Rise triumphantly
from just beneath her unshod
heels where the ruins
of haute couture's vanaties
lie in shards. Rise up; rejoice.

Author's Notes/Comments:
I woke from a dream with these lines intact not more than fifteen minutes ago. The damage done to the beauty of stockings and nylons by so-called "high fashion" is too terrible to measure; witness, for example, the condemnation of reinforced toes and/or heels.
