The Cut Above

(c)carol voccia
March 2010

............
Woven in finest fabric

Strong, resilient, colorful

Holding fast the cut

Stitched tightly with a bending stretch

Carefully fitted for long wear and style

Room for a pocket watch, folded green

And keys to a future

Warp and thread top shelf grade

Soil and fade resistant to the onslaught

Of bleeding earth, ebbing tides and even heaven

This suit

Made of you

Its tag hand sewn across the left inside pocket

“Custom, 100% natural, self made of highest quality”


Written for Jesse when I believed in potential
