Retail

You hang on a rail Poised in the window. Flaunt yourself to passers by. They gawp at you Then walk on by. You start to feel cheap No one cares anymore They want to swap you For a newer model. They move you to the back You've sunk to their level. Few people try you on. Your last year's fashion. Your on sale.
