I sell collectibles and art online and often find the things I've found have hilarious and at times, dark stories to tell. It's thrilling for me to be creatively random, so always expect the unexpected in the things I share with you.
The title of the haiku set me up — in a good way — letting my assumptions assume what words might follow. Because the haiku’s ending arrives so quickly, the residue of the assumptions remain and mix with the new sentiment arising from the piece. Delightful.
When I get a notice that you’ve left a comment, I usually have to take a deep breath before reading it. Lol. I never know what to expect! Um, okay, we’ll keep razors away from you then. π
Well, you keep doing it, don’t you? You really are very good at these. I wish I could write poetry, but whenever I try, they always seem to come out, “There once was a man from Nantucket.”
Having inherited my father’s unwanted ability to grow coarse stubble within an hour of having shaved, I long ago decided to grow a beard. It’s scraggly but soft.
Hmm. I do like running my fingers over facial hair on a man but not after he’s eaten breakfast! Eggs and bacon are usually found on my fingertips afterwards π
Positively crying out for an ‘Awwww’ π

I so enjoy reading your comments! The way you explain how a particular poem or story made you feel is poetry in itself! Thanks much, Doug. π·

Me? Oh! I use an electric shaver — glad you asked — razors quake my spine. Yeah.
