What Are You Wearing

In ‘olden’ times twas skirts and suits A polished look when on the street With crisp clean clothes and shiny shoes Attention paid, you must look neat! Then modern times changed everything Casual looks soon took their place Pants replaced skirts, hair became straight It seemed that trend had won the race! But then it traveled much too far Jeans soon appeared torn at the knees With ragged hems and worn threadbare Waists low enough to catch a breeze! Tops tight enough to show your ‘mounds’ And short enough for skin to fall In gentle ‘rolls’ of belly fat Became a trend… to see it all! The latest fad to come around… The tattered look replaced with ‘grime’ And this new look is not so cheap Four hundred bucks, you’ll look ‘sublime’ I don’t care what new fashion says I’ll wear my skirt, I’ll hide my ‘rolls’ Be clean and crisp, I’ll style my hair I will be me, till my bell tolls!
