long after the Ball
Cinderella washing dishes
in Dr Scholl's slippers

nursing home
he waters the plastic flowers
they're growing!

wallflower
may I have this dance?
he asks the wall

bumper cars
this one's for the van
that cut me off!

patches and holes
from garden pruning—
trendy jeans


**far less expensive than the pre-manufactured ones!! Saw this in a recent fall designer jeans Catalogue:

Here is a sneak peak
at our trendy fall line of
DESTROYED JEANS.
Guaranteed 20 or more  
rips, tears, holes & frays
front and back with paint
splotches throughout.
Wow! Only
$149
  
Finally (just in from Europe)
we are proud to present our
TOTAL DESTRUCTION  
denim for the upcoming season
with HUGE rips, tears, holes, frays
and paint splatter everywhere!
Guaranteed to look like it's
been through a War Zone
after a losing battle
$499

Thank you for the smiles, dear Al! They are all great!

And those jeans? What a crazy psychotic world is the designer's world. Holes and rips etc. become a work of art and their prices show it!

Much enjoyed.

Love,
Margherita

JL, Margherita, Lori, Suthern:

Glad these seem to be working its humorous intent, altho (as Lori points out) there may be some deeper underlying meanings to unravel under the iceberg.    

Thanks ALL!
