Just a little off the top. Drawin' a dotted line 'round the skull takin' your shears just above the ear. Cuttin' a close crop. Burrowin' into the skin this time 'round the skull now your clippers smilin' so chipper. Leavin' a head clean smooth. Whistlin' at a near-finished work 'round the skull peelin' back the skin bravin' a peek within. Grabbin' that comb with its fine tooth. Unfurlin' that pink mass of quirk 'round the skull eyein' where tendrils append trimmin' the dead ends.

Insanity/conformity. Memories of old barbers cuttin em all high and tight existing among memories I wish they'd trim off.
