Ode To My Hatred Of Khaki

Find Some Comfort In This Uncomfortable Land,
Lay Some Blankets Upon The Sand,
Roll Those Pebbles Along The Beach
Until They Become As Smooth As Pearls.
...
Oh Oh...
...
One Of Vanity Arrives
Mantled In A Soft Sweater
Sweating Not One Drop,
Heading To A House Of Wedding Dresses
In The Middle Of A Heat Wave.
