Hair

Hair 


My hair fell out after I was caught
With Rona— fellows, quarrelsome,  
As my power curled out roots.
Roots out, power went, curls dropped. 

Like Samson, strength blossoming 
Along with my tresses, my virtue 
Rose with these white clouds draped 
Around my shoulders— Medium like

Miming as a dowager full of wisdom, 
Delilah, with her womanly diligence, 
Struck Samson, no sage, by shearing 
Locks— rape of the locks if you care. 

Only now have I learned to rest easy 
With my absent hair— filaments
