    Bright white day, mute sun,

    empty sky as blank as stone

    dead air buzzes hot.



    Stillness whispers, stirs

    birds, flying lower, fearing

    western sky bruised black.



    Winds sighing, sudden

    gusts of dust, papers flying

    flash and distant roar.



    Humid smother breaks

    cold rolling in from nowhere

    raw sound shakes the walls.



    Wind furious now

    outraged at trespass unknown

    Man’s primal fear crawls the spine.

    Blades do not matter.
    Pick any fresh edge you like.
    And let technique win.

    Before I came here
    I had no idea that
    Shave groups were around

    I like pink camo
    For bows, clothes and shaving gear.
    It's just so much fun.

    Mr. Gillette speaks:
    "Never figured on fun shaves.
    You people are weird."

    Ode to Bama

    When your mind says "no"
    but your heart screams out "oh yeah!"
    best to just say "yo."

    Avons, all bottles -
    biplane, nickel, swordfish, Buick -
    all dry down to musk.
