The Beginning of the Beginning

Prom. Crepe paper streamers Glitter and fuss Fancy dresses Ridiculous prices Stylish Tuxes. New colors, to impress Limo? What? It's not a wedding, people! It's a dance, though few will. Most will rush around, stiff in their clothes. Holding their stomachs in.

Ah, you have pierced prom's essence to the root--(to the rote, ala Canterbury Tales Prologue)--and with the prick of your pen shown how overdone it always is...Also, "It's a dance though few will" deserves to be immortalized somewhere. Bravo, Caren! :) gw
