Long Haired Freaky People

I'd just as soon

forget my roots

but the tips

continue to grow

to remind me

that caution

must be exercised

lest I end up

a follicle

a craterous creature
clinging to hair
like memory to time
a mobius strip
I can't shake
despite dancing
as the moon pulls
my hips
to and fro
and from this motion
my hair recedes
the tides recede
as these roots
drink in the sea
