The Tie The shirt is coarse The collar chafes The knot of the tie Too tight. My breath constricts Except at night When the day Has lost its vie. I would shed The shirt And collars chafe But I cannot shed The tie. |

Sy, I am at the point in my life where I try not to let anything tie me down, bind me. It is not worth the headache. |

Wow Sy... I think we can all go through any number of external outfits... but it's always there isn't it? What you know...how you lived, how you were taught, what you absorbed. Awesome read.
