Quietus Proprietus (Free verse) by INTRANSIT
You should have seen her, though her Tiffany time had stopped she was in the perfect autumn ensemble ! Her pleated russet Votre-Nom slacks flowed as she kicked her tumbleweed Nine- West shoes proudly strutting out of Saks Fifth ave wearing a pumpkin Ralph Lauren sweater; a soulful salve. And neatly tucked under her arm an olive hand bag: Fendi. But none of it could defend her against the cold black Lincoln fender that made all of the pretty October colors scatter.

Funny, we each posted a womens-clothing poem at almost the same time, yours with a sadness, mine with a hope.

I like yours a lot, maybe a little jealous of her.

You hope right, but she looks enviable before that.

And your classy-dressed superwoman was probably run down because some guy twisted his neck.

No, you shouldn't. It's bordering on overcleverness now (you know the kind: the turn-of-phrase or hidden rhyme won't fit in the poem but you just can't stop yourself from including it.)

I like all of this except "she was in the perfect autumn ensemble"
