When one size fits all

When one size fits all

A Poem by andrew mitchell

In a world
tailored made
sex was the
fashionable
throw away line
while love wanted
to keep it.
In the rag trade
a silken touch
a stitch away
from being frayed,
wear while you can.
Stripped back
the naked flesh
one size fits all
a member’s club.
Across the road
a barber shop
and all its trimmings:
while on parade
sex sells but
there are no buyers:
it’s shop until you drop,
the big sale on attraction.
Can I help you Sir?
Anything of interest?
No I’m shopping not buying.
Down the road
a lonely old shop
a sign says
love for sale.
