The Man with the Bald Head

Tell me it isn’t so.
A Buddha head tattoo’ed
on a bald man’s head,
the swollen lips purplish blue
as one might find at death.
the outline of head matching
that of the bald spot on his
head, the poor guy.
Dressed in his purple-red
striped yoga pants and
Sarah Palin designer glasses,
he waited impatiently to
get his high blood pressure
medication at the pharmacy.
How fitting.
