'The First Journey Of A Hair'

Tip your hat if it serves you well
and others may follow
and you'll be uncomfortable as the head of a line.

Rub your temples to deal with stress
because you have no control over what goes on inside

Purse your lips
when in a headlock

Be a man
and curse a buoy
under your breath

And now all that's under your belt....

Knocking knees are a kick in the teeth
But don't judge yourself too harshly
as a defence mechanism.

Stand on your own two feet
in a dance with yourself
and resent that you're lead.
