Oh, black beauty,
curling along tanned flesh
Like a snake that's been stunted
In its growth.
How beautiful are thee.
Standing out in the pale crowd
of paled, thin hair.
How i admire thee
With your resistance to being
Removed from the land
Which is rightfully yours.
Sad will be tomorrow
When you meet your end.
And i bid thee
Adieu.
Author notes
yeah, i have a little persistant black hair on my stomache that's driving my sister crazy. I thought it might be fun to write a poem about it before i let spring pluck it.

This might be more interesting if you knew what the function of an apostrophe is. I once had a lady friend who had a long thick black hair growing out of her left nipple. It survived one night only. Yum yum. Truth, I swear it by Jesus' dead buttocks.
