hot evening baths
and tears in the shower
standing in glaring fluorescence
with wet hair, fresh washed
before red mirror spotted with
blood of dead mosquitoes
big blue scissors
in one anticipating hand
quick, clutch handfuls, snip snap
floor littered with clumps of curls
barefooted
spinning sufi style till
whirling reeling giddy
clad only in
sweatshirt and damp towel
Jefferson Airplane
in the middle of the living room

I'm sure that short hair must have helped somewhere along the way. No?
