QUOTE(annxmakoolet @ Mar 8 2005, 12:09 AM) hehe i dunno if its about hair being cut off? i just got the couplet.. haha  yah im pretty sure that came from the rape of the lock... you can look it up and maybe that will help in your analysis... but basically in the old days if a girl gave a guy a lock of her hair then that was some pretty serious relational stuff... this man really likes this one woman and decides he'll cut off a lock without her knowledge... and basically his ill will is doing the cutting and the instrument talked about are the scissors... i hope that helps abit |
