Mikaela Castledine #69 Further to #64 & #67

I gave her a piece of my hair
she said it was a gift
but it felt
like sacrifice
that sharp blading of scissors
the shear reverberating through
what sounds like
a fistful
for a decade it has been
shaver short and only
in the last year have I let it grow
she took just a little for her work
but still
what does it represent
six months of my life
I will never get back
though of course
everything for art
always turns out to be worth it
