"They Say" -- Unintended Poetry, EditedByClay

They say hairdressers
sometimes have more
than a pound of hair
in their gut when autopsied.
Little pieces of hair
get everywhere. Fall
into food, into drinks.
It's inevitable.
Hairdressers also have
a lot of lung problems
from inhaling
fine
hair
shards.

Hi Rhonda, I haven't crossed paths with your posts in quite a while. Glad I caught this one. Is there a hairdresser in your family?

I have a new chapter of my novel Andromeda posted
stop by and check it out
I was a hairdresser for over twenty years. I hate to think how much hair I'm packing around.
