The Wrong Colour

by Amy J. Kline (Insomnia) - Virgo

I wore
the Wrong Colour
to my sister's wedding,
and was quite pleased
with myself.

An ankle-length skirt-
Black, of course...
and a black
(partially see-through)
lace blouse
to match.

Black platform boots
and I couldn't forget
the black spiked dog collar
or the big silver cross neclace
whose form
is shaped by skulls.

I suppose I could have dressed
a little more conservatively,
instead of something
like a cross between
a funeral and a heavy metal concert...

But I couldn't help myself.  :)
