Neck­beard

by

You will know when I’ve stopped car­ing about life. You will know when I’ve giv­en up all hope. You will know be­cause I will ar­rive on your doorstep sport­ing a neck­beard. It will be thick and bushy and rather nasty to be­hold. But un­til then, if you see me clean-shaven or with fa­cial scruff or with some­thing cre­ative above the lip or be­side the ears, you will know that hope remains.
