Melbourne Candid Series #1168 Collins St

 


On Collins Street he makes his way,
A chap in shades, bold in display,
His hair — a wild Ace Ventura crown,
Suede upon suede as he strolls downtown.

A swagger of humour, a comic air,
The city glances, but few quite dare,
To match such style, so brash, so free,
A walking jest in the CBD.

  1. I just cannot ignore the fact that you are actually good at making poems, or maybe you are a poetry reader. Still, you remain behind the dark glasses.
