    The Theme For a Fashion Musuem

    The theme for a fashion museum
    Looked to inspiration and facts
    From the hapless dead.
    Those lost in countless battles
    Or human holocausts leading
    To the Wailing wall.

    Through scorched fields
    And sacred ruins
    Walked the pilgrims of nothing.
    They strove to shake awake lives
    Like they stood anew in
    The Temple of Solomon.

    Crusading in subdued greens
    That bled beneath the surface
    They marched with an historic certainty
    Like yearning red coals
    Raked across ancient cities.
    The fashion followed
    Lost or rewritten scrolls
    Framed from a forgotten faith.

    And thus will it always be for those who seek inspiration from tradition.
