i sat today and someone brushed my hair.
(i was actually getting the dye rinsed out, but...)
she let me sit down and began to comb my hair,
she combed it for a long time.
i felt strangely placid
and i looked around
and there was a brush not really pulling my hair
but pulling it gently...

i like people brushing my hair.
i should pay people to do it for me
all the time.
