FRIVOLOUS SATIN Glimmering, shimmering, elegant satin -- Yearning for it in Chicago, Cleveland, or Akron. Rag-a-muffin, prim and proper, or in-between, Altering the scenario from what has been. Destitute who accept cotton or polyester, Haughty who neglect and let fester Attitudes of hurt and frustration; Idealists who skim above the surface To rebuild, renew, and refurbish Society, crying for attention; Causes too numerous to mention; Multitudes agonizing in tatters Relinquishing values that matter. Caucasion, African-American, Asian or Latin, Searching for elusive, but attainable, satin. Be wary about what you're longing for, Lest with fulfillment, you slide to the floor -- Slippery, frivolous, impractical satin. . |
