Ode To Baldness Poem by C R Clark

Ode To Baldness

Rating: 5.0


Heads that shine are “oh so fine”
And mostly trouble free
No hair to fly when wind is high
They’re always slick and neat

No hairspray or Brylcreem to buy
No brushes or pocket combs
And many ladies, I’ve heard it said,
Are fond of the old chrome dome

That must be why so many these days
Full heads of hair will shave
But, you can’t shave hair that isn’t there
I got mine the natural way

Now, you men of poetic métier
Whose hair has taken leave
Just write a verse if you’d care to link
With the bald headed poets’ league

As a 'follically challenged' man myself I found this a good laugh! Incidently, I shave my head to achieve that shining chrome look... surely THAT is the answer to baldness, instead of buying dubious toupees or living with bald patches! ! !
