Trichotillomaniac.( A helluva title)

You'll only chew off your foot

when you're stuck in a rut

but the trap has already been sprung,

suspended,

hung up high and dry,

there to pull out your hair

watching the world going by and

you'll know that

you're going nowhere.

 

They will throw you a dime every time you cry wolf

when the sheep in you just wants to sleep but

when it's pitch black out where, the

wolf stirs from his lair

only then,

will you

start to worry.
