ex-lover reincarnated as shorts
the first time
I tried them on
I knew destiny
had tumbled
off the cracked
faded hanger
at my beloved
thrift store
high waisted
dazzling pleats
hypnotizing
my onlookers
by casual debut
of legs, legs
beneath ode
to grandmother
five dollars
spent or squandered
only time
can confess
the payoff
of parading
a perpetual
wedgie
