Bald and Hairy

"It hurts bald men as much as hairy men to have their hairs pulled out." ~Seneca The bald man moans for his house, rooted up, dripping above the sewer. A q tip might plug it. Alcohol might fix it for weeks. The hairy man sues for his house, shooted up miles above the hustle. An underhanded tip will save it. Alcohol could cover it forever. Seneca's hair must have covered his eyes.
