Grilled Mongolian at the Barber Shop
An Overdue Haircut
from Miss Tasha
While I was
being shorn of excess hair
V: “Make me look like a young Robert Redford, please”
R: “We don’t do miracles here, Mr. Hall”
A lady
enthroned a few chairs over
Mentioned
the menu at The Mongolian Grill
“What the h***
is this?” she quoted herself
I thought I might ask if the plat du jour
As served
was a lightly grilled Mongolian
But
Wednesday had already made that joke
About Girl
Scout cookies and real Girl Scouts
So thoughts
of topics carnivorous I let pass
And
admired myself in Tasha’s looking-glass
