I used to groom without a care,
Now the bane of my life is unwanted hair.
It grows in my ears, and in my nose,
It even grows between my toes!
I use my clippers, I try to pluck,
It won’t come off, I think it’s stuck.
Some nail scissors might do the trick,
Except the hair is much too thick.
I wouldn’t mind, I wouldn’t care,
But where it once was, it is not there.
Once ‘pon a time I had a full head,
Now I’m afraid I resemble an egg!
My legs too were once woolly and hairy,
Now, it’s true, they’re bald and scary,
It’s also a shame they’re so pasty and white,
Undressed, I must be an awful sight.
Now and again my eyebrows need attention,
They grow so long, they’re like hair extensions,
I guess you could say they’re nice and plush,
But all I see is a wiry bush.
My pubes, now they continue growing,
Soon my shorts will be overflowing,
But maybe someone with some insight
Could tell me why they’re turning white?
Hilarious! The mystery of the unwanted hairs … 🤣🤣🤣
It’s so strange to notice them grow at weird places … what’s the use of that?

Lol! What a great poem! Isn’t it strange how the eyebrows start growing outwards in middle age? I’ll publish my effort tomorrow…

The worst thing about my eyebrows was that I once had some clippers where the cut was variable, so I’d wipe them completely!

Follicle follies. Still, not so hairable. I wouldn’t mind my legs going bald, not in the least. Something to look forward to 😉

You will be pleased to learn that I really do have less hairy legs than when I was younger. So you have only a few years years to wait. The trouble is, all those other places…

Ha! Can’t say I see myself balding. I had such thick hair the first three decades of my life, and since the kids a bit less thick, almost a blessing. As far as the other places….that’s what buzzers and tweezers are are for, right?

I used to find wax was pretty effective (scratvh, scratch).
Ah, something I guess we all try… once!

Brutal. Not even for the handsomiest hottie in the world. Small Buzzer is all that is need.
