 her claim to fame is a red dress it's flimsy and bargain basement priced a body-hugging dress don't'ja know she carries herself with a look that says man! rip this dress from my body the dress follows each curve with surgical precision one has not to wonder what lies underneath as she strolls down the street giving the impression she's the only woman in the world and she can pick and she can choose . . . the red dress . . . . . . her attitude . . . validates your worst fears about her she wears it like bone and skin its in her last will and testament they should bury her wearing the red dress if she's going to hell she wants to look the part ©May 19, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Jerry You have some great fun writing these things. Yeah the red dress is an icon isn't it? I think she has every right to wear it and include or exclude whomever she pleases. But, that's just me as irrationall as I can be so I have to say I really enjoy your work. true love never looks after it's own interests |

Of course she has every right, Eric. Just like women who don't dress in the screaming red to attract attention. Absolutely. Yep, I get a kick out of writing these things for sure. Thank you for your kind words, man. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Last will and testament, indeed! I've witnessed the transformation of souls that such dresses imbue upon both the wearer and the watcher. Downright scary. Michael |

Haha! I admit that it can get a little out of hand, as you say, both for the wearer and the watcher. Still, you can't say it is a dull evening as she twists and squirms into the dress and you trying to rip and tear the darn thing off her. Gotta love it! ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Shy away from anything you want, buster. This is not a poem of that type. You are stretching to think it is. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

she reminds me of this...sorry for tagging on to such a great write not wet enough out of the car she flowed one smooth leg after the other with liquidity and grace she poured across the concrete sex appeal dripped from head to toe at the crook of her finger men splash at her knees spewing words of undying love begging for just one drip and I look down at my jeans and comfortable shoes and suddenly I don't feel... wet enough and another blast from the past...lol...seems this red dress poem has brought back so memories that probably should have stayed buried long ago |
