The found poem was found on page 4 of the novel “Lather and Nothing Else” By: Hernando Tellez. The Conflict of the story is Man Vs Man, The Protagonist is the Barber and The Antagonist is Captain Torres. The conflict of this story is important because the Protagonist, the Barber, was having an internal struggle between wanting to murder Captain Torres or not, each decision had its consequences, and the Barber was going back and forth between whenever to murder him or not, while shaving the man’s beard, but before Captain Torres left, he came to find out if the Barber would kill him or not. And hopefully the Barber know knows to watch his back.
