Criticizing a Coat

Please, refuse the disguised rag That wearer still makes a hag. Be bold to say “No, thank you” While leaving “Later, see you! A coat of curious color That offers the eye pallor, Long threadbare to soonest sag And straight goes into a bag…. Delight not in robe you’ve got, Last wearer had liked it not; Underneath its arms ink blot And on its left breast blood clot. Choose the true wisdom or don’t: On this talking not a lot; In ignorance one could rot While asking A Big Fool’s “What?”
