long strands brown and white
stretch from twelve seasons of growth
hair like a lion's mane
***
he grew his hair so long
though many thought it wrong
it looked so damn fine
in the spring sunshine
made him feel like King Kong
long strands brown and white

***
he grew his hair so long
though many thought it wrong
it looked so damn fine
in the spring sunshine
made him feel like King Kong
metal door clangs shut
hours pass safe from winter cold
until cell opens
***
a man once went to jail
it left him feeling frail
but once back in bed
at his own homestead
he enjoyed his new tale
Congrats, you knocked Singapore and Russia off their perch to claim the number 2 spot.
