassels and nasty stones
Had fallen to the floor
I stood
Strutted down the middle of the salon
With a hairdo so Park Avenue
The other patrons
Applauded.
