The Pied Pipers of the urban Metro
The mannequin;slender,stiff,pink coloured,waxen
Smooth and shiny , glossy, perfect shape
Passers by, window shoppers pause and gape
Pretty designer dress draped on the mannequin
Tall,grecian featured He Man;slim waist,broad chest
To the dark skinny streetwalker seemed to jest
Looks at the zippered jacket and denim jeans
Digs into his purse and spends beyond his means
Returns home ,wears the clothes just purchased
What he saw in the mirror left him amazed
"What a transformation! I feel like a prince!"
The special evening out he wore the dress
Longing for someone whose looks would caress
His breathing body ;thoughts of the mannequin etched
He thought and tried to be the one at the shop window
Miserably failed in the act ; none stared at him
Thoughts went for a sixer hit by a willow

Wow this is a great poem!!! I really really like it a lot! Fantastic to read. But I have to say I found the color a bit obnoxious. Haha dont let me get you down though it was wonderful :D
Thanks so much for your appreciation & truth about the color
Thanks so much for your appreciation & truth about the color.Truthfully, I never had anything particular in mind while selecting the colour. Maybe I'll change it Mr Daniel.
