Silk is Always Appropriate

One morning

after a flight

I woke up

on my friend's couch

She wanted

to take me

to brunch

I was

wearing the dress

from the night before

I was worried

I said outloud

I can't go

My friend wondered

why

I told her

I can't wear silk

to Saturday brunch

She laughed

and glanced

at her wall

There she was

Miss Holly Golightly

in Givenchy

I forgave everyone

on the spot

again
