Farcical Hair

I shaved my beard off.

It was lonely so it took some skin
with it.

It would't go down the sink
because it was too big
So tried flushing it down
the toilet, but
it just danced on the cresting
foam, riding out the wave
and coming out the tunnel
like a pro surfer

I scooped it out and tried to throw
it in the bin but
it clung to my hand like a
frightened infant

Eventually i unclasped its
many fingers and went out to
buy milk

BUT! my face was so cold
so i went back home
and opened the bin
and now i have a beard again
