Dressing up for a dressing-down
in my old cloth suit my usual answer is to dance
dressed in a new disappointment I go blank as any messenger
dressed or undressed after a little dancing how little clothes cover us
so we lie in our stockings and drawers and all our clothes sleep
Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Monday 15 January 1666.
