Excellent writing and smooth flow with absolutely excellent structure and a release of vision as if it was actually candy for the brain!

    No worries it is supposed to be read as a complete poem but being divided takes away from it a bit...

Ok so I have read them in the wrong order. Don't think it really matters. I don't really get these poems or what you were trying to say, but the words were still a pleasure.

Hello Bicpen
I love the dialogue made me smile and just thinking men act as bad as some of us gals about how they desire to have their hair look
Thank you for your humor.
fun,fun

I'm enjoying these barber poems. I can imagine the different types of hair mentioned in the poem. The "hippie's" hair would seem to be the hardest to cut or style. Great poem! V.A.

Thank you for sharing your talent and humour in this little piece. Having never sat in the barber's chair, I can only say that you have captured the essence of the hairdresser too lol

One journey I make out of necessitation, my little grandson pulls my hair otherwise. Out of joy, nope, I would rather leave it well alone, go with the curls lol Net.

I hadn't read part two, and it is as fun and light as part 1 and part 3. Being a barber takes great skill and a very listening and understanding ear. I enjoyed it very much. Blessings

I like the metaphoric nature of this poem. Social commentaries and philosophical poems such as this one are given a special flavour when images and metaphors are used to enrich them. kudos
