Split Ends

Frayed and emaciated,
the brown curls
lay on her forehead.
She twirled a bunch of loose strands,
around her left ear.
A few broke loose.
The betrayal of keratin?
A silent scream
A loud swoon -
She spotted those split ends.

  1. LOVED your "about me". I am sorry I don't understand poems, so most of your site was sort of an overhead transmission, but it was fun to read it nevertheless :)
