An Old Man with Scissors

An Old Man with Scissors

Greet the wraiths passing
with a slice of hair
or,
"My father was a strong man"
drift softly please,
into that cold night of
forgotten conversation.
"I've got this poem on my wall,
if you'd care to read it"
Along an Old Dirt Road
consigned to oblivion.

Excellent work, seriously. Great word/phrase choices. I like the old dirt road idea combined with ghosts and shadows....mysterious.

Perceptual

I like.

thank you, I got a haircut recently from an 82 year old man with the early signs alzheimer's (his doctor had recommend he retire several times), it was a somewhat harrowing experience but it got my mind to thinking.
