Fashion Victim
How do you
Live a life
Wearing plaid
And denim
Bought with a
Filene’s charge card?
How do you
Think you’ll
Survive without
Getting wrinkled
Or stained
Or ripped?
Walk to the
Back of the
Mall parking lot,
Where the plow
Leans on the road
And the other
Cars are hard-knock
Primer gray
And see how your
Shiny new duds
Glow like a
Tourist t-shirt
When those eyes
Turn on you
And the tires
Start to strip
The buttons
Off your shirt
Because you’re never
Going to make it
Outside the mall
Unless you leave
The mall, and
You can’t leave
Looking like that.
