The Style, by Wesley O. Fillmore      ☆☆☆☆☆
(a poem)

The young man cut his shining curls, Joy of his mother and all the girls, Marched with the men and fought and swore, And grimaced through the smoke of war, Because it was the style.

The years have bent his ramrod back, Made him warier of attack, And flecked his chevelure with gray. He barbers it the selfsame way, Because it was the style.  Updated: 16-JAN-2000
