As I sat on the subway staring at my reflection --my favorite passtime-- in the empty advertisement display case, it dawned on me, as things often do, that widow peaks are a rare and undervalued commodity in this day and age.
I understand that it is genetics which provides us lucky individuals with the edgy hairline secretly envied by many, but it seems tragic to see the rounded hairlines of the masses.
This makes me wonder, what does it all mean? Are those with widows peaks gifted with some unique potential? Do widows peaks innately hold beauty or are they simply bestowed on already beautiful people?
So many questions with so few answers...
I believe it is my duty as a self proclaimed "widowpeaker" to follow in the legacy of the great widowpeakers before me. I think we all know the admirable man of whom I speak...
Just as I have remarked on the absence of the Donner Party from the public eye, so too do I feel a void of widows peaks.
I would like to report a travesty. The second result on Google after Wikipedia for "widow's peak" is "How to get rid of a widow's peak." As a fellow widowpeaker, I am offended. Perhaps the masses just can't handle our beauty.
