How Heavy Is Hair? Poem by David Whalen

How Heavy Is Hair?



I Lost fifteen pounds
Over this past year…
but my pot gut and love handles
are still “hangin’ in there”

The only notable change
Is that my bald spot got bigger
And it’s really not strange
that my hair got thinner

So, it leaves me in
a state of confusion
And there’s clearly, only one
Question and obvious conclusion

The conclusion tis:
When in the mirror I stare…
that the big question is
… just how heavy is hair? …
