Sonnet
A Barbigerous Bastard. Content Warning.
barbigerous: bearded; bearing a beard My Connection: I worked for a decade in an environment where I wasn't allowed to have facial hair, because of the need to wear breathing apparatus when toxic gas was released. Traditionally, the men who left that environment grew beards in celebration. That's how mine originated. Today, I wear it for a very different reason.
