Bristles among a glass
mirror, faces
up and seen.
Many hands touched this oak
that of child's hair once impasse
The hillside tree,
cut of trim,
bristle that pain,
from the tip of the
crown head,
some time bald, some thick
of coarse wool.
Today I see you among
the silk thread that lies
between the crown head, and
the neck. Of many sat before me,
and used me once more.
