    Neck Tied

     the rustling silk a soft whisper,
    run my fingers over the folded edges,
    high class origami,
    the myriad of design choices
    grant the illusion of options
    dancing paisley, rigid stripes,
    colors as somber as funerals,
    the business man's chosen noose...

    My Jerry Garcia ties have kinda opened the palette up a bit. . . LOL There is a fine art to getting the tie to look tight while letting it give all day breathing room. It starts with the shirt. Harv

    simone, This poem is metaphorically and symbolically revealing. I am saving this to faves as I find it sensuous and well written. ginga

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
