I MISS MY UNDERWEAR

I MISS MY UNDERWEAR

I miss my suit navy blue
the buttons on my Ralph Laurens
crispy white
the times I could tie my shoe
and the nights my bladder made the loo

most of all I miss
my Calvin Klein underwear
boxers, briefs, high rise, low rise
any kind of rise
Speedos that set hearts reeling
Jockeys with that special feeling.

yet when all is said and done
the packaging may change
but the merchandise is still the same…

it's true that quite often we develop a bond with even in animate things for varied reasons...the feel...sentiment...superstition....these aspects are thoughtfully brought about in this write...

Thank the Powers that be that there are adult diapers. Besides, when all is said and done, I'm still a handsome son-of-a-gun. :)

Love to you, Rosinella,

Joe

Love to you, perhaps you might inspire R.L. signature ..........you could be the spokesmodel.

I'd pay to see that.
