A New Fashion Trend - Or What I Learned On the Web Today

New fashion Trend There’s a new fashion trend that has my heart achin’ A scarf that looks like a raw slice of bacon It’s made of silk crepe that looks crisp and all crinkly Like some bacon uncooked before it’s all wrinkly There’s a border that’s black like the bacon’s been smoked And a lot of pale silk for the fat they evoked And of course the top half is all pink and read For that is the meat on which we’ve all fed For just one-sixty Franks and a small shipping fee You could buy this for Christmas and then give it to me Then my inner GaGa would jump for sheer joy No, I just changed my mind, I forgot I’m a boy!

So you can attest that I do not make these up - I just report what I see and like. I couldn't resist the GaGa reference. Thanks for noticing. Mike

That's why I write - to share my odd thinking with others that might not think me that odd or are of the same ilk as I. Thanks for reading my work. Mike
