Blue Steel

Leather haberdashery, leather holster,
Blue steel, steady hands
Nerves controlled,
eye on the mark,
Squeeze, slow and steady,
Eruption and bullseye.


Premium Member Insouciance on Display

        At the haberdashery and milliner’s
            insouciance on display

        Models’ eyes as cold as ice
            about to ruin your day

Unsatisfied of Others

Great girdle! She cried. 
What happenstance have we happened upon?
Have the two nitwits knocked themselves silly with hammers?
What is the sensitivity they seek so?
She heaves humbly a sigh sumptuously,
As if the scene had the heavenly smells of Harvard halls, the musk of her haberdashery
And wondered how she could fit into such a simple equation

The Queens Bed

The Queens Bed 

There's a certain symmetry in mis-shapes 
A Correlation of zig zags
A pyramid of Mish mashery 
Of Golden haberdashery 

A prism geometry forgot 
Disfunctional patterns
Of a Diamanté Zodiac
A Tessellating Mosaic

A crazy jigsaw of zany gems
Adorned the Queens four poster bed
A Crystalised Diadem 
The perfect fit for her head

Premium Member Away In a Haberdashery

Away in a haberdashery,
No hat for me head,
Groom’s attire is needed
For me to be wed

Many months did me have
To find fitting apparel,
That there’s nothing me size,
Has me over a barrel

Me bride-to-be told me
To shop early on,
But me indecision 
Has left me undone 

We wed on the morrow 
So what’s there to do?
With nothing to wear,
Not even a shoe!

Premium Member she was outrageously glitzy and gaudy

She was purposefully brazen, garish and flashy
Daughter of Lee, who owned a haberdashery
Her outfits were razzle dazzle, glaringly loud
That’s my daughter, her daddy bragged to the crowd

People lined up to gawk to see what she would wear
Some of them made fun of her ensemble, but she did not care
Others yelled mean things to her – vulgar and tawdry
She loved being known as outrageous, glitzy and gaudy

Premium Member Ciggys Day Out

Ciggy’s day out this is just another normal walk but where shall I go to the haberdashery or to the local library on this wonderful February day. I think I will start at the library and look for a book on an auto harp or maybe a book about a calliope. So I can use them in my collaboration latter today. I am a little thirsty I think I will get a soda in an aluminum can of course with no algae. Now back to my condominium I will go cuz it’s time to start my live web show.
