fancy dress.

I put my pants on as a hat! 
With pantlegs trailing 
back to flap, a sock 
on front for modesty, 
and topless. Since 
I had to be. 

I wore my best 
dress shoes, a frown 
and clean-shaved cheeks 
(that's up, not down) 

and that is how I went 
to town. 

Which all went fine!

Is it because this story's set
in worlds where we 
are not neurotic
anti-nature
pipsqueaks who
have hired gun thugs
just to keep our own plus
other peoples' clothes on? No. 

It is because - forgot to say - 
above it all, I shimmied on 

a gorgeous gown.

And that is how I went to town.
