Poem #15


1987

there was an outfit I wore in
the sixth grade that I thought
was the coolest thing ever and
in retrospect I still think might be

an oversized dropped-waist
scooped-neck yellow and
black buffalo-plaid flannel
jumper over a red leotard

a white button-up shirt on top
open and knotted at the waist
and tied around my neck a
narrow piece of black lace
