Permission, a Life Lesson

I held aloft the wash of locks

the colloidal form to wash in warm

then realized the reason why

it wouldn't flow, its lack of go

was in compression without the air

behind to push from pressure there

applied upon yet by compression

lack of pressure cause suppression.

I gently held the pliant shape

compressed it thus as to inflate

with fresh new air to fill it up

then pushed with care into my cupped

hands that then did realize

new air is needed to materialize

the push within from pressure too,

the lesson learned from mere shampoo.
