11 Ways of a Beard

1

America would be in

A better spot

If our presidents followed

Abe Lincoln’s example of

Facial hair

2

It peeked from

The resonate box

Saying goodnight

And asking

Me to stay

3

A face sized quilt

Curling

Warming your wisdom

And definition

4

He brought us presents

I learned to

Annually look for

Someone surprising

Around midnight

5

I like your beard

Exponentially

More than Ke$ha does.

6

By waiting a few months

You’ll magically have the ability to

Cut down trees

By waiting a few years

You’ll have the ability to

Do magic

7

Between trees

I saw him

Knowing I should

But resisting

To run

8

I’ve listened to

Enough indie folk-rock

To know the

Sacred truth:

I will help you sing

9

I feel a small scratch

Where your face

Touched mine

Last night

10

Distinguished air

Without

Breaking anything

Shavings whisper

11

She wore pearls

He wore flannels

They liked it

That way
