Some of the worst mistakes of my life were haircuts. - Jim Morrison
After seeing himself in the video, he ran his hands through his hair.
“My God! I look like General Custer.”
That night he came home smelling of cologne
with a haircut and a new pair of jeans,
a phone number in his wallet, and a new disease.
New stuff to offset the old him.
If it's the end of the week, it's time for flash. If you have a story in 55 words, post it on your blog and then go tell the G-Man.

Hi Brian,
Rolf...indeed! It makes me think of that song by Huey Lewis, I Want a New Drug. Be careful what you wish for. Thanks!
Ha!!! I love dialogue on blogs worth the price of admission.
Those flashy haircuts, new duds, and cologne will do it every time
what happens to women with a new haircut? (not going there)
The story, the poem, is great. I remember when haircuts did similar things to me.
Moonie,
Dialogue moves the story forward, so they say. A woman would be more careful. Thanks for commenting!
Tony,
A haircut can be a huge mistake, but I need one! I'm starting to look....disheveled, my mother says. Thanks!
To offset the old him. How can you build a twist is such a short verse? Don't know...but you did. I think haircuts are grand. Instant facelift!
Annie,
Thank you so much! That does it. I'm getting a haircut.
Hasn't he ever heard of a condom? I wouldn't take him back.
Thats ME!!!!
(Except for the phone number, wallet, and disease)
I have a Samson Complex as well!
Loved your 55 Yvonne.
Thank you so much for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End
Alice,
Thanks! I probably wouldn't either, but maybe he wouldn't want to come back....
G-Man,
A Samsom complex? That should've been my title. Thanks for hosting and coming around!
smart twists in the end, love it.
fabulous 55.
lol! Who was it that said, "Change is good?" Loved your 55!
It was going fine until that new disease showed up.
(I just got a haircut myself... sans disease, of course)
