The powerful cover of artificial hair the cover on a scalp laid bare, by choice if not to fit a sect by rout...not to appear a reject A woman's hair will thin with age as all actors circulate the stage; the role wig covers tarnished crowns performers then bow...a witness frowns He attaches excess to artificial dress be it in the clothes or a crowned nest; modern day man is loathe to change weaker sex heads were shaven in vain To reduce the power of attractive forces religious acts had to run their courses; hair pieces bought to cover bare napes... marry into observance meant no escape Am still reminded of the chosen locks imbued in traditions of mental blocks, that draped the necks of men of stature and seized an audience in enrapture Powerful curls made bountiful for the royals who could afford to critise their foils, but hair lines still continued to thin didn't matter where the power had been.... The powerful cover of artificial hair covers various crowns..some say debonair [This message has been edited by ecrivan (06-22-2003 09:52 PM).] |

Enjoyed! Well and cleverly written! I might add: Bless the wig! Till oceans cease to flow and deserts lose their sands, may beauty surround you every day and wealth be in your hands. |

touchee for the toupee, a bit too hairy for me, but then I am wigless, (and hairless) in any event, enjoyable ponder. |
