BEAUTY PARLOUR BLUES Poem by Sara Russell

BEAUTY PARLOUR BLUES
c. Sara L. Russell 6/10/98

One day, at the beauty parlour,
Miss Betty Bea Vanilla
found herself in the waiting room
with a large, depressed gorilla.

“What are you in for?” she asked,
as if nothing were amiss.
The gorilla sighed as it replied:
“Electrolysis”.
