beyond belief!
but they’d sure like his scalp for display

Women, seize me; don’t shun me.
For my mane designed by birth –
No bad hair day, I’m bald up top!
Scalp shining in manly mirth.

The hair on my head is no more.
I lost it at age twenty-four.
The X chromosome
made useless my comb
and brought shiny scalp to the fore.

The sting of her scalp,
the bite on her lip.
Her skin like a map;
the marks on her hip.
The act is one
of passion and sin,
and when it is over
she’ll say
“Take me again.”

"If we would need a boy for prom and someone would ask us-"
"I wouldn't accept him"
"But I didn't even mention his name.
I meant everybody, who it might be."
"Yeah, I am just saying"
Sigh

So many of us pull strands of hair out of our scalp
all in the name of perfection, but why chase this illusion?
There's true beauty in being perfectly imperfect.

I may have it right,
in the write,
or it may be false,
its your job,
to get going for the scalp,
I gut feel that falsk,
is what is false,
and not quite genuine,
am I right with the meaning.

Poor Sam is sans his beloved toupee
It was snatched from his scalp one windy day
'Twas last seen sailing o'er town
Sam trying to coax it down
If found call Sam - a bounty he will pay

he’d bought a skull rug for that spot
high on his head where hair was not
but …
it brought him rash and scalp decay -
one horrid nightmare’s “hell toupee”

Seafoam dreams massage deep into my scalp,
as uncomely thoughts drift drain-ward destined.
A warm, white noise water rush of comfort
cradles me back to the days of my womb home,
with the only goal of growing and thriving.

Showering
Knob all the way left
Skin on my calves
Burning crimson
Tingling with heat
Scrub it off
off
off
Scratch the fingerprints out
Of my screaming pores
Pull every hair
He ever touched
Out of my scalp
Replace myself
With new pieces
Of me

sweat on the defoliated landscape
that had once been his scalp above his nape;
thinks the mirror
is in error,
believes from the bald truth he can escape !

It fits in your palm
like flesh,
its firm plastic handle
the color of his skin.
Its bristles tingle
your scalp,
pass through your hair,
your tresses
like fingers of a lover.
Remember how he eased
that new word
across his lips: golden
tresses, giving you
the beauty of your hair.

Today I grieve... and tomorrow.
Every tear that falls
on the second jaw
is there because of gravity,
or sorrow has something
to do with it--
my leaking groundward
as fingers grasp my crown
probing deep into scalp
for an answer--
when nothing more is found
but wet scraps of hair.

I saw an alien from space
his bare scalp with panther place
octopus tufts gaze nose
"they dub me Russ," he goes
and I jumped due to your face

Untamed unruly
Insubordinate strands coiled into a restrictive pose
Chemical warfare and arson to my scalp to straighten you out
For a while you complied but you always get tangled up in a mess
Arrested for disorderly conduct
Failing to yield to a comb
Robbing me of my sanity
This delinquency I can’t tolerate
So I had to lock you up

Silly boy;
Don't you know you should be fearful of the girl who wears another person's hair on their scalp,
Don't you know that she can wear your skin on her teeth and take pictures of it?
Aren't you afraid of the girl with a crown of thorns around her head,
Don't you know a halo is made of light?
Silly boy;
Why must you be so careless?

I`ve seen them dance with Dodos at dawn
and slide down curves of a mammoth's tusk
to swim in the midst of creation`s spawn,
then define the gloaming and name it dusk.
I`ve seen them skate on the scalp of pluto
and confirm that saturn's rings are of ice;
then suspect all planets like games of Cluedo:
The who dunnit query of who made life?

I’ve bloomed past blossom season, a frame held by flesh, fragile.
Wrinkles appear now, near feet left by crow.
You see the grey in the brown, see a patch of scalp showing,
you see the change in my gait, see my once brisk pace slowing.
But you don’t see me. I am no longer desirable, desired,
nor worth a glance from afar. A smile. You don’t see me.

Chewed stalks brown corn
Skeleton dead heads of sunflowers
rotten tomatoes and watermelons
fruitless vines and weeds waist high
Purple salvia blooms shine
Orange Marigolds
**ideas---------
blooms blown
Weeds shown
stalks bare
Full hare
scalp bare
no hair
flower power showers
Sour pity hour
Powdered sugar icing
tower the sweet wower

Too many words and rhyme
but not enough
creativity
nor style or original scheme
He senses that his reign must end
His poetry becoming archaic
obtuse
Unimaginitive
Time advances his once A-OK vision
As the snow falls in Late January
The hair on his scalp is turning grey
A youth he did knew as his ideas now fading away
It is time to end the Chapter

I do not know?
She did not like what she saw,
A damsel without her locks.
Her face looks forlorn,
In mourning for her lost locks.
She did not like what she saw,
A scalp without her mane.
But her resolve tell it all,
She will just be sad in vain.
She did not like what she saw,
But wailing will give more pain.
Her resolve in the long run,
Is to see the loss as a gain.

Post Covid, my scalp has been shedding
Hair covers the pillow and bedding
There’s tresses on the floor
If I lose any more
The prospect of baldness I’m dreading!
A great deal of poetic licence about hair in the bed but since I’ve had covid I’ve noticed strands of hair on the floor and also a friend has had the same thing happen

Trump and a Trollope
Trump's favorite type of woman was a trollope,
And on horseback with her he did like to gallop;
Deeply involved;
Solution solved;
His scaly scalp was found in plate full of scallop.
Jim Horn
Intend and Apprehend
What we originally started to intend,
Terrible Trump we knew apprehend;
Magic melodrama,
Wearing a big bra,
And alive should have him skinned.

Up I looked into the pregnant sky,
and she delivered to me
existence.
It seeped into my scalp,
darkening the clustered follicles.
It danced down the deep curvatures of my neck,
discovering the virgin forests of my skin.
Through my pores, the dirt, the sweat,
it made a map out of me.
And yet,
and yet, I cannot read-
cannot follow evaporating squiggles-
Fate's writhing pen in the form of rain.
