Shampoo

take your fur coat off
take a while to stay around'
hang out
what are you thinking of
is it of that monster in your head
that won't come out?

maybe, maybe you're right
I've been too harsh on you
(shampoo, you tingle in scalps
and you got a good enough do
to help yourself. a good shampoo,
smooth it out in your scalp.)
your shadow's out for hours now.
flowers help if you burn them out.
breathe in deep.

Does he see inside?
Does he stand before the mirror
feeling horrified?
If you're leaking sighs, just remember
all of the shitty things they'll greet in time.
