It's quite topical isn't it - everyone has a haircut at Christmas.
The David Bowie reference, in case no-one got it, was a line from 'The Jean Genie':
"She keeps all her dead hair for making up underwear."

Yay haircuts
Loved this, it was fun to read, and too true. That is a very good question, where DOES it go?
Yaaaay David Bowie. =D

I like the image this brings to mind:
My arms and body ’neath a purple cape -
A superhero who couldn’t escape -
- so even superheroes need haircuts? And I have no idea what David Bowie has to do with recycled underwear, though I do have quite a lot of his music.

Hi Tony
That's a good one, "I sat, an armless ape, in near despair, thinking of recycled underwear"
. Many happy returns of the day for your daughter. Tell her I'll be there to partake of the B'day cake.

Hi Troosha and LovelyLadyMonk - what a great name!
I don't really know, Troosha. As long as something has happened during the day that I haven't talked about before, to get me started, the process just sort of takes care of itself. That's why I like doing sonnets - it's cheating, really. But who cares. As long as I have a method by which I can churn things out, that's the main thing!
Nice to see you too LLM!

How do you do that?
You take a simple topic (like a haircut) and twist it into a whimsical sonnet. You make it look or sound so easy....
