Fig Leaf From Eve, Fall Collection

She wore next to naught, bare birthday suit, Yet, sense of fashion was absolute. Lifting that sole fig leaf— The briefest of a brief, Said: from Fall-collection— ah how cute! ___________________________________ Tongue-in-cheek | 24.01.2020 | Topic: fashion, humour Poet’s Note: I remember to have seen a cartoon some time back. Adam and eve are shown in the Garden of Eden amidst heaps of fallen leaves. Eve picks up one meant to be her fig leaf, and says, ‘see, this is from my Fall Collection’. Almost wordless, a cartoon brings the point home very effectively. A poem too does that so laconically. What when the two combine?
