On Picking Out A Piece Of The Sky





It’s very hot here in Chicago these are my shirts
fresh from the laundry room and hanging in my closet
ready to go you can’t tell from this composition
which of the shirts are tee shirts and which shirts have long sleeves
and I desaturated the color a little
although in real life all of the colors are grayed down
but in real life it is very easy to sort out
which of the shirts are tee shirts and which shirts have long sleeves
I knew a woman who had a very big closet
and every piece of clothing was sorted by color
so when she opened her closet it was a rainbow
and when she took out a piece of clothing to put on
it was like she was picking out a piece of the sky
to wrap around herself but she didn’t think that way
she picked out ‘tops’ to make her breasts look this way or that
and ‘bottoms’ that would make her butt look this way or that
it was like she was picking out a piece of the sky
to wrap around herself but she didn’t think that way.

It’s very hot here in Chicago these are my shirts

ready to go you can’t tell from this composition
which of the shirts are tee shirts and which shirts have long sleeves
but in real life it is very easy to sort out
which of the shirts are tee shirts and which shirts have long sleeves.
