Wiz with the Sciz

so much more than a haircut

entertaining
energizing
neuroses exchange

hip hop hipster

be-bop bipster
talk of the hood

banter spills out

fast, faster,
snip-snap snipster
clumps of bray hair
hit the black and white checkered floor

a quiet man listens on the zebra striped bench

chartreuse molding collects curlicues of dark hair

“Stigs” says the Wiz

my grandfather
the greatest ballplayer on the planet
he lived in Kingston
people said he was shit.
