  • Ode To The Suit

    Ode To The Suit

    a suit that goes bathing,

    a suit that’s so spare,

    a triangle of sparkles,

    it covers a square …

     

    a suit that costs hundreds,

    a suit nipple small,

    a fraction of fabric,

    it makes my skin crawl …

     

    a suit that worships,

    a suit that bows down,

    a prayer to religion,

    it’s sun wears the crown …

     

    a suit that meows,

    a suit with desire,

    a just next to nothing,

    it catches on fire …

     

    a suit is a signal,

    a suit for the eye,

    a nation of naturals,

    it’s begging to fly …

     

    a suit fills my plate,

    a suit menu rave,

    a smorgasbord all summer,

    it’s dinner time! … wave! …
