Bad Hair Day

Oh wretched Kink!

Why do you insist on curling this Way
when the other Strands all curl that Way?

Why do you resist the Hairbrush’s
Attempt to tame you into Submission?

To the Left you stick up –
a hispid sore Thumb!

Why are you so stubborn -
oh why will you not yield!

Come on, now,
People stare –
they will stare!

Decide now:
will you willingly let yourself be patted down in to Place
or will you only succumb under the Weight of all their
    Stares?

Ask yourself:
is it worth It –
are you prepared for their Onslaught?

What?

I don’t know why People stare -
maybe they stare because you stick out
out of Place -
and I don’t know why People care -
maybe they care because it is vital
that Everything should be in Place!

So, willful little Kink,
have you decided,
have you an Answer?

In any case,
here comes the Rollers
and dry Heat!
