Fashion Folly



a family
pulling together
in the tug o war of life

helping each other
co operation
the foundation
of a prosperous  society

being pressed
into  a whale bone corset
is not ideal
(for the whales at least )

this fashion folly
a thing of the past
is now replaced by
trout pout lips
tattoos and
huge bum enhancement




(you can get one of these for $60,000)

hard to believe
we ever landed a man
on the moon

  1. I'm not sure Moon landing is much of a good idea either.

  8. So accurately points out the misguided priorities of modern man!! How this inflated derriere rage started I'm sure I don't know. If someone starts a rage for pudgy grandmas, I'm in!

  9. The world is full of contradictions. Or, I guess I should say that people are full of contradictions. Some pay an arm and a leg to get a smaller behinds, others pay even more to get a bigger one. Makes no sense.

  10. I love the play on the word foundation, Rall. When I was a child, I couldn’t understand what the foundation garments were in the clothing catalogues I sometimes scrutinised in other people’s houses (my mother didn’t get catalogues). I especially enjoyed ‘pulling together / in the tug o war of life’, although I’ve never worn a corset and, as you may have read in a recent poem, I don’t want a bum enhancement!
