Client or patient Tonsure or cutting tonsils Come sit in my chair Entrusting your hair to a stylist is the same as putting your life in their hands. Anyone that has experienced a haircut will say the same. (lol, not joking, though) So the logic of literally trusting them with your actual life tracks for me. The early modern man felt that way, too. (#nochoice) Barber-surgeons did it all. From haircuts to amputation, they were your one-stop shop. Just look for the red-and-white stripes. #justatrimthanks #noreallyjustatrim #thismanisdying #quickcallthebarber #causeyoureworthit #earlymodern #barbersurgeon #haikuesday

Today's #haikuesday is a shoutout to that underpaid, undervalued, and mal-treated subdivision of the healthcare industry. You know who you are. Apothecaries Poisoning, scheming, healing What do they not do?

To eat the world's due Famine where abundance lies Too cruel, tender churl. Me roleplaying as a telegraph operator. I think Shakespeare would be pleased with all the money I saved him. Trimmed the fat, as it were 😂. His point might not be clear anymore, but that's the risk you take with telegrams. And haikus. You're also going to forgive me for not being a method actor. A real operator would've spelled out the commas and end with 'STOP'. Maybe next time. p.s. he's talking about beautiful people not making babies and how he would like you all to knock that off. (well, he's really talking about a specific person here but we're going to go with a broad 'general application' approach) So if you're beautiful, please get on with it.
