Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!
Empty Inside Outside
Men who have bald heads
Without one hair remaining
Without any hope of head
Hairs returning should
Count slowly in Chinese
Mandarin up to seven
While wearing seven louder
Than fire engine red ties
As he stands on one foot
At the very bottom of
The world's most loftiest
Barbershop perhaps in
Tibet below a basement
Of couse being video-
Recorded by world TV
To report the hirsute
Miracle condoned by
All the largest religions
In the world who bless
His bold bald head bearded beauty
Empty inside outside
Written by Ted Joans (1928-2003)
