Hair
Magical Barber will trim my hair
To whatever I fancy right then and there
Not sure of what I want
Maybe I’ll dye it blonde
Picking a hairdo is tricky
I must admit, I am a bit picky
Maybe I’ll go with the feral mullet
Or maybe the 70s afro look
This decision is the toughest
But oh, what is that I see?
A new hairstyle, shaped like a palm tree
Or perhaps a pair of horns?
Or maybe spiky tufts like thorns?
Wait, I know
I’ll take the one in the mirror
Casual grinner!
