The hair makes me look shorter

The hair makes me look shorter

A Story by Jon Roggie

I know.

When I was younger, 
 the hair did add a few inches.

I was running around in the eighties.

Now,
 people look at you a little different.

I think of my options.

Shaved head, 
 no other hair besides my eyebrows.
I look like a biker,
 or maybe a priest.

I know.
 Odd combination.

All of the random mixes look the same.

It is simply because people don't know me.

Full head of hair seems to make me more acceptable 
Adding a beard,
 with a pair of glasses,
and now I become someone you might see in the holidays.

Same person,
 just more approachable.

I think I will let my hair grow.

Now,
 if I could do something about my eyes...

Jon, the pictures you paint with your words are absolutely brilliant. Full head of hair, beard and glasses you sound very handsome.
You have already done something about your eyes... added glasses. Don't change a thing now.
