The found poem above was taken from the short story “Lather and Nothing Else” by Hernando Tellez. It was told from the perspective of a barber, and he was the protagonist in the story. In the short story the barber was secretly a member of the rebellion. One day, the leader of his hostile force came to his barber shop for a shave, his name was Captain Torres, and he was the antagonist. It was a great opportunity for the barber to murder Captain Torres, and in this passage the barber faces an internal conflict of whether he should kill Captain Torres. In the beginning of my poem it says, “My hands shaking like a regular murderer, the razor kept descending right near the great vein.” This shows how the barber had a great opportunity to kill Captain Torres. Adding on, the next sentence says “A murderer or a hero? I asked myself.” I think this was a good sentence because it shows how he was really struggling internally, questioning himself whether he should kill Captain Torres. And the last part of the poem says “How many of ours had Torres sent to their death? How many had he mutilated? But does he deserve to be killed?” In this sentence he thinks of his companions in the rebellion force that was killed by Captain Torres, but he asks himself if it’s fair for Captain Torres to pay for it. Finally in the drawing below shows a razor (a knife that barbers use to give a shave) with blood on it, this drawing can represent the barber’s imaginary of killing Captain Torres.
