Sinatra Strangeness

 

 

My husband is a twin but he thinks

of himself as a hammer. His brother

is a screwdriver, but they have

the same handle. Their faces

the same, their hair differs. The hammer

combs and parts his hair. The screw-

driver has a buzz cut kept erect

with butch wax though time embraces

and thins each scalp. Don't lament

your loss, I say, forget about wasting

your money on so-called hair remedies.

A discussion of Frank Sinatra's hair plugs

monopolizes the conversation.
