Dress Shop
she used to
buy her dresses
here
back when
she wore dresses
rooms with racks
of pretty pieces
and she’s standing in every room
walking through every door
feeling the fabric
eyeing the stitching
raising the hem
to fit
her petite form
and she’s asking me
what I think
of the blue one
and I tell her
“beautiful … granny
you look beautiful …”
