i think i'm going
to cut my hair really
short tomorrow

short, short, short:
it's a weird word, if
you think about it

any word is weird
if you think about
it just long enough

longer than my hair
will be tomorrow, for
sure, but not much
longer at all

which is saying
something, because
i'll be cutting it really
short, like i've always
been afraid to in the
past-- when i last cut
my hair, I remember
thinking it was nice to
finally let my damn neck
breathe and wishing
i'd done it sooner

change is good;
it lets your neck breathe

so i think i'll get
a pixie cut, since
my mom says i have
the face for it, and
not many people do

i wouldn't call it poetryWhere stories live. Discover now
