Day 8: Write for 10 minutes beginning with "I used to think..."

I used to think that beards were gross

but now I just know better

Before I wouldn't get too close

and my beliefs were a fetter

I like burly beastly bearded men

but this is something new

Oh, imagine what could have been!

if I'd staged a face hair coup.

I like them below an old baseball hat

or above flannel plaid

a 5 0'clock shadow or a nice one big and fat

no facial hair is bad.

I rescind.
