Closed Shop

Those whose passion fashion is
might well sneer at this display
and have unkind things to say
about how backward this place
is. But I like it here. I like it a lot.
There’s nothing flash or superficial
going on and, if it is behind the times,
so what?

In any case, this is where
I’m most at home.
In my checkered shirt,
smart jacket and fine blue jeans
I cut quite a dash. No? And that’s
without spending too much cash.
