Hair

So indignant was I when I lost my hair

I’m a woman for God’ sake it just wasn’t fair

I became so embittered, so filled with confusion

Had my eyes betrayed me? Was it merely an illusion?

The mirror sniggered and ridiculed this apparition

The humiliation and shame intensified my condition

Nature was wicked, dishonest, depraved

What horrible error had it fiendishly made

The doctors, the pills, the creams and the lotion

The specialists confessed they had not a notion

It took several months to grasp the fact

So me and myself made a shrewd pact

Amazingly something finally twigged

I would have a go at wearing a wig
