Your Magesty's Request

___________________________________________________________________________________

He convened the finest minds of her gender,
giving each possessor of said mind an index card
and a black Sharpie.



Of your magestic, monumental mentality
I request an answer:
If possible, how can a man's haircut
cause an earthquake?



Three of the magestics had the same response, more or less:

We do not reveal gender secrets nor gender oddities.


But three individual answers were noted:

Earthquakes can be set off by virtually anything.

For a single, simple gesture to set off an earthquake,
it is best to examine the tectonic plates inside her head.

The haircut is merely a catalyst, there must be a deeper issue
that is causing the earth to shift vibrantly.


He got down on his knees and prayed.
He prayed for one and only one thing:
Instant and multiplicative hair growth.

  1. Something that was loved, known to be loved, is unnecessarily removed. "Why would one do that?" one has to ask. He knew I loved it so. Why did it have to go? What did the removal show? That he could cut a flower from the ground?

    1. About A millionaire and his fortune:
      Unfortunately, if you combine the nouns
      with the personal pronoun
      in the middle, what you get is........MISFORTUNE

    1. A million hairs often disappears
      for much less than a million reasons...
      if only curled black fibers were
      what he had to offer
      then there is
      but an empty coffer

  6. It is not the lack of hair, but there reason that it is not there
    It is like the woman who gets a new hairdo when she sheds her man
    It is to say: I'm gonna shave that girl right outta my head.
