The barber

You are the barber.
The power of words cut distinctively.
The phrase, sits patiently in the chair.
The hair is sheer with a sharp scissor.
Your styling depends on your past.
The wild hairs will cut with the tame.
To finish into a sleek version of
Interpretation.
You bring up the mirror.
And nod with approve.
