Went to the barber today,           Just to feel a razor at my neck. So to, skipped a crosswalk,           Just to hear a horn. I hopscotched the tracks,           But the yard’s been empty years. So then tried the bridge,           When the wind’d never come. Tomorrow’ll be lucky,           That’s what I tell myself. That’s what I tell myself.

Mining "Providence"
Went to the barber today,           Just to feel a razor at my neck. So to, skipped a crosswalk,           Just to hear a horn. I hopscotched the tracks,           But the yard’s been empty years. So then tried the bridge,           When the wind’d never come. Tomorrow’ll be lucky,           That’s what I tell myself. That’s what I tell myself.
Had my first "barber-shave" today; it was agreeable! Thought of this piece when the missus mentioned fragility and the slip of a blade no matter how strong the soul, aha!
